Ken’s time here in Sun City Center is very limited. In less than a week he’ll be heading to Georgia and then New York. He keeps reminding me that he’ll be back in September for a short while before he leaves in November for the holidays but those are long periods of absence.

I’ll adjust. I’ll have to. He’ll be busy running his business. I’ve watched him get ready to leave and I realize just how much work it entails. He’s been swamped with countless chores.

Most every evening he comes over for a few hours (Showing the effects of hard labor.) I know he’ll miss me (and I’ll miss him). It’s great having a friend I can talk to and share thoughts. Maybe when he returns we can pick up where we are leaving off but I’m not making promises. Admittedly when I attend events alone, I will be looking over the “selection” single/available guys. There aren’t many I would consider.

Going to dances, Rockin Rendezvous, Karaoke, and the Moose will be strange without a “date” but I’ve done it before and I’ll be ok. I hope I am asked to dance at least occasionally.

My daughter Kelly is coming for a December visit. We’ll have fun, fun, fun.
