Mixed bag . . .

Getting used to living in this old house again without worrying about where we're going. Just living in the here and now.  Let the future unfold.

Went to breakfast at Roadside and one of the owners sat with us making sure we'd go to their new place in Canterbury. I told him, in a kidding voice, bien sur, that is was too far. He had a baby conniption fit and then explained the move was related to the landlord in Central Village. It's possible that they don't see eye to eye. She can be a tough old bird. But I like her. It does look like Trish, our favorite waitress, may be taking over the Roadside and making it into her own. She's been wanting to own her own place for a long time so I hope it all works out for her. She'd just have breakfast and lunch.Keeping my fingers crossed. Three months after the guys open their new place at  Dino's in Canterbury they will have the option to buy the entire little mall for 1.2 million. Hopefully all goes well . They will keep the name Dino's for a few months and have not come up with a new name yet. I'm still disappointed but if Trish can get her life's dream of running her own place then I'm all for it.

Grampa had time for early breakfast because he's only going to school for third period for now. The early class is working on a cardboard boat competition and the third period is now working on the solar/electric car competition. The man is in his glory fixing machines at the school and enjoying every bit of the time at PHS. Nifty.

Had to call Metrocast this morning because our computer and Wifi are so slow it's ridiculous. Supposedly they cleared it up by having me unplug the phone for 20 seconds but I'm not sure that did the trick. I'm using the iPad 2 in Kiddo's room because it is still too slow in the kitchen which is where I like to work. Hell's bells. I can't get a break. I really like this iPad. I can work so much faster on it. That's incredible. I can imagine that daughter-in-law is thrilled with the latest edition because I love this second oldest version!

On a different note:  it is now taking me almost an hour to get all of my new exercises done first thing in the morning and, on a good note, it seems to be paying off.  Wow, the therapist has added eight new exercises and even though it takes me a  while to plod through them I feel pretty good afterwards.  So perhaps all of this stretching is going to work well.  On top of that I still have to do my half hour of walking outside or inside.  Cool stuff for sure.

Also, a very good note:  middle child called last night just to talk.  That is so nice. It's wonderful that she now has some time to just relax and call.  Another cool beansies in the book!
