Here again

Today has been a slow day, no sun until late afternoon. This morning Ethel went to Scripps medical to have surgery for cancer on her right hand. I decided to soak my feet in warm water which felt great. Yesterday we went to Rummy-Q neither Ethel or I won. O well we had a good time with the ladies. This is Memorial week end so here is a picture with our flags.

Friday

This morning we checked the TV again and it still showed Technicolor again so we called Spectrum again and she walked us through some things and still no TV. She ordered for a technician to come at 5:00 pm. To our amazement we turned the TV on at 5:30 pm and it was fixed before the technician arrived. Well he told us at night sometimes Spectrum does updates and didn't turn it on after wards. So now if the box shows the time of day it should be working. He gave us other tips also. Today I made a potato salad and did a load of washing, cleaned my bathroom. Now we have finished our spring house cleaning I think. Oh the windows still needs to be cleaned.

TV not working

Today the weather has been a little chilly with a cold wind. At 9:30 am we went to Cost-Co and got gas and groceries. After putting away the groceries we had a good hot dish and corn on the cob. Then we went to the club to play hand and foot, there was only Mary, Ethel and myself. I made biscuits for strawberry short cake and soup. When we tried to se the news the TV was out of order. We called Spectrum several times and they said they were working on it. Seems funny as our neighbors TV was working. I ordered a globe and here it is.  

Great weather

We are having great weather in the 70"s some clouds, this is my kind of weather. Today we went to the 8:30 am church service at 10:00 am we attended the class led by a converted Jew he was converted in 1987. The topic was about his life before his conversion. His scripture was in 1st Samuel. After the class we went to the Chinese restaurant for lunch. As long as we were in the area of Wal-Mart we decided to do our shopping. I purchased replacement bulbs for the recessed lights. Now I will wait for some tall person to install the one in the kitchen.
Yesterday we went to the wedding of Elizabeth the choir director. In the evening we watched the wedding of Harry from England, quite a long ceremony but interesting. 

I Can't believe it

Yes I can't believe it, I have not posted a Blog this year. My excuse is it seems like everything is the same with no news.
This morning Ethel and I were waiting for Debbie and Candace to arrive. They got here at 12:00 noon. They toured my little condo. They couldn't believe that it is so large for a condo. They really liked it comments were it is all so level, great yard, quiet and beautiful. Then we went to the club and showed everything there, the comment was we have everything here. When we got to the woodworking shop a man opened the door and inviteded us in and he explained many thing which they do. Candace was very interested in the wood work. Needless to say we didn't attend "Hand & Foot".

Next we went to Souplantation for lunch. After lunch Candace and Debbie left as Debbie had to fly back to Sacramento this evening.

AFTER CHRISTMAS

We left here at 9:00 am to drive down to Alden's for Christmas. The boys from Hawaii were there helping in the kitchen as usual. Aunt Jean and Uncle Jim were also there and Vicky. McKenna and Andrew showed up later as they were in Imperial Beach at Andrew's Grandmothers earlier in the morning. Camia's family and Keith were all sick and didn't show up. Had a great time opening gifts. I was still suffering with the cold infection. Today I am feeling better. We came home at about 4:00 pm. Gina fixed left overs for us so we have had left overs for two days. We are not having ceramics and cards this week as most everyone is sick. Here are some pictures of Christmas.

Weather Changes

Shortly after I sprayed the pantry I came down with a cold and I am unable to shake it off. It has been 3 weeks now so I went to the doctor and got some medication to spray in my nose once a day. With the drainage from my nose down it causes me to cough then I have no energy. I pray that I will get over this before Christmas. Last week end was Ethel's 90th Birthday celebration. We went to OUT-BACK for dinner. While Alden was here Alden and Josh vacuumed the heater filter which was quite dirty.
