our gym was recently renovated & a friend asked
about the men’s locker rooms.
The only thing I noticed was a new rug.
No other evidence of upgrades – at least
in the women’s locker room…..

LA FITNESS is definitely a no frills gym
but the instructors are quite awesome.

Saw this license plate while driving yesterday.
Can you decipher??

I had to go to the Career Link office just to use the phone.
Yes, just to use the phone. Crazy, right?

there is a direct line to the Unemployment Office
so you can get right through. Otherwise it is an
exercise in futility.  Redial for 45 minutes then on
hold for 45 minutes & risk getting disconnected.
Craziness.  Fortunately, it seems, my “issue” has
been resolved & after 6 weeks of no compensation
$$ should resume. My savings account is happy about that!

HOPEFULLY I will soon get a job & won’t have to
be concerned about Unemployment!!!

Held a wine tasting at the Newtown Liquor store.
Sold 10 cases of wine in 2 hours – that’s pretty
darn good!! How can you resist NOT buying
wine for $4.99 when is usually costs $10.99?

Ray lives near the store where I was doing
the tasting. He stopped in & bought a case
of wine then I went over his house at the
conclusion of the tasting.

Brother Raymond made us grilled tuna sandwiches
for dinner – I never had a grilled one before tonight.
It was GOOD!

Thanks for dinner Raymond 🙂

    Did you decipher the license plate? It took me a minute but in case you are still pondering: use the force 🙂
