BlueMoon,
It was excellent planning on your county's part to have the senior center with a generator attached to your complex. I think I read on another thread that your utilities are paid for, which is wonderful!
Rainshower,
Just being out on the Links can be very relaxing. Since you are surrounded by two golf courses, there must be a few pro's that aren't associated with them hanging around the area that offer lessons for less money than the club pro's and assistants. One of them should be able to help fit you for the right clubs, and help teach you a better grip and swing. I know it's a really hard switch if you aren't ambidextrous or a hockey player lol.
Vacuuming is the WORST!!!
