Monday Jan 9

Nice sunny day today, but cooler. No shorts for me, lots of people stuck with the short pants, like Marg did, but I was not among the hardy.
Did some running around to get the parts to connect the new surge protector this AM, but will wait until a nice hot day to install it so that the cord will be more flexible. Got to go to Ace hardware out of it and it's always a good stop. Met up with an old friend, Kess there and got to catch up with him.
Got back for lunch & Marg had the internet guru over after lunch to diagnose our poor connectivity. It seems we are picking up parts of the in-park service that we should not be seeing, One of them seemed like a stronger signal & when we connected to it, the system became confused. We are now connected to the correct one and our service no longer seems like dial-up, LOL. I told you earlier, she fixes all the computer stuff.
Me, well I played pool. Got in with a good group, lots of laughs. I was winning again, but so were they. I think it played out about even in the win/loss dept.
Marg made supper in her new $10 slow cooker. She made a stew & it turned out very well. One of my all-time favorites. Usually I like it just as well the second day, but this is such a small cooker, there were no left-overs. After supper we went out to Walgreens, as we needed a few things from the pharmacy. We were out so late that we went for a walk around the park when we got back. 9:30 and there are lots of people up, but no one else out for a stroll. That's life in a snowbird park!

  1. Temperatures must really be dropping in the desert if there's a need for long trousers and stew! xx
