Blog is back on both laptop and desktop. Finally figured out the right password.
Today the Landscaping people are back at work, so I will try to get them to plant my little lemon tree.
Yesterday Andrew Mack came over and we wasted no time heading for the Sunday brunch. It turns out that, unlike the regular meals, the brunch allows you to take food home in 'doggie bags' so some people had three or four bags of food!
Mack and I explored the campus after that, and even walked to the street on a nature trail that runs on the outside of the fence, a two mile public trail open to everyone. It can be accessed through several gates along the La Costa property which can be opened by my gate key. My car has a sticker now that opens the main and back gates automatically. I have a remote button to open the garage door from the car.
Last night I put my trash out in front of the garage, suitably sorted into trash, paper and metal/glass. This morning it was gone. Tonight I put my sheets and a bathmat out for the laundry to pick up tomorrow morning. This Wednesday is not a cleaning day, but next Wednesday a lady comes to clean my whole place.
Thursday is another trash and recycle day.
I am getting pictures hung, tools and office stuff sorted, wires plugged in for recharging computers. At 2:30 I will take a break and go to a lecture on science and medicine.
Tomorrow I have been told I must attend the big Halloween gala when people come in elaborate costumes, starting at 7:00. Before that they serve a feast with such items as "Howling Good Chicken Marsala and Zombie Stir Fry"!
I got a welcome call from a Lemonberry neighbor introducing himself and his wife. He used to be the Mayor of Manhattan Beach.
Love to all, Val
