Betty was back and forth with her tenants, who were complaining about all kinds of problems with the house. Finally, the husband said they'd leave; he later sent her an e-mail demanding that the rent for the entire week be returned. We're going down there this morning to check the house; then Betty's visit with me will be over. I've enjoyed having her here and traveling around with her and was so sorry when she told me she's leaving next week. Yesterday, we took several things to the post office, visited the SOCH thrift store, ate a veggie lunch at home, but then (foolishly) went to the Chinese Buffet for dinner.
What a spread! There seemed to be every variety of food known to man and I think I sampled most of it. Later, I worked on the damn proofreading of The Breeze; what a chore and where were all the contributors (and the typists at Senior Publishing) when teacher taught that punctuation goes inside quote marks? (As for the use of italics, everybody seemed to be out in the hall during that little lesson.)
We're taking a luncheon cruise on the Crystal Queen riverboat today. According to an article in The Press of Atlantic City, the excursion is on "calm, protected waters...in Absecon Bay and intercostal waterways." Should be fun and I hope it doesn't rain.
