Relaxing, Planning, Scheming

Coker, Alabama

Weather: low 72 degrees, high 89 degrees, mostly cloudy skies

Today was a day for relaxing, planning, and scheming. The relaxation was earned because of the hard work this week, even though we took a day to go have some fun. The planning took place because of what we will need to do to get Terri moved when the house sells. And we know the house will sell to the first person that looks at it. We can only hope. The scheming was some out of the box thinking on Terri's long term plans with respect to her housing plans. Even though we were not doing anything physical, we were still tired by the end of the day because of how busy we have been.

Our goal is that Terri and Thomas will be out of the house after July. That should give us time to find them a place to live and get moved. It will be a busy month, with Lori and her family coming up from Texas for a visit on July 10. They will be here for a few days, and we are looking forward to seeing them.

We tried another Mexican restaurant tonight. The best thing I can say about Taco Casa is that it was better than the last Mexican restaurant we went to, but doesn't hold a candle to what we can get in Texas. Am I hard to please? Not really, but if I'm paying for something, I should be able to complain if what I'm buying doesn't meet my expectations.

I had to go to the library this morning to get some books, and it was amazing to me how light the traffic was. The library, which is a very nice one with all kinds of services, only had 4-5 customers. Employees greatly outnumbered customers. I'm not sure what's going on, except that people may be trying to save gas by cutting back and combining trips.

The Farmer's Market in Tuscaloosa was open, but I didn't take the time to stop. We'll have to check it out next week to see if they have anything we might be interested in. We like to visit these markets, especially when they have local products.

More later, be safe.
