Charm and I Paint at Rendezvous Pointe

Took my computer in to our local computer guy in Pinedale this morning and had him install the new software and check over the whole thing to see if its working the way it should. I've had a lot of issues and errors since I got it. Maybe its just quirky. I don't know if he will let me sit and watch or not. I'd like to learn what I could while he does it. I really don't have much errands to use the time.

Today will be my first day out alone driving and such since I got sick, although I'll be with Charm all afternoon. I thought I'd stop by the clinic and see if they have my EEG results yet. Do the squeeking wheel thing, but never got up there. Just as well because they didn't get it yet. I feel pretty good today. As I scraped the last of the adhesive off my arm, my head seems to be feeling more back to normal. I found band aids and spot band aids here and there for several days. One of my friends said a while back they felt something on their butt and thought they had some kind of growth when they felt it it the shower. Afraid of what it was she asked her husband to check it out. It was a band aid where she had gotten a shot days earlier.

I had lunch with Judi and Rollie at the Rendezvous Point Senior Center. I always love a chance to see my friend Judi. Sue had wonderful beef stroganoff and homemade croissants. Then in the afternoon Charm and I got together to paint in the art room after she got the beauty treatment. I took my pastels. The weather report didn't sound good so we will stay inside rather than set up outside. Then we went together to have dinner at the Chinese restaurant before going to a meeting .

Kay The Windshield Doctor

While Charm and I were painting, Judi came in and said that Kay the Windshield Doctor was out in the parking lot fixing someone’s windshield. I said I had been trying to get together with her for over a year now to fix the nicks in mine, so ran out to catch her. And she did get the windshield all fixed up. I think I had five more or less small nicks that she took care of. That was quite painless for me not to have to make an appointment and meeting her somewhere, or for her not to have to come to the house. Sometimes things ARE easy.

Kay not only repairs windshields, she takes wagon train trips into the mountains along the Oregon Trail in the summer. http://www.wagonsacrosswyoming.com/

The meeting is for the committee working on the (hopefully) new Pinedale Fine Arts Center. It's not until 7 p.m. so I hope I don't turn into a pumpkin before I get home tonight. All of our local artists, The Fine Arts Council and others are excited about this wonderful prospect. They are asking the artists for input on what we want the building to be as well. So I'll let you know how its going when I next "blog". (I may not have the computer back for a day or so.) Later this week we have an appointment in the morning to meet with the County Commissioners who will approve the funding and other aspects of the plan.

Joe stayed home. So did the dogs. He took a Chess Pie to Norm and Jep to thank them for coming over to check on the dogs and all last weekend. I made an extra one for them last night. He was all set with leftovers for lunch and dinner.

Well.......here I go unplugging the life support from the tower!! And hope I can get it all back together when I bring it back.
