NOT DOING SO GREAT

When one starts to pile on the years things start to go wrong. Several rules must be followed to insure ones quality of life. Rule # 1, try never to fall. Broken hips are the worst thing that can happen, closely followed by broken arms and ribs. In my case,a broken rib. Very painful but a fairly quick healing of four or five weeks seems
to have taken care of that. However , the potent painkillers caused some other unwanted after effects which I suspect may have caused me to be awaiting surgery
on my plumbing system in the next couple of weeks. Not a pleasant prospect.

Jan was driving me about ( I find driving difficult for the moment ) and was hit by a careless driver, causing $2500 of damage. His insurance company ,Safeco, is a bunch
of crooks who claimed it was Jan's fault. Ridiculous ! Our insurance Co., Farmers has come through with flying colors. What a wonderful bunch they are. They were more than helpful and are dragging the other insurance company to arbitration to get back our deductible portion of the bill the balance of which they paid at once. We are supposed to hate all insurance companies. I love Farmers.

On a happier note, we now have a resident rabbit in our yard. He has hung around now for about a month. I wonder why he has selected us but we are happy to accommodate him ( Her). I wonder if we should feed him and if so, what.

I think you should feed the rabbit - wonderful to have a new post and ending it with positive comments. We miss your blogs!

About rabbits...they love fruits and vegetables, though be forewarned, you may never get rid of it if feed it. I would rather have a resident rabbit in my yard than the strange mix of creatures I've found lurking about in my back yard over the years. Possums, racoons, a turtle, and the strangest yet, an armadillo. Yes, I would rather find a cute little rabbit than any of the above mentioned pests, though I suspect that a rabbit and its uncanny ability to reproduce could eventually become a problem. I hear, however, that they are quite delicious if cooked properly.

I wish you'd post something new. We all want to hear more about your resident bunny!

But seriously, we all miss your online "voice". I always feel better when I can read a fresh new rumination.
