That would be Opportunities and Applications - so, what are my opps and apps for this year?
The first opp is a chance to do a 5k walk/run next month here on the island. Yes, you read correctly, a 5k walk/run. On February 19th we have the Hurricane Run and I have managed to rope some of my exercise buddies into doing this challenge with me. Since we already do 3 miles on Monday and Friday and 4 miles on Wednesday, this should be a snap, right? I think we may get a tee shirt out of this, so that is a good incentive. Wish us luck.
The new app on my phone is one that reminds me of appointments/tasks and I am hoping it helps me stay on target. Since I retired, I have found that it is harder to keep track of non-recurring activities like phone calls and appointments. It seems to be connected to my gmail account. I will have to see how this works.
On the news front, the house is getting close to move in status. Another month or six weeks should see us relocated and unpacking things we haven't seen since July 2009. Woo Hoo! I can't wait to have more than one sweatshirt and all of my other clothes. . .oh yes, and my pots and pans and all of that stuff, too.
This has been fun, sort of like an eighteen month vacation, but I am now ready to get back to normal life. Having a garden will be nice, too. Lots of fenced space for Maddy to run around and a workshop for Neil. Shopping opportunities galore!
Don't forget the pool for Willow to paddle around in with her little doggie life vest and adult supervision! The house is gorgeous - Rob referred to the "Gone with the Wind" staircase and giggled... I don't think she'd have that really weird paint color, though.

Of course, we are looking forward to having Willow and her buddies come over and swim. Scarlett probably wouldn't have the WONDERFUL paint color, but then she didn't live at the beach, either.
