You got that right!

It’s a whopping 51 out there and low temps should continue for 3 or 4 days. That forecast, however is just the last one in a string of rapidly changing forecasts, so who knows what’ll really happen.

I’m happy with it; I’d rather be cool than hot.

[Lady Jag]

joy is living day to day, To make sweet dreams come true.

Me, too!

[NY Attitude]

Look on the bright side; you could be receiving 2 feet of snow. 8^)))))

As am I, my knees are not aching!!

[Soaring Feather]

Oh you think so eh, well take this.

[NY Attitude]

LOL.

[Soaring Feather]

A little birdie told me you were getting ready for this.
Bwahahahaha!

[Lady Jag]

It’s been a couple years since we’ve had 2’ of snow, knock on wood.

I prefer cool dry temps because I am cool with a dry sense of humor.

[NY Attitude]

Ho, Ho, Ho we must shovel our way through the snow.

[Soaring Feather]

Ya think it is funny huh? Well, sunburn in the desert is not a joke. ;)

[NY Attitude]

LOL. If it were only that easy. Somehow the work thing is in my genes. My Dad worked until he was 93.

[Soaring Feather]

Good grief, well, I guess that is what kept him going.
That’s a long time to live and work.

I must be the laziest of lazies then. I like it though. hehehe

[NY Attitude]

I agree with you about sunburn, it can be extremely painful. That is why certain parts of my body are covered when I go outside. However, the desert has a certain beauty that cannot be denied. I remember walking in Saudi where wind swept sand dunes of dark and light colored sand abound. The sands colors intertwined into some interesting patterns. You could almost smell the oil in the ground

[NY Attitude]

I would prefer a relaxed atmosphere as opposed to working in a stressful environment. I think semi-retirement is what I am going to opt for.

[Soaring Feather]

Your depiction of your time in Saudi would make a wonderful poem. You have seen things I can only dream of. There is a difference.
I do think the desert has a special beauty, most certainly the flowers are spectacular.
I have had only a brief glimpse of desert last year from the plane and it was totally captivating for me.

[Soaring Feather]

Stress is a killer - much better to lessen its grip and relax in the cool evening air of the desert night.

Those moon scenes must be fabulous.

[NY Attitude]

Okay, no sweat.

[Lady Jag]

Fantastic! God answered our knee mails!

[Lady Jag]

If you want to semi-retire, be sure to do something you like.

A friend in an especially stressful occupation plans to open an ice cream stand when he retires.

If you want to semi-retire, be sure to do something you like.

Well that is the plan. Whether or not it will come to fruition is anyone's guess. There was a job in my past that seems to follow me on occasion. Hopefully. I can pull off an optimum mix of work / retirement.
