  • What a short day today was.  I got up and took my mile walk this morning and got back before it started raining.  Even though the rain meant that they didn't work on my house today, that's OK, because we really need the rain.  I did two large loads of laundry this morning (BOY do I ever miss my own washer and dryer) before Alice and I went to the movies.  We saw "The Lake House".  We both were kind of sniffling near the end, because we knew it couldn't have a happy ending, but . . . we were wrong.  I won't spoil it for you, but we were both very happy with the ending.


    Then, seeing as how this is Friday we went to the gym to do our tread mill walking, stationary bicycles, weight room and finally the swimming pool.  It's sooooooo nice to hop in the pool after a hard work out. 


    This evening I played a game of Scrabble with mom and wonder of wonders . . . I won. It was a good game and a high scoring one, and I was behind the entire game and won it on my last play.  I played an X to make two words . . . OX and AXE and the X was doubled both ways.  I got 35 points for playing that one letter, and that won the game for me.

  • I LOVE when that happens in Scrabble.  Sometimes everything goes my way, and other games all I get are all consonants or all vowels.  Frustrating.

    All your exercising makes me ashamed of myself----I need to exercise more, but don't.  Good for you---and Alice, too.

  • Experts say that knowing two and three letter words can add 50 pts. to your scrabble score during the end game. Mike

  • But I won the next night. both games were a lot of fun.:sunny::heartbeat::heartbeat:Mom

  • :goodjob: You are becoming a very good scrabble player.

  • Mom was just tired by then. LOL
