It's still officially spring, and spring cleaning is under way here at The Compound. Last week, I started on my bedroom and closet. I'm happy to report that since I retired in July 2022, I've lost 85 pounds. I threw away a couple of bags of old clothes I would have been ashamed to give to a clothes closet, and have bagged up three more bags of bigger clothes to take to a clothes closet. I still makes me feel good that I'm getting rid of clothes that I can't wear, and better yet, being able to help someone who needs clothes.

Drama Free Sunday
It was a drama free Sunday here at The Compound. I'm happy to say I had the best night's sleep last night than I'd had in weeks. Not ashamed to say I went to bed at 10:00 and slept till 8:30. The Old Man had a good night's sleep, too. That's all you can ask for.

Rain Rain Go Away
In the past 7 days, we've had 3.5 inches of rain here at The Compound. The weatherazzi is calling for more rain and storms today and tomorrow. It's been quite a while since we've seen the sun. This weather makes me want to get in the bed and sleep.
