Rosetta Stone is addictive

One of the things Syd and I invested in was Rosetta Stone Spanish.  We bought it a year or so ago but as lots of things go we procrastinated after a few weeks of diligent use.  Well now we have seriously picked it up again and both are feeling somewhat addicted.  This is truly the best way for us anyway to get comfortable with our Spanish ( I didn't say fluent ).  This as we know will be a necessity and now is the time to really take it serious.  Syd is spending a few days in Ft. Lauderdale visiting Ryan and Brandee.  She caught up with Bryce today and gave him some keepsakes that she wanted him to have, so our disposition continues.

Early January Preparation

While there may not seem to be a lot of content these first couple posts, they will be very important to Syd and I as we start the process of downsizing and education.  Right after the New Year we took down our Christmas decorations for the last time.  We plan to give away our things and not sell anything.  We posted on Facebook that our tree was available and within a couple hours Syd's sister Susan was the proud new owner.  The rest of the decorations went to Syd's friend Mary so lots of room already in the storage closet.
