While Dick was working at the Visitor Center, I went over to the Huntington Bank and made myself the account manager for Mother's account - I will be getting the statements instead of having them sent to Concord Place. I also arranged for an ATM card for that account - Hooray!! It's so much easier than writing a check to myself every time Mother needs something.
Visited Mother - we had a great conversation. She's relieved about not receiving bank statements - she gets a little agitated every time she gets one because she thinks she's supposed to do something and she doesn't know what to do.
I tried to explain ATM cards to her, but it's going to take a while for that to sink in. We decided that I should get an ATM card for the 5/3 bank also. Hooray!!
I told her about Dylan's spelling test - he was having trouble with the words "purple" and "brown". I told him to just remember that purple ends with an e. His response was "But what about the infamous "brown"?" He keeps us grinning every day.
I met Dick at the Visitor Center at noon and we went to Roma for lunch. It's in a brand new building, and it was very nice. The food was especially good - my meatball sandwich was huge - half of it is still in the refrigerator. Roma would a good place to meet someone for lunch, or to take someone out to dinner. We gave it our stamp of approval. (The Official Okie Dokie).
Picked up the GenFest Test Master DVD at the Camera Shop, went shopping at Sears and bought a small freezer to replace our 30 year old big freezer (which has sprung a leak). Dick also picked out a new griddle to replace the one that has provided breakfasts too numerous to count for our guests.
We are still trying to figure out Whitard's Dr. Seuss cache - we spent some time at Horizon Book Store trying to find specific pictures in 8 different books. We still can't find 4 of the 12 pictures require to figure out the coordinates. It's a challenge. We had a really good time trying!
