Old Age Day by Day September 28, 2013

I've just finished saying goodbye to people in my study group.  As usual, it was supportive and helpful.  We've been practicing together for twenty years or more, so we trust each other and have shared all our fears and hopes.  We know each other's history.  We've made a safe place for ourselves.  Our teacher is struggling with age related issues, and now we support her in the way she used to support us.  As she says, sometimes she is the teacher, sometimes we are the teacher.

My husband went up to the cabin this morning, so I have the weekend to myself.  I have some shopping to do and a movie I want to see, and I'll talk to some friends on the phone.  It's beautiful weather.  I hope he has good weather at the cabin.  We need some time apart, as we are both retired, and the cabin makes it easy for us to get some space.  We're lucky.
