Reading and New Lease for 2027

 We both have been busy trying to read the next Sisterhood Book Club book.  It's a big book.  Marilyn has the hard copy book and will have to switch to e-book as the lighting is so bad.


Shirley, our landlady, came over with a new lease for 2027.  Terry gave her brownies to take home for her and Bernie.

Drizzling for part of the day

 We left the house after breakfast to go to the postal station and Terry was able to get Marilyn's box.

Lake Miona Recreation Center for a craft fair was our next stop and Terry bought a ring.



We next went to Beall's Outlet and Marilyn bought some things that she needs to try on.



Terry stopped into Publix for a few things while Marilyn was still in Beall's.

After lunch we each napped for a little while and Marilyn did laundry.

At 5:30 we went to Diane and Tom's for dinner.  Tom cooked the salmon on the grill and it was delicious, served with salad, rice and green beans, and home made sauce for the salmon. We took no photos!

After playing cards (Marilyn won) we had ice cream for dessert.

It was a great evening with friends of long standing.

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.
