Way off! We live near and work(ed) in Silicon Valley, if that gives you a clue.

Today I go to a local gym for a free three-day trial. It’s the only one in town that accepts the “Silver Sneakers” benefit that comes with our future Medigap insurance, so I want to try it out. It’s a big place and very popular, so I hope it won’t be too much of a mosh pit. All I want is access to treadmills and smaller-size free weights.

Then it’s home to laundry and housework of my choice. Hmm, maybe I’ll tackle the master bedroom with the vacuum and polish, and weed out some old clothes that I won’t need in retirement.
