~Friday~ We had breakfast at the Island House poolside restaurant, as will probably be the case for the next three days as well. Today, I had their three-cheese omelet with some wheat toast. And coffee, of course. I worked a little on my pictures and my blog this afternoon, and I sat in the bar … Read more
~Thursday~ Joe and I had breakfast at the poolside restaurant and bar. Joe had granola cereal and orange juice and I had a bagel with a side order of sausage. I thought I ordered patties, but when links arrived, I ate them like the trooper I am. Of course, we both had coffee. Yesterday was … Read more
~Saturday~ I slept in this morning. Oh glorious weekend. Today was all about the weather, as tornadoes whipped through the city, and I feel fortunate to have gotten through unscathed, as I live only 3 miles from downtown, where there was extensive damage in areas, including people being killed. I couldn’t help but be reminded … Read more
~Thursday~ I got a late start this morning, and after making my breakfast and lunch sandwiches while waiting for my four cups of coffee to brew, I drove over to Gorman and Avent Ferry to catch the Wolfline #9 Greek Village bus. A cute guy sat across from me reading Why GM Matters, presumably for … Read more
~Wednesday~ I was at the city bus stop at 8:18. Shortly after that Exercising Asian Man walked down the entrance to our townhouse, but instead of coming to our stop, he turned left and jogged down to the one further down the street. The bus arrived at 8:24. Hot Mess Driver was at the helm, … Read more
~Sunday~ I slept in late today, managing to get up just before it turned afternoon. I worked some more on the “paperwork process,” getting through the bank statements pile, the insurance pile, and the medical and dental pile. I had two file folders for insurance. The first one holds my Nationwide policies, which includes an … Read more
~Saturday~ I filed my federal taxes electronically this morning. This is the first time I’ve ever filed electronically, as it’s the first time I’ve been able to do it for “free.” Well, with the cost of the H&R Block software, you’re allowed five “free” submissions. As I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned here before, I am … Read more
~Sunday~ I was up at about 8:30, put on a pot of coffee, and made two sausage-egg-and-cheese sandwiches for breakfast for us. I liked this PostSecret because it’s a reminder that always being responsible (which I have been most of my life) is not necessarily the best thing: Shortly after Robert left to head back … Read more
~Wednesday~ I was up at 6AM and down to the city bus stop at 6:45. When the bus hadn’t come by 6:54, I drove over to the Avent Ferry Food Lion Park & Ride (AFFLP&R), and when I arrived there found my cell phone missing. Thinking I must have dropped it inside my house when … Read more
~Monday~ I worked from home this morning, and at lunch time I headed over to Thompson Collision Repair to pick up my car. My first stop was at Enterprise to turn in my rental, and from where I received a ride to Thompson by a man who had a chauffeur look to him and was … Read more
