It's Official


We can now be considered residents of The Villages. Everyone here has a sign on the lampost with the house number and their names. Guess that is so you can find your own house in the maze.
Went to a great thrift shop today called Bargains and Treasures. Lots and lots of gently used furniture. I found a couple of vases that I liked. Looking for a couple of small tables but there was nothing today. Sales lady told me the stock is always changing. They pick up from about 18 homes daily -- things are constantly going in and out the front door. Makes me wonder if the first wave of residents bought things new and from then on it was recycled as the older folks died and younger folks moved in.
Jim played in his first Men's Day golf -- seemed to enjoy it. Good way to meet people. I will probably join a Women's group when we come back in the Fall. For now, I'm enjoying the fact that I have nowhere to be at any given time.
