Hi My Love. Please do not think that since I’ve not typed directly at you it means that I haven’t been thinking about you. That’s hardly the case because you are on my mind constantly.

I figure you know exactly what I’ve been doing, but I’m going to tell you about it anyway. At least the parts I remember. Yes, I still have that issue but it still doesn’t bother me. I don’t forget as much as I used to because I don’t have you to remind me. I really miss that. You were always able to fill in the gaps.

Yesterday the PT Cruiser group had lunch at the Olive Garden in Hillsboro, the one in the Fred Meyer parking lot. We’ve been there a few times before so it was a little bit nostalgic for me. There was a good turnout. Lydia was my date, but I sat next to Nelda. Rick, of course, did the footwork to make the reservation and ensured everyone was well informed. I was pleased that Steve and LaDeane showed up.

Let’s see. There was Rick & Jody, Steve & LaDeane, Me, Lydia, Nelda, Robbie & CC, and some other folks I’ve known for years and have seen a hundred times but can’t remember their names.

Here’s a sunset photo over the Sunset Blvd Church. Nice. Max was with me but he wasn’t impressed. His focus was closer to the ground.

The garage door quit working and that’s very inconvenient. Now I have to go in the front door which involves a key. So far it works okay but there’s always the danger of me forgetting how to use the key.

The problem appears to be with the safety feature that won’t let the door move if something is blocking the sensor. Visually there doesn’t appear to be a problem so it;s confusing. Jeff bought a new set of sensors that relived yesterday and I hooked them up today. They don’t light up at all. Now I’m in another quandary. I’m going to let it rest for a couple of days and see what it looks like then. Right now I’ve totally lost interest in the garage door.

Yesterday I visited with Carolyn for a while to show her how to manipulate her computer without having to log in to her apps over and over Barnes & Noble specifically was the issue. She likes her books. We got it figured out then she wanted to take me to dinner, so i agreed. I picked her up at 5:30 pm and we went to Plymouth Pub. She had. Pulled pork sandwich and I had a bunch of dead shrimp. It was good and we had a lot of time to visit.

Today the temp is supposed to be in the low 90’s. Tomorrow it soars to 97. Makes me want to run around naked but I’m pretty sure no one in the neighborhood wands that to happen. So, I’ll stay inside and take naps. Max will still get his walks but they will be short and early in the morning and late at night.

Today Cedric is 29. You knew that, of course. He’s got a girlfriend at work. I think her name is Wing. One of these days I might get to meet her. He told me that he’s working on her to attend our next family lunch on the 21st. I hope that works out. It should be fun for her to meet everyone all at once. Then again, that might be a bit much for some people. We’ll see.

The temperature was almost 90 today and the A/C decided to take a hike on me. It was 79 in the house almost all day and it wore me out. The thermostat is set to 65 degrees but it doesn’t seem to matter. So, I’ve decided that the thermostat is messed up of the A/C portion of the system doesn’t work. I’ve also considered that I just don’t know how the thermostat works After putting that down on paper, I think back on all the times I’ve run that thermostat up and down and it worked just fine. So I’m taking that one off the table. It’s not operator error. I’ll call the Columbia NW Heating on Monday about it.

On that note, I’m calling it a day. Good night My Love.
