Before I went to bed last night I made a list of things I wanted to get done in the next few days. This morning, I decided I could manage to get most of them done today so once I had my morning chores done I set down and got started.
I ordered a Jetpack from Verizon a few days ago. This morning I had an email from Verizon with the amount of what our new bill would be, plus the following month's bill. Needless to say I was a bit upset as I had specifically asked if there would be a monthly charge to our bill for having the Jetpack and I was told no, there would be no monthly charge for it. This was done by online chat so I had that in print. I called Verizon this morning to ask about it and was told yes, I do have to pay the monthly fee. I told them I didn't want it (which I am already regretting, and will probably have to eat crow on). I don't know if the person I talked to was not trained properly, didn't understand my question (I have a hard time believing that from the chat printout), or they just flat lied to me. I spent quite a bit of my time on the phone/computer getting this done only to find out it was untrue! Extremely frustrating!
I posted a message to our local Escapees Facebook page that we will have a luncheon for our members that are here in the Valley on February 12, and called one of our members that is not on Facebook to let them know about it. I hope we have a good turnout.
Dean and I walked up to the clubhouse to look at the event signup sheets to see if there was anything we wanted to do and to look at the caps they are selling with our park name (Val's) on it. We didn't sign up for anything new, but I did notice they are having a park wide meeting, and one item they will be discussing, is raising the rates for 2020, so I guess I'll go up to see what that will amount to. It's a pretty decent rate here so unless it's a big increase I understand. There are lots of expenses with something like this that many people do not understand and the people who own it need to have a return of some kind. While we were there I checked our mailbox, but the prescriptions I ordered didn't come yesterday like they said. Hopefully they will show up after lunch. I took the last of that medication yesterday but if it comes today I'll be good. (I checked later in the afternoon and it was here - so all is good!)
It was such a nice day Nancy, Flora and I decided to go to Mom's Place, the little cafe that the ladies here in our park went to last week. I was telling Flora and Nancy about it and they thought it sounded good and they wanted to try it. We had a nice visit and the lunch was wonderful We all had the salad. I chose the chipotle chicken salad (it had a bit of a kick to it) to go with my salad. Nancy had the chicken salad with grapes and pecans, and Flora chose grilled chicken. Since it was Friday afternoon and near the end of the day (we went at 1:00), they gave us a slice of cake for free (they didn't want to throw it away). How nice was that? It was delicious too! When I took them back, Flora asked us to come in for a little while and we continued our visiting. They are so nice and fun to be with. I thoroughly enjoyed the time with them.
I set down and typed a letter to our grandson Logan who is at A school, in the Navy. I'm anxious to hear how he is doing now that he has started his training as a medic.
Dean told me at a little before 5, he was craving Kentucky Fried Chicken (just what we need!) and he had found one just a short distance away, so off we went to KFC! We brought it back to Bentley to eat. It was way to much food but I have to say it was good. Afterwards, I walked up to the clubhouse to play hand, knee and foot. Vicky and I were partners. We won by a little over 100 points - a very close game.
Shirley let me borrow an extra wooden stand to hold my cards and she will get me one like it for $5 from her friend. Yes!!!! She told me to keep this one to use until she can get it for me. That was such a nice gesture and I am grateful.

| This is the kind of stand I was looking for at Don-Wes. This one is okay but the knot holes do make your cards lean a bit. I think she keeps it for someone to use when they don't have one. Her friend makes them for $5. They are much nicer than what we found at Don-Wes, and cost less too! |
