Happy Groundhog Day

It's not really Groundhog Day, but I went to see a live play, made from the Chevy Chase movie "Groundhog Day" and it was WONDERFUL!  It was so much fun.

In other news, August 31, 2017 was my official day of retirement.  I no longer have to go to work every day and it is very wonderful.  Now I can spend my time writing, playing the piano, catching up on a million different projects, visiting friends, and updating the genealogy I started a couple of years ago.  Someday you may be interested in where you came from so I hope you will let me know when you want to see it.  We had some very interesting relatives.

Since I'm not working, I am going to Florida for 4 whole weeks this time to have surgery on my left toe.  It has been giving me trouble for years and is very painful, so fixing it on the 21st of September.  I'm quite exciting about having it done so I can go dancing again.  It was been several years since I could dance because of the pain in both feet.  If this one is successful, I will have the other one done in January.

Also am fortunate to see Sir Paul McCartney in concert this evening.  I can't wait - it is the first time I've ever seen him and this may be his last tour.

School will be, or just was, starting for you both this month.  I know school can be challenging but I really hope you will take the time and energy to apply yourselves to your studies.  I'm sure you are in a very good school so you are learning important information.  It is only for a few years (although it seems like a lifetime at your age) but everything you learn will be used afterwards.  Even the math!!
Spend the time now to learn all you can because once you grow up and start working there is a lot less time until you get to my age and can retire!!

Love you both very much, and miss you as always.
