There were 2 special events that we were assigned to work yesterday. The first was a seminar on VA benefits and we had 31 attendees which was excellent. Our jobs were to help with taking individuals and/or couples on Community tours following the presentation. There was another event - Dessert Extravaganza - where the chef had prepared a long table of desserts for people to enjoy that were invited to attend an open house at the Community. Of course, these events were running concurrently and people were everywhere. It was very difficult to locate the people we were assigned to take on tours and the whole 4 hours we spent working the events were mass confusion.
We survived the 4 hour stint and had the rest of the day off. The DirecTV tech came and connected us up to the dish that was already installed outside from a previous management team and we now have our full compliment of stations, DVR capability and high definition on most of our stations. The whole exercise cost us $25 for the call and $6 per month for the new receiver we have. Not bad at all. We've already watched a good movie (Secretariat) this morning.
Our schedule has us off for the next 2 days and we will enjoy that time to catch up on some chores around the apartment. I need to install the (curved) shower curtain rod, the paper towel holder under the sink and a couple of other small items to take care of inside. I may even get a chance to do some shredding that we brought with us. Ugh!
There was a short rain shower this morning but for the most part, we have had perfect weather. It's in the mid 70's just about every day with clear, blue skies. We could get used to this part of the country...
