Finished reading Jane Austen's Pride and Prejudice at 11 last night and don't quite know what to make of it. It must have been very daring in her day but she should have dared even more. Not sure why I never read the classics when I was in high school. Finished making the puzzle at 11am today. Went to Norwich's old Ames' Plaza for the yearly tests. The old Ames is now a Backus Out Patient Center with all sorts of neat stuff, Doctors, diagnostic imaging etc. It is very plush, beautiful, comfortable and everything was done on time. Hope they can keep it up. Very impressive.
Stopped to visit younger brother who came back from his trip to Arizona Wednesday night. He had a nice warm visit and was particularly thrilled about a Rock and Gem show he attended. Right now he's in the process of painting the master bedroom before his wife returns from her extra week stay in Casa Grande. I think I envy her! The weather is about to close in on us once again and she's missing all of the mess. I did get a chance to shine at cribbage. Another plus for the day.
Spoke with Southbridge sister-in-law who has the worst cold I've heard all year. Yikes, they had to put her on antibiotics. Her son will retire from the Coast Guard this Friday. It doesn't seem possible that we have nephews,nieces, and grand kids old enough to be retiring from anything. Older sister fell down the stairs in her apartment complex and broke her wrist. After waiting for 5 hours in the hospital to get it set they told her they didn't have anyone on duty and she had to go back the next day. Obama care is in and she thinks he's the greatest president ever :( Oh well, "Chacun son gout."
OK Now to top off the day : ta da . . . . UCONN men just beat #8 West Virginia. Woo! Woo!
