MacAvarell

So this is fun... we're at Grandma & Grandpa Avarell's house in Crestline, orienting them to the MacBook Pro.  They're going to take my old (a year old) laptop with them to the Veteran's housing in Barstow when they move.  We're not sure when that will be, but it should be fairly soon.  Since their room is quite small, they won't have room for a whole desk set-up... hence, the laptop.  

Grandma is "kind of" used to the Mac by now, but then again, she is 85 years old, and her memory is going.  Grandpa is brand new to the Mac, so right now I'm listening to Kory tell Grandpa how to use a Mac.  He's showing him the Mail program right now (for e-mail).  

Bryant, as I write this, is out plowing with Kory's snowplow.  (Men will be boys!)  I can't say I blame either of them. I think it'd be fun to go around and surprise people by plowing their driveways, etc.  I see people breaking their backs shoveling and think how fun it would be to take one swipe with this big ol' snowplow and ease their pain.

We're expecting another snowstorm tomorrow, that's supposed to last until Monday.  We can't continue with the roof work at the North Shore house until all this "weather" stops!

We will be going to the Red & White Ball for Valentine's Day this weekend. I sure hope I can fit into my dress!  The pounds (inches is really what I'm worried about) just haven't been falling off like I'd hoped.  Only down four pounds over the last two weeks.

Kandi just dropped in... smiling as always.  She brought some meals for Bill & Virginia, so Mom won't have to cook.  

I guess that's about it from here. Looking forward to only one client tomorrow, then Sacred Time with Kory.

Until next time...
