Friday November 30/12  update #301

I thought I had bought a DVD of the TV miniseries “Empire”, 360 minutes long, but it wouldn’t play in either the DVD player or the computer.   It turns out the disc is completely blank!  From now on I will have every DVD checked before I buy them. 

Tom Thumb is continuing to visit much to my delight, although I am now convinced this is a new friend.  He isn’t frequenting the same haunts in the trees, nor is he chattering and singing from on high, like my old buddy did.   This one chatters on every approach to the window though and is not scared to be fed from my hand.   I hope he sticks around for a long while.

Bella is off on errands and to play bridge, leaving me to open the place for Rosa to do her bi-weekly cleaning.   They have switched to Fridays now so we will be splitting those duties monthly.

I then met Bella for our favorite burgers at Big Kabuda’s.   Bella informed me that she found a store near the University that sells quilling supplies as she is anxious to teach Carolina this craft.

When we caught the bus home we were fortunate to find seats as the bus soon filled up to the brim with folks heading for El Valle.  We took lessons from the school kids when we had to barge our way through to disembark.

We are already making plans for Xmas dinner and have already filled our guest list.   We don’t have enough chairs for any more anyway.

No photos today.

That was today’s excitement.   Hugs to all.
