Been busy

The furniture and boxes were unloaded, so we have spent hours and hours unboxing. The kitchen dishes are all in the cupboards, the lanai looks great, the guest room is ready for company, and the bedroom is almost finished. Don't ask about the living room, dining room, and den. Those will have to wait until October.

We also managed to get our driver's licenses and car tags. I chose the End Breast Cancer tag; Mark chose the Space Shuttle Challenger and Columbia tag. Both provided an opportunity to make a $25 donation to these causes.

Tomorrow we have so many chores left on the list that we may have to prioritize since I don't see how they will all get done. The most important one is to go get Walt Disney World Florida resident season passes and get into the park. We are going to the Magic Kingdom for Summer Nightastic, which ends on Saturday. With luck we'll get to go to the Disney Studios park on Saturday for their last night of the special Twilight Zone Tower of Terror ride.

Tonight we participated in our first Solivita activity. Every Thursday is movie night. Starting at 7 p.m., a fairly recent movie is run and free soda and popcorn is doled out. All you have to do is show up with your resident ID. We got there just as the movie started and discovered the Starlite Ballroom was packed. We barely found two seats. The movie was Date Night with Steven Carrell. It was very funny. We really enjoyed it. When we got home, we broke down 16 more boxes and tied them into bundles for recycling. Then I had some of the brownies my neighbor baked and brought over this morning. Nice.

  2. Thanks for the comment, Evelyn. It's good to hear from you. We are about ready to go to the Disney Park today. I have done all the chores I intend to do today. Ha ha!! I have done all the things I wanted to do this week, so it's definitely time to go have some fun. I almost never get comments on the blog, so this was a real treat to find your note. Thanks again, Love,
    Becky
