Catching up

Sorry I've been away for a while. Life got busy there.

Living with Mom is not as bad as I thought. I come home, the house is clean. If something needs to be fixed and I call a service person, she is home to receive him (she works out of the house). When she's running errands, she asks if I need something. It's great. I have a WIFE!! This is really terrific because it's hard doing everything on your own sometimes! It's just a bit strange to be living with someone again when I've been living by myself for so long. Fortunately, we do get along.

I took the GMAT again. This time, I did much better on the Verbal score than last time (when San Diego was on fire). I still didn't do too well with the math. I can add, subtract, multiply and divide WHOLE numbers. Throw in a fraction and I'm toast. And, of course, most of these questions had to do with algebraic fractions and geometry formulas. PLEASE: I haven't seen a geometry formula since high school.

Went to Las Vegas in March for my Mom's birthday. We stayed at the Mirage hotel and went to the Cirque Du Soleil show "LOVE". It's Cirque Du Soleil done to The Beatles music. Can't get much better than that! My Mom found that she was overwhelmed and loved "LOVE". It really was spectacular. I highly recommend it to anyone who is in Las Vegas.

Currently, I'm just futzing around trying to find things to fill my time. I have more interest in doing activities so I consider that a plus. Now if I can just get my lazy slug butt off the couch and get some exercise, I might lose a few unwanted pounds! Motivation is key and I really have none right now. I so enjoy my down time; and I so enjoy eating great food. It's a puzzle.
