PreCovid prePandemic it's a thing now.

I'll keep this photo, a list on a list & a mug nobody really wanted to use 😆 

Pre Pandemic!

Our friend mentioned this this morning, it kinda took me by surprise, just like the saying pre 911, or pre Vietnam, or pre any of the events we have lived through. Yet pre pandemic is something closer in time, yet we have a memory of what it was like before the crazy 🤪 times of our covid scare, panic, well just crazy! Pre was when we were all just moving forward in life and enjoying our adventures, now we are trying all of us to continue after that time. 

I just never thought so clearly about this until Linda made that statement. Here we are now, continuing our lives after this time, trying to move forward again.  I ask now "what's next?" What will be the next even that'll put the fears back into us, to change our direction,  or make us put the brakes on? 🤔 I wonder. The war in Ukraine,  the war in Israel?

I love ❤️ the time it'll take to get home 🤗

Today we'll shop a little,  getting ready for Christmas 🎄 as we move forward in life. Got a message from our granddaughter today, she's outta debt ✔️checked off her list she's saying.  That is such a good feeling for her I'm sure. Were very proud of her. Communication with friends and family will be text or video talk during Christmas 🎄 now.  We've been through this before many times,  this year be just a little different.  

I'm looking forward to Christmas, a jump in the pool, then warm hot tub, shorts all day, dinner with Duane & Elaine Lingel & another couple at their home in Fortuna. 

Other than that time with Polly, and calling our families and friends be a big part of the day.  

Then, Christmas will be over for another year.  I always have thought so much

 ta-doo then we go on with life. No job to return to for us, so poker be our go to, and friends in Yuma to vist with, the New Year's Eve dance should be fun. Then what? Well Polly's hoping her sister be coming to stay awhile,  I hoped our friends C&A would come too, but not this year. 

Well do a little traveling yet this winter,  want to get over to Phoenix for a visit there too with good friends. Tombstone is on our radar as well. Looking like our rest of the year south be enjoying the resort,  and friends here. 

Today we shopped again, just the last few things, got all we wanted and both happy with our purchases.  We leave tomorrow for Yuma, been a very nice time here with friends, will meet them again in San Diego after Christmas with all their children, will be very nice.  

What more could we hope for, friends here, friends there, family on the text or call. Dam life is really good,  even after the pandemic. 

Love our life ❤️ here and everywhere we go.
