Let it fall!  I have a roof over my head, so I am protected. I am so very grateful for my health, food that I have to eat and the roof over my head! I am very grateful that in my newest domain my partner is sharing my first week, there, with me.

When I was much younger I used to think that I did not ever want to be an old man; and Sixty was old, so I thought. Today I toured an apartment at a 55+ facility. It was a nice place and all of the residents that I met were all friendly, cheerful people. I…
