It’s supposed to be spring here but we have quite wild weather yesterday including some hail which you can see in Vin’s photo. Over a 24-hour period we also had an inch of rain. There is still a lot of cloud around but it seems like the rain has gone.
Vince has been a bit tired over the last few days but hopefully today we’ll get out to the motor-home and get a few things done. There is a tiny leak in a water pipe and he needs to get underneath to fix it which he finds really difficult. We’re both getting old it seems.

I read that there was a tornado north of Paris, France today. And you had hail!
Yeah, we’re all getting older, aren’t we. I was thinking about that today, thankful that I can still care for myself. My neighbor across the street is 85 and still works out in her yard!

I hope you and Vince are both doing okay...
I can't get up and down like I used to anymore so we have to hire people to do repairs now. It really sucks!

@JudyEv You're welcome.
Me, too. Hiring someone to do things I know how to do but can't is annoying to me, too.

Time marches on. I don't know how mobile I will be in another 5 years if I should live that long. It's worrisome.

@JudyEv You're in a one-floor house right? So am I. And I had the front steps and the garage steps redone so that they aren't as steep.

@LindaOHio These houses are designed for the elderly. The passages are quite wide to allow for zimmer frames and the bathrooms are big enough to get a wheelchair in. There are no 'real' steps at all. Do you still have steps or is it a ramp now?

Yes, they were only little. We had just over an inch of rain in the 24 hours which is a lot for us.
