June

was the month
- I had another birthday. I have unequivocally reached the landmark "senior" status.

- In keeping with what I've done for many years now, I made this a birthday month. I made a conscientious effort to live everyday for myself (as much as I can).

- I finally decided to give some real thought to the awful woman's question, "What do you want at this moment in your life?"


The answer is - nothing. I want for nothing.


Leaving aside the good health and the adequate IQ I enjoy but cannot take credit for, the one thing I consciously worked towards is to not be poor. I did not need to be rich, only not poor, so that I may have choices in my life. I reached the goal; I knew it when I reached the target.


So, honestly, I want for nothing.


The silly woman doesn't read my blog (she doesn't know how to access it) so I guess I will write her one day to tell her. On the other hand, maybe not, since it's not anything she can possibly understand as she carries on talking at me.


- This has been a very special month.


p.s. Tomorrow I will be in Brisbane for five days. Just because.
