Jersey Boys....yes!

I finally got to see Jersey Boys (yesterday at the Forrest Theater in Philadelphia) and it was every bit as wonderful as I expected. Tom enjoyed it, too!

You're never far from HR Block

So you're vacationing in Florida. What's on the itinerary? Sun, water, dancing, golf, tennis, HR Block's 2011 Tax Update class.......... :-)
Many thanks to all my new Tampa, Florida friends...especially Rita Fowler and Tom Osborn.

Seeing Linda

One of our favorite things to do when we come to Florida is to visit with friends. Linda is coming over at 11 and we can't wait to see her. I think it was March last year and December the year before.........? Anyway, we are so looking forward. Too bad it's not sunny. :-(

Florida!

Tom and I are en route to The Roundup in Tampa. Looks like we're going to miss the lessons, but at least we'll be dancing. :-)
We had fun with John, Helen, and Bill at the Villages. Tom golfed every day...I joined them for two of the days (oh, I am such a good golfer....not!). Helen gave me some pickleball tips and we line danced with at least fifty people in one of the community centers.
Now we are in Ruskin at Little Harbor which seems very nice and we are looking forward to seeing Linda on Monday.
I wasn't expecting it to be really hot...just a lot warmer than NJ...but it was surprisingly uncomfortably hot while we were golfing on Thursday. There are heated pools here, so I am thinking swimming is not out of the question.

Giving Thanks

Thanksgiving 2011 has come and gone (although chances are we will be revisiting the dinner portion frequently over the next week or so!)

Seeing is believing!

Ok, first of all, the golf clubs are recovered, so all is well.

I have 20-20 vision now in my de-cataracted eyes and it is so much fun to drive without worrying about "where are my glasses!??" before leaving the house. :-)  I love Dr. Cohen and everybody at S. Jersey Wills Eye (especially Gail) were so so nice. Tom, of course, has been a big help with eyedrops and driving and waiting around for me. <3

I took the train to AC for the NJEA Convention. It was somewhat of a dismal day, and I overslept (don't ask who turned off the alarm by accident) so I missed the planned early train. Still, things were fine. I made some new friends and explored some new websites at Tech Hall. It would be nice to have a class to use them with, but I still prefer retirement! :-)

I am reviewing tax info like crazy in preparation for upcoming certification level exams. Wish me luck!

I am looking foward to Sugarfootin' Sunday at Prospectors. I've been staying in to get my eyes healed and all, but I figure even if the kids bump into me, it'll be only like up to my knee, not eyes! LOL

Stolen

Tom's golf bag...full of clubs and other golf related clothing and goodies... is missing. It was in his car and now it isn't. :-(
