Saturday - November 17

It was a very good, productive Saturday.....first of all, the news that Vicki, my sister-in-law is improving and now in progressive care was a big relief.   She sat in a chair today and also did some exercises for her new knee.   So thankful to hear this!

The day started out chilly, but the sunshine warmed things up quickly and we had a high of 80..    After breakfast, we were off with me getting a manicure and Mark to Lowe's and Home Depot.    Stopped at Target (bit more Christmas shopping + Starbucks).    Then the hunt was on for outdoor patio dining furniture.    We checked several places and decided on a set - really excited and will be delivered end of December.    Then to the flea market - this place is usually a ZOO, but what a treat today getting a close-up parking spot and just a leisurely walk around with not that many people.    Didn't get anything, but was fun just checking on a few things.,

Had lunch at University Grill.    This place has always been open for lunch (Mark has never eaten here) but at some point, now they don't open till 3.    There were several cars in the parking lot around 1:15 and many people walking in.    There was a large crowd in the private room for lunch after a memorial service.    The hostess and manager  told us we could come in and eat.....had the entire place to ourselves till we were almost finished and then 2 other groups came in.    Good food and this place is a sister to one of our very favorites - The Prawnbroker.

Back to Flo.......................tah dah!    The potty was installed along with the shower nozzle and faucet.    What a surprise..............he came on a Saturday and got that much done - still need the hot water heater, but......this is a start down the home stretch!

Tonight we did laundry, so glad to get that out of the way...
