I’d just come out of the shop with a roast beef sandwich, large chips, ear of corn & a jumbo sausage. A poor homeless man sat there and said ‘I’ve not eaten for two days.
\n‘ I told him, ‘I wish I had your will power.’\u00a0 The scale said 195.9<\/strong> pounds<\/strong> this morning!<\/p>\n

Yeah! Approximately ten more to go… As soon as Paul gets to 185 he is going to make an appointment with his generalist!\u00a0 Doctor Asbill has been Paul’s doctor since Paul worked for Rockwell and became a member of the executive staff… He was required to have an annual physician then.\u00a0 That was in the late 1980’s and Mark always told Paul he ought weigh in at 180 pounds!\u00a0 Twenty years later Paul is within striking distance!<\/p>\n

We got up at 7:30 AM within a few minutes of each other and headed for our morning cup of tea!\u00a0 Paul had a big day planned, more chores.\u00a0 First things first… The cable must go!\u00a0 It has been out and ugly for two years!\u00a0 Paul gets and idea!\u00a0 What the heck was the cable doing?\u00a0 It went from the back of the modem\/router to the “internet” input on the TV.\u00a0 Paul gets an idea…<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

It is the age of wireless after all!<\/p><\/div>\n

WIRELESS!\u00a0 Paul turned on the TV, went to settings, turned on the wireless to our LAN and pulled the plug… Volia, the picture stayed on.\u00a0 It appears as though the TV and the Apple TV are both wireless and we have a great wireless system.\u00a0 15 minutes later, the cable is pulled and ugly disappears!\u00a0 Paul did NOT have to go into the attic!\u00a0 Success!\u00a0 Time for breakfast!<\/p>\n

We did a potpourri for breakfast! We pulled all the take-homes and left-over out and made our selection!\u00a0 Paul’s was Chinese-Indian fried rice,\u00a0 a stuffed mushroom, potato-leek soup, and a small pizza.\u00a0 It was delicious!\u00a0 Sue stuck to stuffed mushroom and two different tpes of pizza.\u00a0 It was fun and GOOD!<\/p>\n

Did You Know? Potpourri is form early 17th century (denoting a stew made of different kinds of meat): from French, literally \u2018rotten pot\u2019.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n

In the afternoon Paul went to the garage to get the new air compressor going… After a trip tot he local lumber yeard to get “adapters” it was up and running.\u00a0 When he turned it on, Sue came “running” out of the house asking if the truck had hit him!\u00a0 It apparently was a little loud!\u00a0 Paul played with it for about 15 minutes and even “cleaned” the tool chest drawers by hitting them with 125 psi of compressed air!\u00a0 Worked GREAT!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Sears had a no-return policy…<\/p><\/div>\n

It was getting late so we decided to watch TV before getting ready to go out ot the Phoenix Club.\u00a0 We watched two episode of Grey’s Anatomy and when raised the question of going out this evening to a vote…\u00a0 The “Nay’s” won… We stayed home and binged on Grey’s Anatomy.<\/p>\n

Dinner was very light and we had dessert just before going to bed.\u00a0 One of the episodes we watched was about a fat guy weighing in at 650 pounds… Made Paul happy he was staying on the diet!<\/p>\n

It was 10:30 PM and the eyes were drooping so we crashed!\u00a0 It was a good day!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
