So here’s a few postcards from Palma. Some roomies may recognise places as we came here two years ago. JoesDad was working here (doing a contract for a certain holiday company that went bust very recently) and I got very cheap off-season flights to join him.

This is the cathedral. The interior is simply gorgeous, but we’re not doing that until Monday

Part of the Royal Palace which is next to the cathedral and is a holiday retreat for the Spanish King.

And finally a peak into a typical courtyard in the backstreets

Temperature is a very pleasant 24C/75F... so much more pleasant than home!

Hello everyone, haven't checked my alerts. Tues therapy kicked my butt. Thurs morning the little pain devil was on my shoulder. Telling me not to go therapy. I battled the little guy and went to therapy. Today and tomorrow are going to be trying.
It felt good to get back on my prosthetic leg again.
Hope everyone is doing good .

Yeah that are nice, I only go there once in awhile because I'm deep in the country side deep in walterboro.
The only close pat store that I know of is in Orangeburg, petsense
I ordered from them by phone a couple of times. It was wonderful to talk to a person. She also was kind enough to take the time to share her experiences of all things tort with me.

Hello My friends... My little Yorke Teddy passed on last night and today has been incredibly hard. Last night was the first time in 24 yrs that I didn’t have a house dog. My first was Jake. I got Teddy right before Jake passed at 16 yrs and then passed every night since with Teddy... Coming home today to an empty house was especially tough.. I am grateful for every minute I had but it may take me a while to get the smile back..
That's a hard one. My home can't be without a cheeky little house bunny friend to play with. Sorry you lost your little one.

Glad you kicked the pain devil out. It can be hard to convince yourself, but you know it will be worth it in the end :)

A few weeks back @Ben02 made a reference to a new “box set” coming out that had @Ray--Opo scratching his head.

Just saw this via Twitter..

COMING SOON: A small-batch box set of film, music and memorabilia will be released to celebrate the 10th anniversary of “Michael Jackson’s This Is It”
What ev...at least I know it ain't been that long ...has it??... I guess time flies when you're having "fun".

I always told my PT that I was gonna get a T-shirt made just for him. It would say “Shut up and endure!”

I just finished a jigsaw puzzle of a castle that shows 70 windows on the one wall facing out. ONE WALL!!! At that size they should have been able to house the whole village
Wow! I love doing jigsaw puzzles. It was a favorite pastime in the evening for my family...yes pictures as @Ellie May said.

Happy Saturday all.

Our neighborhood is having a garage sale today for a few hours. So we’ve been scurrying about getting things identified & priced. We made a few hundred dollars in the Spring sale. Always good to get rid of a few extra things.

Temps today are in the 50’s and sunny. Finally some Fall-like feelings. Time for a nice wood campfire in the backyard this evening.

Have a great weekend.
