Friday, February 20, 2026 I guess it isn’t fair to say that we haven’t been doing anything. We’ve read a lot and watched TV. I generally read a lot and watch TV, but Keith seems to have found something entirely new and exciting.

Wednesday, February 18, 2026 We didn’t do entirely nothing today. We took several walks in the lovely weather. I stayed up until 2am finishing my book because I was really enjoying it. No construction sounds woke us up and we slept really late. Keith went for pizza (buy one large, get one half off –

Tuesday, February 17, 2026 There was noise upstairs this morning. That was surprising because as near as we can tell, we are the only ones in our building. Our first night there was a very shrill, loud woman next door. We contemplated calling the front desk to ask why in all of these many, many

Monday, February 16, 2026 We had dinner at Bubba’s fish and BBQ or something like that. Keith decided to have ribs. I asked him if he was having them fried. He was confused. I said it says one of the options of preparation was fried (I read the words after ribs…) He had not seen

Sunday, February 15, 2026 Alexander slept over last night so he could take us to the airport at 6am. He is very nice. We were very entertained while we waited at the gate by the coaxing of another gate agent to get five people to voluntarily take a later flight. They ended up offering $900.

We have to leave very early Sunday, we have friends gathering for dinner tomorrow, as well as a show to go to tomorrow night. I need the suitcases done!

Thursday, February 12, 2026 Who knew that was going to be so good? Not I. EB, Kathy, Keith, and I set off for the Artistry theater’s production of Kiss Me Kate at about 6:35. We landed at just 7pm. I was happy we had more time to chat, because chatting time with friends is great.

Wednesday, February 11, 2026 We went to Theater Latte Da tonight to see The Glass Menagerie. We both think we read it in high school, but had never seen it, nor did we remember much. It was very good. The set was super cool. They used a video camera carried by Tom (narrator and character)

Tuesday, February 10, 2026 I had my eyes dilated two days in a row. The cataract surgery people called and had an appointment for me this afternoon. The doctor was really nice. She concurred I need surgery. Then we had a weird conversation about what would I like her to improve in my vision. Like?
