With the exception of rain on the Rose Parade and a slight drizzle a week ago, the weather in So. Cal. has been bright and sunny in stark contrast to the rains of last year. Perhaps, I'm a little too anxious to see how the repairs hold up in a harder rain.
I've been trying to walk at lunch and have managed to about four days out of five last week. Today, though the wind is blowing and the chill by the mountains is a little more pronounced so I passed. I have to save my strength for tonight's poker game!
The last two weekends have been fairly productive. I spent several hours on Saturday and Sunday, installing new sprinkler heads and a new line after all of our outside construction work and then painting the stucco which had been repaired. Carolyn has been gardening and slowly bagging and trashing the abundance of "stuff" in several areas in the house that accumulates when you never move. But, there is always more to do!
Saturday, I went in for my eye exam and new contacts and my far vision actually needs a little less power, but we had to tweak my near vision to help with the clarity. Those pesky Excel spreadsheets in size 6 font are getting harder and harder to see.
Oh, after 17 years, we splurged on ourselves with an early Valentine's gift and purchased a new jacuzzi. Our old one was falling apart on the sides and the motor was no longer operational. This one is little smaller, but is more hydrotheraupetic and Carolyn is anxiously awaiting its installation in about two weeks. I wonder if I can claim it as a medical deduction?
Sunday was church and then dinner at the Stadium Brewing Co. with Pattie and Chris after watching at least a little bit of the Steeler - Denver game. And, then the work cycle begins again (I miss three and four day weekends).
