I went grocery shopping this morning…

I was almost out of tea and spinach and decided that today would be quieter (with less people) in the grocery store, rather that on the weekend…

while there I wondered whether I should keep my gloves on when pushing the cart… I tried to stay away from other people in the aisles… I picked up items with just a few fingers, and wondered how many people had punched in their codes at the credit card terminal…

as soon as I got home I hurried into the bathroom and washed my hands…

I could not believe how stressful the whole thing was…

brought home a pot of Spring flowers to help make the kitchen a brighter place…

planning to stay home for the next while unless really needed;-(…

wearing those big girl pants a lot recently…

met with my finance guy and reviewed my portfolio… we discussed when I might need to begin removing funds from my RRSPs and how long the money will last…

it is complicated as the whole thing is a guessing game about how long I will live and need the money…

thinking how blessed I am that I have these problems as there are so many out there whose struggle with finances is much more difficult…

sure do miss my beloved during these times… feels a lot less stressful when there are two of you dealing with these issues…
