Bonnie: Not too much going on today. Bob helped to fix a water problem and I played with Reni at the park. I did some wash and we went to Walmart. We had pizza for dinner and that was about it.It was a nice, low-key kind of a day. One of the best things was that I heard from one of my grand-daughters that she is now Student Body President. What awesome news!
Bob: As Bonnie said, a low-key day. Almost like a day of fishing, but without a pole!! Did manage a one hour bike ride this morning and avoided the steep hills. Got the oil and filter so I could change it on the truck. Stopped off at a Chevrolet dealer before I changed the oil to ask him about the message on the truck's information system that says "Oil has 53% life remaining". He explained to me that there are many, many sensors on the newer vehicles that contribute information so you will know when to change the oil. He said to keep driving and wait till it says "change the oil". However, he cautioned, that I should check the oil level occasionally. Already did that this morning and it is at the "full" mark. So I don't have to change oil for a while yet. I did change it in Canada, but way too soon as there was over 50% life still remaining.
Another tender mercy came our way today. Sunday I emailed Patsy Jakob, Temiskaming Branch President's wife, and asked her if they had received any snow. She wrote back today and said they had not, but she needed to share something with us. She said that the other night she, Karl, Mason and Summer were sitting in the living room when, Daisy, their pet dog, began to bark. She said that the first thing Summer said was, "it's Bon (not misspelled) and Bonnie". Patsy said the kids still ask why we don't stop anymore. Made both Bonnie and I feel a little sad that we don't see them like we used to.
