Back In The Old Routine

Well, now that the big party has come and gone, it's time to get back to the tasks at hand. Today, we finally get the motorhome back. It's been gone for over 5 weeks. I certainly hope that the five things that were in need of fixin' are now ok.

Last night, we went to the ballgame between the Indians and the "Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim". No team should have a name that is so long. The barbershop chorus got a block of 50 tickets for free, so it was a good chance to take in another game. It was a beautiful night and the Tribe gave it their all but lost 5-4.

We are in the early stages of remodeling the upstairs bathroom, so that work will now be continued. Ripping up carpet, prepping the walls and then painting them and re-doing the ceiling are the immediate jobs. Then we will have tile put on the floor.

Thursday night, the chorus is singing for an Italian-themed dinner in Medina. Then on Friday, the quartet and wives are going to Sandusky. We have a "stroll and sing" gig there that evening, and plan to spend the afternoon at The Firelands Winery. Moderation, moderation, moderation.

Financial note: Our lottery ticket for the $170 million prize did not come through last night. So everyone will need to pay their own mortgage at least until Friday. Then we try again for the prize, which is now $207 million.
