Weekly Update 1/20/2013

Well, looks like there will be a San Francisco / Baltimore Super Bowl.  That makes it complete - I did not get any of the winners for my picks.  Now, really who cares? 

Donna got me out two times this week. On Thursday there was a program at Massie School. Since I know a little about the school, I thought it would be interesting to learn more. Juliet Gordon Low's mother was there, dressed beautifully in an antebellum hoop skirted dress, to tell visitors a little about herself & her family. Really cool. And on Friday, we went to the Savannah Children's Theatre, which we love to do, for a fabulous performance of Willie Wonka. I had made -gasp! - homemade mac & cheese to eat before the play, & it was ok. My days in the kitchen are far behind me, but Donna was a trouper, and said it was good.

No wonder I'm so tired. I've been up all night (not really that unusual) watching the tennis. But last night, not only was I up, but I was on the edge of my seat for the 5-hour match between Djokovic & Wawrinka. Wonderful, marvelous tennis!

I've been sneezing & blowing my nose for a few days. Because the weather has cooled down again to more seasonable temps after some record highs a week ago, I'm not sure if I got a cold or if the spring-like air fooled the pollen into believing its time to get out there & do their damage & I'm in the grips of the allergies they cause. I had to close my bedroom windows last night - I'll see if that helps.

I still can't upload photos to this blog.  I'm about to give up.  Google doesn't fix it.  I haven't been able to recieve mail all day from my yahoo account.  Yahoo doesn't care.  I am really really sick and tired of things not working like they should, when i'm forced to watch tv ads about it's possible to do 2 things at once on your deivce, or you can just click your ipod with another and have things transfered, while i can't even get my photos or mail loaded.  one night last week, comcast "interupted service" while i was watching the tennis.  They were sorry, and promised it would be fixed soon (and it was).  But, whatever happened to things and people working as they're supposed, or at least trying?

  1. Let's see if I can finally get a comment to post. I have been unsuccessful up till now. My mom enjoys watching the tennis and Fred has watched all the football games, but no one he wanted has won either. We will probably go to the RV park anyway though and watch the Super Bowl with our friends over there. We had friends from TX stop in yesterday (1/20) on their way to Orlando and tomorrow some friends from MS are coming to visit. On Super Bowl weekend some friends from the Nashville area are coming down for a long weekend.

  3. As with Jan, I've tried to post comments each week to no avail! Still enjoying reading your blogs; you are a very good writer, Wilma. Have you ever thought about writing a book? ;-)
    It's been cold here in Wales, but nice. I continue to walk 4 - 6 miles most days, and do some exercise every day, but boy can I eat as well!
    It's snowing again here, solid for the last hour. I really love to see it as I grew up in Florida so had a very sad, not childhood.
    Hope to see you this Spring at our place or yours :-). Dave's mom is coming back with us March 1 for 3 weeks so maybe you and Donna would want to come over?
    Thanks for continuing to include me.

    Love ya, Lisa xx
