I just finished breakfast and all I have to do today is clean. I've already done the laundry and shopping yesterday. One nice thing about being retired is that I don't have the cleaning, laundry, and shopping to do all on Saturdays anymore.

It's been a very bumpy ride in the last couple of days. It all had to do with getting health insurance, and trying to get it before the 1st. I got into one low-cost insurance program but ended up being rejected because I didn't qualify. And another one, as of now, is pending. I've had to get all kinds of documents for that one and it's been a real hassle. But late yesterday I decided to go with a more costly policy that's easy to get. I'm not happy about paying more but I think it's worth it. There's no guarantee that I will qualify for the one that's pending now and it probably will not be a good policy.

Nothing much after I do the cleaning and lunch. I think, from now on, I should be more on "cruise control" than having

some chaos to do like in the past couple of weeks. At least I hope it will be that way.
