Carriage Manor Days






Saturday morning off to the pool. Only 6 of us, as everyone else was getting ready for Carriage Manor Days. Parade is at 10 and it lines up in front of our unit. Kind of cute. Folks decorate their golf carts and different clubs participate. Complete with color guards and vets of many varieties-even some starched navy uniforms! Lois made a dandy omlette for breakfast. I used the stool to get the toaster down-a real toaster-not a toaster oven like last year (burnt toast, black smoke). One look at the electric cord and I put it back on the shelf. Probably from the 60's-fiber wrapped cording-and not in very good shape. Talked with Marie (Janesville) today. Told her I had met up with Neil and he was excited about home made cookies. We'll get together soon.



Went to an art, craft and quilt show at Valle del Oro resort today. That's where Christy and Glee (Racine quilters) live and play during the winter. Very nice quilt show, complete with demo's and free patterns. Christy invited me over for next Thursday's quilt club show and tell. Think I'll have anything to bring along? Stopped at a small quilt store in the neighborhood. We both walked out empty handed-can you believe it? A few groceries and LIME JUICE later, we headed home. I finished some posts for the blog and headed over to the computer lab. Closed til Monday. Lois took the movie back and tried to buy a Sunday paper on Saturday night. They thought she was crazy-what's the problem? We can do that at home! Rotisserie chicken and potato salad chased with a vodka gimlet. I was falling asleep after 8. Finally gave in and went to bed at 9 and slept til 7. Guess I was tried!
