Good evening. It’s been a bright beautiful day with a stiff breeze and a high of 70°. Mark worked on the project house for about four hours this morning with Lew. After the yard waste truck picked up today, the place across the street is looking pretty fantastic. We sat there at happy hour and admired all their work. It’s really quite amazing to see the shape of the whole house come together. There are a lot of nice trees on the property, they just been crushed by the crazy vines. After the waste company had picked up, Lew came over with his blower while Mark picked up trash cans and swept. Things are looking up in the hood. 😎

I began work on eBay today after doing a couple of hours of necessary paperwork. Otherwise, it has been a run-of-the-mill retired-style day.

Speaking of retired… A friend of Mark’s from high school has bought a property about 1 mile away from us. He has been living in Northern California and decided to make the move to Central Florida. Mark thinks that Pam may remember him, his name is Larry Paul. We’re looking forward to seeing him and perhaps taking him out on the boat.

Lew popped in for happy hour and had a glass of chablis. I’ve sold a few things for him on eBay and I had to pay up today. Whaaa waaa. 🤣. Marks garden is paying off already, we had eight tomatoes today. That sounds pretty good for those of you who are still digging out after the latest snowstorm. ❄️ 

We watched American Idol tonight, a little bit of the hockey game and now it seems to be time for bed. 😴
