Spent most of the day looking for a lost coin. It's a 1910 $20 gold piece worth now about $900. I haven't any idea of where I might have stashed it. I have two "safe" boxes in my clothes closet where I keep my coins. It's not there, nor anywhere else I looked. I'm not too thrilled about losing that coin because I've had it a long, long time, and it only cost me about $350 when I bought it. Rhoda says I should empty all my drawers--which I probably will, but I don't think I would ever put it in a drawer.
Thankfully for friendship, we made last minute arrangements for dinner with Mike and Helen H. One of our favorite places is "Sweet Tomatoes" where you can have all the salad and food that you want at the buffet stops for $6.49. Problem is that at these "all you can eat" buffets you take their word literally and eat all you can eat and perhaps even more. And how can you pass up the chocolate and french vanilla yogurt with syrup and sprinkles for dessert? Not very likely.
It's now Thursday and the cleaning ladies came at 11am--when I usually spring out of bed. So, I had to slink out of bed about 10am, and figure out what I was going to do until 1:30 when I planned to go to a Computer Club meeting. After all, at their web site, when you click on "Club Celebs" there is a nice article and picture of me mentioning the fact that I have had two books published. So, I figured the people at the meeting might be lining up for my autograph; to my shock, I figured wrongly. I walked in appropriately a smidgen late, but not a head turned. I carried a small notebook with me, so for spite, I signed my name in it--to see how it looked. Unfortunately, because I have tremors in my fingers, I couldn't recognize the name.
Oh. The cleaning lady who has been coming here every 3 weeks for as long as I can remember, announced that she can't come every 3 weeks anymore. I asked her how often she could come and she stunned me when she said "...every 2 weeks". I told her we are only 2 people here and it takes us 3 weeks to dirty the apartment, and that therefore we could no longer use her services.
Buenos dias despues manana.
