Back Again

Back again at the library (Little Egg) on the same day.  Went to Shop-Rite earlier, in the miserable cold rain.  Stopped at Lowe's and got a on/off connector for the hoses.  Did this and that around the house.  Heard from agent Walter to the effect that the couple who saw the house the other day liked it, but it was their first time out.  He mentioned that the other couple with the dog, who thought they'd rent at first to see how they liked the area, then reneged, have again decided they might move here, but who knows?
My friend called to say she may not pick, so suggested I could skip the farm, which I will.  She'll get there soon and will drop off my veggies tomorrow.  Her husband, Dr. M., who's treating my poor little 'puter, didn't  mention any diagnoses or prognosis.  Darn...
My entire world has been upended, it seems.  For several years, I've followed a certain routine: Rise at 5:15, wash, get coffee, then settle down at the computer.  I write my blog first, then read my friend, Pat's blog, check for e-mail, reply, then read the other blogs (mostly pacifist) I frequent. That brings me to 7:00, when I go across the street to pick up Susan and we take our walk.  I actually set the alarm for an hour later, so I laze in bed until 6:15--decadence!--and I don't like that at all.
Now it's Wednesday and I'm again at the library. Stopped at Acme to have my blood pressure read.  It's 128/66.  I can never remember what's good or bad, so don't know.  Maybe it should be lower?  Dunno.
Haven't heard back from Dr. Mike yet; hope I do soon.

128 / 66 is excellent. Nice going!

I wish my B/P was that good.
Met a retired dentist here who said his sister dated a guy at Temple from AC who played football for HSHS. His name was Paul Maguire. I remember that name and seem to remember him as a good looking guy. Did he play with Pat?
Hope you get your computer soon. Can you use your tablet for anything important?

Pat, yes, Paul Maguire played football with Pat. Can't remember if he graduated with Pat or my brother, Larry. I'm pretty sure Betty knew him, too--maybe dated him.
I COULD use the tablet for anything I can do on the desk top, but for some reason, the screen isn't lighting up. Wouldn't you know, it would be just at this time? Think I'll take it somewhere--but I have the idea it's some simple thing I hit wrong, or whatever.

TUESDAY

I started off the morning with some annoying problems with Amazon Japan re Christmas gifts, but I don't want to go into detail.  Left at...
