K and I went to Piccadilly for lunch. We brought home cherry cobbler for the girls. Penelope sang a praise song.

We went to DQ for an ice cream cake for Penelope’s early birthday. Yum!

Helped the kids with their homework.

Beautiful sunset.

Fun to see the things we did over the years on Ashley’s birthday!

Still going!

Walked 1.87 miles.

Fun talk with Anthony. He’s still at his Mum’s house. I kind of feel like he is in a situation similar to what I was in in Guatemala: Can’t leave.

Whenever I see words I don’t know I look them up. Are you familiar with these?

Also enjoyed talking with my Mom.

Helped the kids with their homework.

I’ve been working on curtailing my cell phone use to save data. I was using cellular data by accident and used up almost all my data. I’m in “Guatemala Mode” now. I tried only to use wifi at places or at where I was staying to avoid roaming charges. Now I’m finding it interesting where I have wifi (like at El Torreros) instead of just using cell phone data.

Instead of streaming podcasts, I’m downloading them and then playing them on my phone which again uses no cellular data. It’s always fun learning new things. For me that usually happens when I need to! It works out better using the Apple podcast app because I can go back to exactly where I left off. Streaming was always kind of hit or miss.

Went by my office to pick up the mail.

Ashley’s birthday card from Nana came in today. Amen.

I got this very kind note this morning from a friend of mine from Georgetown High School.

Today is Diwali, perhaps the largest of the Hindu holidays. K and I went to eat Indian food to celebrate.

OYB!

I should come in #1 this week in the Duolingo leagues in Español.

Walked 1.31 miles.

Cold, but drier.

Fun chat with Anthony.

Good times at the Patel Brothers shopping center.

These sticks are for a type of Indian dance called a Rask. You click them together with other people in the party.

Worked hard.

OYB!

Fun talk with Anthony. He cracks me up.

Colder and drizzly.

Yesterday I got a message from Mint Mobile that said I was 80% through my 5GB for the month. I’ve had my phone on airplane mode since then. My phone is set up to use wifi for calls so everything seems normal. I didn’t leave the house all day long which is rare for me.

Because of trying to save data, I figured out how to put my favorite podcast on record for later so I don’t have to stream it and use cell phone minutes. It’s easy with Apple Podcasts. This is typical for how I learn something when I need to.

Looked up words I heard that I wasn’t sure about.

Just keep going. By Monday I knew I’d win. Fortunately, I had some competition to keep me going, but after a certain point they always give up, same for me.

Rested. Played Battlefront II and watched some of a new Netflix series called Bodies.

I’ve enjoyed listening to new music while I play Battlefront II.

Worked on getting Kathy’s insurance up to date. It went up in price and for some reason the auto debit didn’t work for it.

OYB!

Made sure everything is going well for my Mom’s trip to the ATL next month.
