Obviously, this is the last day of October 2024 and obviously, this is Halloween, but what is not obvious is that I am sitting on my back deck in shorts and a short-sleeve shirt because it is EIGHTY (80) degrees outside at 4:00pm.
I am sitting in the shade because the sun is on the other side of the house, and I am drinking Vanilla Cappuccino coffee that I purchased at Weigel's Convenience store, a mile from the house.
In point-of-fact, I purchased two large cups (24 oz) and when I finished with one, I simply heated up the other one in the microwave for a minute and I am again good-to-go.
The weather is supposed to dip down into the 60s tomorrow with rain but for the next 5 days, our temps will again be in the mid to high 70s.
Not trying to BRAG... well, maybe I am just a tad, East TN weather is damn near perfect, and we still have four seasons albeit some of them short.
I moved here in 1990, and I am glad that I did. I am also glad that I am retiring in this area because even though the rest of the country are experiencing inflation and high prices, it is not bothering us too much here.
However... bear in mind, that my wife and I have had no debt for over 15 years and our lifestyle is simple and plain... We buy only what we need, not what we want as a general rule.
