Rainy Day

 It was an overcast day and we lazed around all day.

Terry looked at our outdoor porch and saw a box of  Mrs. Field's Cookies sitting out there.  They are from Mindy and Stacy as a recovery present after Marilyn's Mohs surgery, and they are yummy!  We've sampled a lot of them!!!



Marilyn went out for the newspaper and it was drizzling - she had her coat on!

We had a quick dinner and went to the postal station to try to get Marilyn's box, but the key would not work - we will go back again tomorrow.

 We then went to La Hacienda Recreation Center for Jukebox Bingo.

There were 10 of us and they allowed us to put two tables together.

In black, Kathy, Pat, Dick, Diane, Tom, Karen, Gloria, Terry, Marilyn, Jack

It was a fun evening and Marilyn had a bingo and won $25!

Nice sunny day

 We had a cool morning but it got up to the 70's late morning.

Terry filled out her ballot and got it ready for mailing.

We started out with Sally's class - Terry in the office and Marilyn on the Lanai.  Marilyn did not need to plug in the heater on the Lanai.

On the way to Freedom Point for lunch, we mailed Terry's ballot.

We went to Freedom Point and lunch, in the Pub, with Joy (who lives at Freedom Point).



After lunch, we went to Joy's apartment and played mahjongg with her friend Elaine, who also lives at Freedom Point.  We did not take a photo - our bad.

Tonight on Zoom was Leslie Goddard talking about Cookbooks.

Nice Day for a Ride

 The morning started out cool, but it warmed up to the low 70's in the afternoon.

We drove to Brandon Mall to meet Dorothy and Steve Stewart at Bahama Breeze, in Brandon.



As we got into The Villages, we stopped at Costco and Terry went into the store, while Marilyn got gas.

We stopped at the postal station so Terry could get her Premium package and her ballot.

After dinner, we plan to watch Jeopardy.

Cool Day and Stitches Out

 We left the house early to go to Mt. Dora to have Marilyn's stitches removed after Mohs Surgery.


We stopped at the Hospital Resale Shoppe on the way back and each bought one item.  Terry also dropped off some more plastic bags.

It was lunch time and we decided to go to the Brooklyn Bagel Shop and get egg salad sandwiches. We both have half of our sandwich left over.


We came home to rest, do laundry, and listen to our "homework" for Thursday's class with Sally.

At 7 p.m., we turned on Jeopardy.

At 7:30 p.m., we went into Barry Bradford's Zoom on What Just Happened this Month.

Cool Day and Oh So Pretty

 After lunch, we left to go see Vanessa to work her magic on our hair!

On the way home we stopped at Aldi and Terry got the rest of the things on her list.

We are watching the news and will be watching Jeopardy.


To everyone in Mexico, especially Puerta Vallarta, -be safe.

Rain in the morning and then a nice overcast day

 We did not leave the house until after noon to go to a Craft Fair and Gem Show at Seabreeze. Recreation Center.  We both bought earrings.  We stopped at the postal station so we could put Marilyn's ballot into the mail.

Marilyn has had a taste for pizza and we went for a late lunch for pizza, in Southern Trace Shopping Center.   They had a lunch special and we both got individual pizza.  The sausage was different but plentiful.  We both have leftovers.



Terry went into Publix for a few things - Marilyn waited in the car.

Mindy and Glenn went to our apartments to check things out and report all is fine.

They sent Terry her ballot via priority mail,  so she should be able to vote soon.

Cookie and Thrift Shoppe

 We left the house to return the cookies and one of the muffins from the bakery as they did not taste good.  There was a problem with one of the ingredients and we were not sure it was safe to eat.


Terry went in to return the cookies and said the lady there was lovely and gave her back Stacy and Mindy's money.

Since we were so close to the Ye Olde Thrift Shoppe, we stopped there. We each bought two tops.  We also ran into our friend Joy (who volunteers there).



We stopped at the Dollar Tree for a few things, including cards.

We then went home to eat our Thai leftovers from last night for lunch.

We left the house again around 5 p.m., thinking we'd go for pizza. 

They had a 40 minute wait and we decided to just stop for gas at Costco and go to Dollar Tree as Terry needed one more card.

Terry warmed up some chicken from Publix for dinner.
