Hibernation

So I kind of feel as though I've been in hibernation for a few months here. The short reason is that we moved and Tony quit his job and we've been bouncing around our new house, but the longer version is that we moved and Tony quit his job and things have been painfully dull.

It is truly amazing how the days blend together when neither of you has a job to get up and go to every day. Most days, we wake up and one of us asks, "What is it today?" And the other will scramble to remember how long it has been since grocery day (now Wednesday) or Formula One race day (always Sunday.) Keeping appointments has become even trickier - yes, we have a calendar, but do either of us look at it on a regular basis? No.

Most people, when they hear that we are both off work for the time being, remark that it must be like being retired. All I can say is that I hope retirement is more exciting than the past three months have been for us. If not, viva la not knowing what day it is!
