Changes

One Monday is pretty much like any other Monday. We had a big swimming group this morning. Good to see everybody - what a great group that is. The laundry got done, and I 'instant-messaged' with Jean for a bit.

We had a good bridge day - five full tables. The cards were fair-to-middlin' - I'm sure we both wound up in the middle somewhere. The annoying guy was his usual self - but he obviously had lousy cards. He stayed at the same table all afternoon (which means that his partnership lost each round). That would be frustrating to the nicest of card-players, I'll have to admit.

The biggest news of the week is the upcoming completely make-over of the SeniorNet website. The switch comes on Wednesday, but the announcement and preview came today. Every one of my subscribed discussions is in an uproar. Although many are saying how nice the new site looks, the discussion access is going to change. We'll have to re-register, rewrite our profiles, resubscribe to discussions, etc. Folks are frustrated and complaining. The discussion change won't happen for a while yet, so I hope we'll all get used to it on the practice pages.

We do hate change, don't we. And, of course, it's the only sure thing in our lives (death and taxes notwithstanding).

Today's picture is of part of the 2007 graduating class from Dixie High School, Due West, SC. These young folks are in for arguably the first of many major changes in their lives. Good luck to them all!
