Notes - such is life /

         Mid-afternoon. Carol, Kim and you just finished lunch at Max and Erma’s at Polaris and Carol and Kim are now looking for a mattress at The Original Mattress Factory for Brennan since he has been climbing out of his crib for a couple of days. Yesterday you could not find Aunt Patsy or Uncle Ernie so you stopped to see Cathy and Tod instead. This afternoon if there is time you will try again to stop at another care center to see where they are. If not, then next time. – Amorella

         1421 hours. I was quite disappointed. We stopped by the care center only to find Aunt Patsy had been checked out.

         After a quick stop at the outlet mall you headed on home to find everything in order. Later. – Dude – Amorella

         Kim and Paul said you and Carol could begin looking for a new TV they will give you for Christmas early. You found two to look at; a Sony Brava 50” Smart 3-D HDTV and a Samsung 50” LED Smart 3-D HDTV. Consumer Reports recommends looking at a Smart 3-D model. The main one you have presently is a 2003 Sony Brava 34” HDTV (a regular TV tube because the flat screens were not very good) one of the few available at the time. You bought it and a Bose sound system when you retired. Both are presently outdated and you are beginning to have some problems with the Sony though you both still like the actual HD picture produced. – Amorella

         2121 hours. Buying a TV is not as bad as buying a car but there is still a lot of research to be done which takes both time and focus. We haven’t really thought too much about buying one because until recently the Bose quit and we can’t get a new DVD player because none will connect to our old set. It is not the end of the world I have all the DVD’s packed away in the basement. We never did watch too many DVD’s anyway.

         The reason this material is being included is because it takes mental energy from the craft of writing. Such is life. Post, orndorff. - Amorella
