Good afternoon, gang! This is another one of those days where we slept late and what was left of the morning just slipped away. Bert asked me just now what I wanted for lunch and I told him my internal time clock hasn't gotten past morning yet, so I'll skip lunch today.
Dinner last night turned out great. Only thing that was screwy was the mashed potatoes. First time I ever used Publix gold potatoes. When I mashed them, they had about the consistence of either wallpaper paste or spackling! I have not a clue as to why that happened and I will be sure to never get these potatoes again. Other than that, everything was great and I have enough leftover for tonight. A win/win to me!!
Karen - Good idea getting all those little chores over and done with before the hot weather sets in. Glad your home inspection went well. I understand that home owner's insurance is taking a sizable jump this year due to (you'll love this!) a hurricane that hit Florida 3 YEARS AGO!!! One of those "only in Floridah" happening!
Kathie - That's a bummer about the laptop and making you take a second trip due to some incompetent person. I need Gary to check out my computer. I'm positive it has a virus and the virus program I had has run out. He'll install something for me. He didn't do that with this computer as it had a virus program already, but it was for only a limited time and that time is now up.
I also need Gary to check my TV as to why we aren't getting Netflix. Like you, we are getting Netflix from Gary. He may have changed his password or done something like that. It's happened before and I know it's a quick fix for him to do once again.
Dave - I like your way of thinking about the wine, but can't use that as an excuse. Don't forget we run AC all year, so the wine stays comfortable. But I will keep your idea in the back of my mind should we start getting carried away with drinking it. I will though continue to buy Frontera Concha y Toro for daily drinking. It's cheaper!! LOL
Need to take a trip to the library today. I have a book out that I'm reading, but haven't finished yet. Got my notice that it's due to go back, but Bert checked further and it says there are 2 renewals available on it. Well see which is which. If someone else is looking for it right now, I'll return it and then get my name right back on the list so I can get to finish it. Good story following 3 women in the 1930's and the trials and tribulations of their marriages and lifestyles involving NY underworld leaders. The book is called Last Train to Key West.
Also need to make a quick stop at Publix for a few things that I need for our dinner tomorrow night when the gang will be here.
Time to get this show on the road! Have a wonderful day and keep washing those hands and wearing that mask!
