Keeping it cool means being calm and quiet. I have a daughter who is really beautiful (mother-speak) and I have ready-made dinners (or tea, english-speak) every single night. That's the life. I don't watch television now. There's you tube plus net-streaming services that are so convenient. I still pay a lot of money for cable services though, a just-in-case fixture. Although, now that my daughter is grown, I kind of miss episode after episode of Peppa Pig and Ben and Holly. Now, she operates her own you tube channel and is quite dedicated to viewing LOL videos.
As for the monumental paperworks ....
