8 PM and I Finally Got to myLot

Eugene, Oregon
April 18, 2023 9:52pm CST
Anne is out at a Cancer Society Survivors meeting each Tuesday evening this and next month. It starts a 6 PM & goes to 8, so she'll be home soon. I had a busy day with a writing workshop, followed quickly by lunch, then ping pong for a while. Dinner was a pizza at 5 PM. It was rainy & too cool here today, with a wind out of the southwest. There was snow on the nearby hills overnight. It's spring and the birds are singing. We are looking for sunshine.

It's been sunny in my part of Missouri the last three days. We're supposed to have rain Thursday thru Sunday... I got out and worked in the yard this afternoon, picking up deadfall from the trees and mowing the area I cleared. If you want to play outside tomorrow, there's still a section of yard that has more deadfall that needs cleaned up and then mowed.

It's good you're still playing pingpong. We've been playing board games with our son and enjoying those times.

Board games are so much better than computer games. Is or was your son a fan of Ahmad Jamal? I know your son plays jazz.

@JamesHxstatic If I think of it, I'll ask him tonight. When we're home in WA (OUR WA lol) we play a board game on our computers - two of us in Perth and one or two in Ireland. Cheers for technology.

Weather there and here sounds somewhat similar. Not a fan of cold weather at all . Your day although busy sounds like it was nice!

I love ping pong/ table tennis. I'm rubbish at it but that's half the fun!

Eating dinner at 5 m is healthy I only have snacks at that time and wind up with a boiled egg and hot milk.

We usually eat at about 6:30, which I like better. Had to eat early for Anne's meeting.

Pizza always sound good. Of the five women there last night, two had bad news of recurring cancer. One is only about 30. Sad to hear.

Ping pong is fun. I haven't played it for a long time.

I started playing in my 20s, but had not played for many years. Now, I have played two or three times per week for about seven years.
