2014/09/20 (S) Bus Talk

All days have the same number of hours.  How those hours are divided up between light and dark, awake and asleep, busy or at leisure, varies with each day.  Basically, our day went like this:

  • We went to our weekly SLAARC breakfast in South Lyon.
  • We returned home so Linda could get to work on the bakery software conversion project.  She did that all day except for a break to go for a walk.
  • I called D. R. Electric Appliance to check on the range.  As I had figured it did not arrive yesterday (they would have called if it did).  They supposedly ordered it on Tuesday and told me it would take three days to get.  They do not receive product on the weekend so maybe Monday.
  • I worked at my desk on editing and uploading blog posts until 11:30 AM.
  • I went to Recycle Livingston with our weekly load.
  • I stopped at Lowe’s for a 250VAC/15A circuit breaker, outlet, and box.
  • Lowe’s parking lot connects to Walmart’s parking lot, so I stopped there for ICE brand flavored sparkling water and picked up a couple of bottles of  Leelanau Cellars Witch’s Brew seasonal spiced wine.  We had this last fall and enjoyed it.
  • When I got back to the house we had a light lunch of sourdough pretzel nibblers and hummus and then resumed our work.
  • By mid-afternoon I was tired so I took a nap.  I often do better sleeping when I’m tired rather than when I am supposed to sleep.  I also wanted to be rested enough to enjoy dinner this evening.
  • We met Chuck at the Carrabba’s at West Oaks Mall at 7 PM.  He had arrived ahead of us so we only had to wait about 20 minutes to get a table.  Linda and I both had the Tag Pic Pac, one their two vegan options.  It was long, relaxed meal and a great conversation, some of which was about buses (Chuck and Barbara also own a Prevost H3-40 converted coach).  We pulled out of the parking lot a little before 10 PM.
  • Back home we watched season 5 episode 8 (final) of Doc Martin.

That was our day and did not include construction projects or taking photographs.
