Monday Morning Feb 10 #Let'sTakeTheLongWayHome

We do most of our living between Friday night and Monday morning.  Monday morning is the time to reflect on the weekend and get back into our week day routine . As I get older it becomes more difficult to get myself  moving on Monday morning.   I guess that is part of what retirement planning is about - letting go of the weekday routine and spreading the rest of your life over seven days!





Monday February 10

Tonight is bookclub.  We have been meeting for many years - a group of us - our members change over time -  but always we have the same thing in common - we love books.

Tonight we will discuss Gail Caldwell's Let's Take the Long Way Home.  A beautiful book about writing and friendship and loss.  

This blog is about emerging seniors.  There are few of us who get to this stage in life who have
not experienced the loss of a close friend or people that are "pillars" in our lives.  There is no easy solution to working through such grief.  And certainly no book will provide an answer.  However, Let's Take the Long Way Home is an eloquent and wonderful story that would touch the hearts of anyone who is or has had to walk that path.
