Catching up

 Had a quick visits with friends today

    Dan and Linda were down in Rochelle and I met up with them for a nice chat.  I have not seen them much since they moved to Rockford.

    Had a nice phone chat with friend John, catching up with all his news.

    I enjoy the chats, although they are not often enough or long enough.  And as the years go by that is an important factor in life.

    I think I finally figured out how to program our new thermostat.  The test will come today when the temps go up or down as programmed.  

    I don't sleep well in hot environments.  Last night when I went to bed it was 73 in the bedroom, way too warm for me.

    I could not figure out how to program the thermostat. 

    I played around with it today and I think I have I so it is set at 70 at 9 pm. and 72 at 8 a.m.  We'll see.

    I ordered something from Amazon only to find out I already had the item.  Now I have to send that back.  The advertised item did not look like what I had, but they are the same.  Go figure.

    Win or go home for the Cubs tonight.  I am pretty sure they will win.  After all, Wrigley Field has some magic in it.

    Maybe Ernie and Ryno can push some of those fly balls off Cub bats into the bleachers.  

    Only drawback is the game does not start until after 8.....it will be a late night.

    And my porch plants seem to have decided it is time to shrivel. Must be the cooler nights.

Peace and Love
