    Heather - that’s exciting that you almost have your memoir finished.

    Terri - thanks, it’s on my iPhone too. Must be a glitch.

    Lisa - what a terrible thing for those scammers to do. I assume people fall for it though or they wouldn’t continue. There a similar one going around here for a while with rental houses, very good deals, usually the owner was “doing missionary” work so you had to send the deposit via etransfer or whatever and then they would mail the keys. Just pure scum.

    Well I’ve read and caught up. I’m thankful it’s Friday. The weeks are going so fast because they are so busy.

    Rodger went to replace the sink today and the “new” one is too small for the opening by 1/4 inch. We are going to the Restore tomorrow to hopefully get another one, so we have no kitchen sink right now. We ordered pizza for supper. This doesn’t go with my plan for losing, fortunately I didn’t eat much for lunch. My boss ordered lunch for us, another girl and I ordered Caeser salad and it was awful! The dressing was so spicy we couldn’t eat it.

    Snowflake, I had never noticed, so would have said no, but there it is! Right in the middle of my screen on my ipad. Crazy!

    :) We had a lot of wind last night and today and lots of outages on the internet so it has been a weird day. I kept getting kicked off my Zoom meeting at noon. Even at 48 F I wore all my winter gear to stay warm when I took my evening walk.

    Beth, hugs to you and your family. Such a terrible thing.

    My dog is having a weird night. Lots of panting and staring at me and failure to settle down to his usual napping. I feel like he is in pain but the vet isn't open.
    His appetite is fine. He has no problem jumping on the furniture. I guess we'll see what the morning brings.

    Did Kathe Friedrich afterburn DVD. I’m toying with the idea of doing a walking DVD tomorrow.

    Tracey – now that I’m a grandmother, I realize how it must have really hurt MIL and FIL that they didn’t see the kids much. Now I wish I’d made more of an attempt to have the kids call them (no videochat back then), send some of their “artwork” from school down here, little things like that

    Before I left for exercise got a loaf of sourdough bread ready and it was rising. After exercise went to Winn Dixie to get Gatorade which was on a very good sale then came home, did a few little things, then in the pool. I was VERY surprised that there weren’t barely any people in the pool, just two others. It was a beautiful day, in the 80’s, low humidity. Well, I went in. I guess people came around 2. We went to Brevard Charities to make a small donation. Vince ordered a cat tree for the condo

    bananas – I don’t see why you would need to go to the dentist for your bill. If he wants his money, he certainly can find a way of getting that bill to you.

    Dee – (((BIG HUG)))

    Barbra – Steve used to work for Vince as a contractor.

    TheMrsH…. - welcome, we are all here for you. Keep coming back for tips all around

    Lisa – glad to hear you’re taking care of yourself. Get better fast

    Crying for Beth

    I took the loaf of sourdough to a lady here who has been a long-time resident. She's real nice. She was telling me that this place used to be called Mallord Place and that the land it's built on used to be under water. She showed me the brochure for this place when it first went from apartments to condos

    Carol - it must be an app issue with iPads and phones.

    Margaret: Thanks for the beautiful flowers your shared with us today. I needed the cheerful lift that beautiful flowers bring. :flowerforyou:

    I am in the process of getting Covid Vaccinations scheduled for DH and me. When the Walgreens store opens I’ll try to get an appointment at the same time as him. He has mobility issues and I will be helping him as his caregiver & support person. I hope it will work out okay.

    Interesting article ...

    5 life lessons I’ve learned from project management
    https://medium.com/wriketechclub/5-life-lessons-ive-learned-from-project-management-7dbd0a014656

    "One of the first things I learned about project management is that you can’t actually complete a project. You can only complete all the steps that are part of that project, and then mark the whole thing done. If you divide larger tasks into smaller ones, it’s not as scary. You can just do it and feel good about your accomplishment."

    My dog Teddy boo seems fine this morning. He had trouble going to sleep and He woke me up to go out at midnight. But he seems normal now. That was a bizarre episode. He was all over me, like a clingy toddler, yet he couldn't settle down. Poor baby! Strict diet today.
