sunshine, funshine

Basking--not really because it has been too cool--in Scottsdale AZ. Relatively speaking, however, we are very well off compared to home where it is well below freezing and there is plenty of snow. So whilst we are in the high 50s and mid 60s, but not yet 70s, we are riding high.

There are too many good restaurants here, all of which it appears to be our goal to sample. And there has been additional hemorraging for clothing which I will probably never wear. Nearby there is a tailor selling Italian suits for $100. Too good to resist. And there are shoe outlets we just don't have in the frozen north. Plus, I am getting a couple collectible trumpets restored. Hope to pick up the first one today. So, life is good right now.

There is the usual arthritis and neuropathy and I don't know whether my work on my core strength is helping with the lower back. But I'll keep on. Sleeping well, and not napping very much--once or twice a week is all. Thus, I am at least maintaining, if not progressing, and that may be all one can hope for.

Our daughter joined us here for Xmas and returned north just a couple days ago. Next week we will venture to NM via Tucson with the goal of visiting good friends who are ex-pat Loganites.

Home beckons at the end of the month for meetings (Jan) and rehearsals (me) and maintenance infusions (me). All good things must end eventually...

Hope all of you reading this have a good and healthful new year.
