Business and Pleasure

Today, we both worked all morning.  Terry was doing work for both of her businesses, and I was interacting with students via computer and the telephone.  I also write two columns, for two different groups, and contribute to a newsletter for a third group.  I was busy with that this morning.

Over lunch, Terry and I were talking about how disappointed our mother would be that we don't jump out of bed and get dressed before breakfast.  We speculated that if they had the Internet in her younger days she too would have worked in her p.j.'s sometime!

We left the house to go to an open house being held by a real estate gal who works with her sister - they are billed as "the sister act."  We exchanged cards.  It was a little house that she was holding open, in one of the older areas.

After looking at some other properties, we went to Sumter Landing and walked around while the musicians were getting the stage ready and the vendors were setting up.






Here's Terry in front of the clock at Sumter Landing:

Also took a photo of one of the four bars (there is one on each of the four corners at each of the squares).  You can see how inexpensive the drinks are.  We saw a cute license plate that said "The Villages: A Drinking Community, with a Golf Problem."  As Terry says, "if you were a drinker, the drinks are so cheap, you could have a real drinking problem."  I tried to get the prices in the photo.

We next went for ribs at Sonny's Bar B Q.  Thought of our friend Fran, who would love these ribs, as they do not fall off of the bone.




Was sorry to hear about Senator Mark Kirk.  I cannot imagine someone so hard driving being incapacitated to the extent that they say.  I'll try to reach his step brother to see if there is anything we can do from here.

After doing some more work (and Terry doing laundry), we will watch the President's State of the Union Address.

Oh yes, have to finish my bridge homework!
