Feeling Anxious
GEEZERHOOD!!
I know I haven't been here in a while, and won't guarantee when I'll be back, BUT, had to ANNOUNCE my membership in the life of a SOCIAL SECURITY receipient.
Now, with good old Uncle Sugar, they're always some little hitches, as I'm sure you all know!
I turn 62 next monday, 23rd, BUT, I don't get a dime from SS until the 4th Wednesday in JUNE!!! How's that for timely an accurate payment?
However, when I get to be 65 and eligible for Medicare (WHICH I DON'T NEED, OR WANT) they start DEDUCTING 5 days before I turn 65!!
I'm not complaining, in fact, I'm thankful that SS is still here for me. I realize there are issues that need to be addressed, BUT, I'm here as an old Geezer, not a soap box ranter!!
Besides, you know me better than that!! LOL!!
Anyhow, my, and my Linda's health is fine, my golf game is , actually, a little BETTER (hard to believe, BUT, the surgery really helped!!)
Realize I've been totally non responsive for some time, nothing personal, just haven't been doing much of anything on this here computer except paying bills.
True story, before I go: On March 30, I was going to go up the hills to Blackhawk to do a little gambling. I left here about 10:00 a.m. and got to my interstate ramp, and couldn't get on due to an accident. (I never have just driven up there by myself, so I was quite disappointed) Well, what was I to do? Too early for Church, or any "meetings", soooooo, I went to my buddies bar!! We have these Lottery Scratch tickets that I play once in awhile, so I said to myself, "Self!!, might as well play a few with the money I was taking to the hills anyway!! Well, I'll be darned.....after a very minimal , and I do mean minimal, output of funds, I hit $20,000!!!!!!!!!! Thank God for that accident!!! (By the way, no one was hurt, just a truck flipped and spilled junk all over)
As you know, we had a bad winter here, and I got zero work hours (can't play golf in the snow) so this was truly a blessing. Of course, my favorite Uncle, got his LARGE cut, BUT, I'll never complain, just isn't my nature....
Gotta go
the RAMBLER!!

Hey Rick, Glad you're bad, don't stay gone for too long anymore. Did Uncle Sam get his big cut too? So, how are things in the "hood?" (geezerhood) Anne

I've been off the J-Line for quite a while as you may have noticed. It was good to read your current posting and some back issues as well. Very happy about the 20 thou and VERY sorry about your sister. But knowing you, sort of, i feel you will handle the highs and the lows with your usual level approach.
Take care and be strong.
