Autumn greetings …. we’re not quite there yet, but Plato hopes you’re peachy🍑 keen and that your Medicare Insurance is working well.
Have you received your notice of Medicare plan changes yet? If your medications💊 or physicians🧑⚕️have changed, please email any changes in medications and any new doctors to Gray@TheBig65.com. After that, I’ll be ready!
We can’t make changes till the Annual Election Period beginning October 15th 📅, but, we want to be ready in advance. Anyone new to Medicare, please book a time on my calendar.
Well, the peach harvest is in (singular). While it was only one, at least we beat the racoon🦝 family to the punch this year.
The honey harvest is in as well🐝🍯🏠. This year we only gathered sixty pounds of honey (last year it was 160 😮), despite a lot more care and TLC this year.
Miti, our high school exchange student from Madagascar, celebrated her 17th birthday and her first cross country race 🏁⬅️🏃♀️.
She could only run a half mile when she arrived, and though she is far from the fastest, she is making great progress. We are very proud of the effort we see her making.
So, after finishing these projects (and all my 2026 Medicare certifications), I decided it was time for me to flip the script on Quantz and take a trip ✈️ before the crazy Annual Election Period begins October 15th.
Don’t worry, Q is still at home with Miti.
Besides, it was time to visit our Air Force son and make certain all is well and that the volcano 🌋, Mt. Etna, hadn’t completely covered his apartment in ashes.
Mission accomplished❤️.
Like most of us, age has made me crankier. Every day, I have to challenge myself to maintain an open mind and look for what’s right in the world.
The Spanish film director Buñuel wrote:
“If I were exiled to a desert island, and could only take one thing with me, it would be coffee. I have always taken refuge in it. Then, tobacco, and friends — these three things I would keep for life.”
I don’t need tobacco, but a strong cup of coffee☕, a warm cipollina (a Sicilian onion pastry with ham & cheese), and perhaps the unexpected smile of a stranger remind me that life is still a miracle and I’m not dead yet😊.
In sports and in life, outcomes aren’t guaranteed. It takes way more courage and energy to live life with hope and compassion than it does to live with cynicism and despair.
We always have a choice, so be like Claire and Fancy (on the right). They just added Haze to the family and everyone is better off for it.
Our time on earth is short, even if we live to be one hundred. Today is all we have, so…
Break bread with someone you love.
Forgive the person who caused you pain.
Find a way to help another person.
Laugh as much as you can.
Most of all, give thanks for another day.
And do keep squeezing the juice🍊 out of life and look for ways to help others.
If family or friends need help… referrals are the lifeblood of my business.
