Been Zoomimg a lot lately, even went Pro. Thursday, I surprised Alesa with a Zoom meeting with Steve & Laura as a replacement for their real visit which was scheduled for that day. After that we Zoomed with Jeff and family in Arizona. Bailey had his sister bleach his hair.
Trip Log
We are surviving isolation well, we think we are busier than ever finishing old projects and starting new ones. Last Friday we took a 37 mile golf cart ride to some far reachable parts of The Villages and beyond.
Monday we cleaned house and then bought about 5 pounds of jellybeans in search of the black ones which we never found. People must be hoarding them. Tuesday we painted the back hall and set up payment for our two week France Viking cruise in October . We booked through AAA in Bangor, ME.
Hope everyone is having a safe and happy Easter. We golfed this morning and had a very nice 'ZOOM' videoconference with the kids and grandkids this afternoon. We were all together with Mike and family playing Monopoly (Penn State variety) and Jeff and family by their pool with the dogs.
Our 'little farmer' (Niebauer means little farmer in German) has been busy tending the gardens and her compost pile. The local Ford dealer picked up the car this morning to do the recalls and they called this afternoon to say they would have it back in the morning.
Today was somewhat of a quiet day. It was a hot day and we didn't feel like doing much outside. After breakfast I made butter noodles (big, fat ones) and then potato soup and that's what I had for dinner. It was yum, just like I used to make.
Who knew we could save the world by sitting on out butts all day and watching TV, now let's not screw it up. Alesa is doing her part by binge watching Britbox, specifically 'Death in Paradise'. This morning we went to Sam's and found all the items on our shopping list including toilet paper.
We are now into April and isolation is a way of life. We are doing well catching up and keeping busy. All activities are closed but golf. We golfed this morning despite the continuous sprinkle, barely enough to get you wet. We are hoping for some stronger rain this afternoon, we need it.
Alesa and I continue to play platform tennis and hike. There is no one else on the courts but we use our own equipment and wash our hands when we get home. I am disappointed with the people who continue to play pickleball. Usually 3 or 4 courts and about 20 people.
Had my semi-annual oncology appointment with the VA on Wednesday. It was held as a phone call and all is well. Had a phone call with our finance guy, got our tax refund and watched a launch on Thursday.
