A rare event

Hooray! i got onto my blogsite again! No doubt about, I could use a new computer. But could I learn to use it? That is the question!
We had some exciting weather a night or so ago, with a fierce lightning and thunder storm. It crackled across the sky, waking everyone up and starting small fires. This a rare occurence here in our part of the country, and brought back memories of storms in the midwest where I grew up. Although we have earthquakes here, we don't have the tornados, blizzards and flooding to contend with. Actually, I rather enjoyed the storm.
Otherwise, things have been very quiet. I am walking pretty well, with the help of a walker, and will probably walk a block or two this afternoon. In a couple of weeks, I will be eighty-seven years old. Time has flown by, and I am fortunate that my memory has remained clear. And doubly fortunate that we live in this beautiful spot. At one time, I wrote the story of my life. Maybe I will put some of it on my blog. But bye for now. Keep in touch.

In action again

Hi! Thanks, Anonymous, for your kind thoughts. i have indeed been a little distracted, maybe even a little depressed. And when I tried to respond with a comment of my own, my computer demanded that I register again. So i will just enter a new blog.
I am almost tempted to get myself a laptop computer, as this old one of mine is acting up and is just about ready for replacement.
We are enjoying my favorite time of year - warm weather and fronds falling from the redwoods, and the humming birds zooming in to drink from the feeder. yesterday one of them flew into something, and fell senseless to the decking, but after awhile, it regained consciousness and flew away.
On September First, I fell backward down into my family room, and was somewhat lame for awhile, but I am getting around very well now, so all is going well. I am going to get back on the track - I promise. Good-night and keep in touch.
