Friday November 29th. Snowed and was pretty slippery driving here in Maine after 5 pm.


I think this is a new to YOU circle.  With the change over to the new iMac and all that's going on here I have lost track- sending mail from the old desktop to the new one.  Sort of like talking to oneself.

We had a lovely dinner at the neighbor's house yesterday afternoon...I chatted quite a bit with the host family's neighbor- lives one street over....about my age.  We have even lived in the same states and towns but not at the same times.  She is not as feeble as I am.  Sent me some items on her cell (to mine) while I tried to recall if the number I gave her was correct...it was.

On the way out, it was dark, raining and had snowed so of course I slipped on the grass and fell.  I didn't break anything- a bit of stiffness in my right shoulder but other than that.....okay. Our host drove us home- down the street four houses.

Today is usually grocery and Library... but Library is having a heating problem.  I bought the BIG container of oatmeal and am already 3 quarters done with the contents... 

The transition from the old computer to the new has been quite good.  

I sit here at the first dining room table of Married Life with the new iMac... our first purchase (the table) after moving to Georgia.  We had a table, ironing board, vacuum, and two lawn chairs. (when the owner of the table dropped it off- saw no chairs- he went home and brought over four chairs (on credit)). The chairs actually went with the table but we couldn't afford to buy them....the vacuum and ironing board were wedding gifts.  We had to go out and buy a bed.  We had been living in furnished rentals at college.  Had been gifted sheets and pillows as wedding gifts. Thank goodness.  I had a frying pan, a one quart saucepan and a Dutch oven.  Oh and a Betty Crocker cookbook.  That I still use.  Very very humble beginnings.

Anyway......the sun is shining and all the snow etc from last evening is gone. sidewalks etc are dry.

I am going to see if the tv works- yesterday when we got home from dinner...the tv had no images..no sound.  just didn't work...but the TiVo worked so I watched something I had recorded.
