While I appreciate all of you and your care and concern, I do wonder if you think that you should have anymore concern about my abilities to function than I have about yours. Age, you know, is just a number. I know people twenty years younger than me who are actually much older, if you judge by their capability to function. Yes, severe arthritis in my right ankle means I must use a walker to get around. Yes, I have a housekeeper who comes in every other week, but I've been having a housekeeper for over 60 years, so that's nothing new. Yes, I'm definitely slower than I used to be, but, being retired, I rarely have to rush to do anything anyway, so that's no big deal. But, do I still have enough sense to stay hydrated in hot weather, drive carefully in a storm, turn the stove off when I'm finished cooking, shop for & prepare my own meals & clean up the kitchen when I'm done? Well, yes, actually, I do. So while I appreciate that you care about my wellbeing, I'm just a little put off by so much concern about my ability to cope; hope that doesn't hurt anyone's feelings, rest assured that I am still as capable of caring for myself as I was when I was forty, and, I'm betting, as well as most of you are capable of taking care of yourselves. And, when I no longer am, I will go to live where someone else will care for me. Hope you all understand that this is said with love but just a tad of indignation. 💚💚💛💛💜💜

Good evening my FS friends, just checking in. I'm fine but still no electricity. I picked up some ice this morning and put my freezer & fridge food in ice chests. Also purchased food that doesn't require refrigeration for the next few days. Don't know when I'll be able to have the stitches removed from my eyelid, but that's not a major concern. I have water, but am not yet at the point where I'm ready to take a cold shower. Temperature in my apartment is still tolerable, but warmer than yesterday, so it would be nice if the power were to come on before tomorrow night. Overall, I'm fine & much better off than many. I'm not counting calories or weighing or logging right now. Since my books are on my Kindle, I'm able to read, which is how I pass my time. Had to charge my phone today & will need to charge it again tomorrow, lots of chit-chat with friends. I do have a place to sleep tomorrow night if necessary, so won't sleep in my car. Hope all of you are doing well, take care. 💚💛💜
