It's official! I'm 65

So as the tag line indicates, I'm now officially a senior citizen! I don't feel "senior". There must be some more politically correct way of identifying this period in one's life. I do like Moses Znaimer's term "Zoomer", in that it connotes a boomer with zip. I want to feel 'refired" not retired! So there!

Since this Blog is part of my journey into "refirement", I'm focusing on all that is possible, motivating and creative.

This week has seen a lot of moving and organizing as a result of the wall unit for my stereo system. Fours rooms ended up being affected, all for the better. Lots of pruning of stuff, so now its sorting to give away, throw out or sell. Upshot is that I did not have too much time to paint this week, but I do feel that I worked effectively to recreate my space and our space. Cats are quite confused with all these changes of course. But that cats!!

Here is a picture of my new (used) wall unit in the living room. Plus the recovered sofa and chair was delivered today as well. Just waiting on the coffee table which is being refinished. You can see the new upholstery on the chair in the left bottom corner.

This is what I did finish this week, a  nature study of leaves from my garden; geranium, two different types of Japanese maple, and a dusty miller.

And last, a picture of me on my 65th.  Not sure if its how I think I see myself in my mind's eye, but not too bad.
