Weekly Update 11/3/2019

I did so little this week, that the only things I really have to report are I got a haircut and got the oil changed on the car. Big whoop.

On Wednesday, however, Barbara, June and I went to the Tybee Post to see the Downton Abbey movie instead of playing Rummikub. I’d already seen it, but liked it so much that I wanted to see it again. Before they showed the film, there was a tea served on the lawn of the theater, and also a costume contest. People dressed up as characters from Downton Abbey, but since no one on show every wore jeans and an old shirt, I wasn’t a participant.

I was ready, but I got zero trick and treaters!

Friday, I went to see Dracula at the SCT. I enjoyed it, but it probably would have been more fun to see it BEFORE Halloween. Those young actors and actresses always do such an amazing job.

June’s is getting ready to sell her condo, and on Saturday, her Realtor had workers come in to paint, clean and “stage” her home. Because she had to be gone while they were working, we spent some time together. We drove out to the Mall (gasp! - you know what a good friend I am if I would do that!). I needed to buy a new crossword puzzle book at Barnes and Nobles, and we looked around at all the Christmas crap that is in all the stores already. Then we went to lunch. I was disappointed because we had planned to go to a new restaurant that recently opened not far from us, but when we got there, it was closed. I don’t know what that was about, except perhaps because it was Rock and Roll Marathon day, and many roads were closed throughout the city for the runners. Perhaps the owners of the restaurant felt they would not have enough business. We had burgers at a place in Thunderbolt, and then went to visit Jimmy. I didn’t get a chance to see what was done at her condo, and I’d like to see how they change it. But I’ll have other chances.
