Notes - good family day / Aunt Patsy

         Late evening. You and Carol had a good day. After packing the car to leave you sat down with Kim, Paul, Owen and Brennan and opened presents for one another. Owen and Brennan both got a variety of new shirts, pants and socks. Both enjoyed them, particularly Owen. He is into nice colorful buttoned shirts. Brennan likes shirts without buttons. They also both have a two-sided easel with accessory equipment. Both can draw or paint or chalk at the same time. They were looking forward to using it. Kim and Paul received movie theatre passes and money. They gave you and Carol each a Fitbit Charge HR and for both of you a Logitech Harmony 700 rechargeable Full Media Remote. – Amorella

         2257 hours. The directions say it will take 45 minutes to program but after that you only need one remote for the TV, DVR/DVD, Audio Bar, Cable, Movies, Music, Roku, Apple TV, Netflix, Amazon Prime, YouTube and all the rest of the applicable Internet. This is going to be a challenge but I would like to be able to set this up on my own without calling Paul to help via the video phone setup, so he can show me what to do on the screen.

         Tomorrow you can work on stuff. Post. - Amorella

         2308 hours. Before coming home we stopped to see Cathy and Tod then the four of us went to see Aunt Patsy. She was looking good and healthy for being in her early nineties. We all had good conversations about religion in general, Westerville First Presbyterian Church then and now, Christians and a side of old family stories that only the family matriarch can tell well. We had an enjoyable hour and a half – it is good to see Aunt Patsy still strong in her views and debates. Everyone had a good time, particularly Aunt Patsy – which of course was the idea. She knows family things no one else knows and she gladly shares them with us. It was a real treat.
