Still recovering  physically from all the madness of the past couple months... it is time for Philip to get back to whatever "normal" is supposed to look like for him this month.  After our surreal  run in July with 93 room nights... we closed out an even more surreal  August with 95 room nights...  August is supposed to be much slower  than July.  Whatever happened to the economic downturn?  ......    :)

I can't seem to get rid of   this deep mucous congestion in my chest.... plus ....just being tired  a lot more than I'm used to.  At the same time, I made the mistake of cutting back on my supplements to see if it would effect anything... it did... old arthur came to visit again... (you know him... Arthur Ritis) ...    :)     Thought he was gone for good ... but I guess he never quits... so when I couldn't pick up the coffee pot with my right hand... I said  that's it ... and went back to my full supplement regimen...  the difference  has been dramatic... helps with my golf too!     :)

Actually... even with my hands hurting... the Lord blessed me with being runner up at our Super Seniors Championship at Copley Country Club... another of those kind of surreal things that seem to just continue in my life and keep me thankful... runner up in 2008... winner in 2009 and runner up this year... I still like those kind of blessings a lot more than the other kind... the kind that helps me not to think  more highly of myself than I ought to think!    :)

I need to write about all that has been going on with us for some new Newsletters  I'd like to post on our web-site.   I am trying to do that a little more often this year....  Also want to try to put a Facebook  thing together for the business....  hmmmm... I thought we were cutting back....  :)

It almost seems that the more stuff we stop  doing... the busier  we get.... go figure!

:)
