Another nice day. The temperature is just right, the humidity is just right, wow, what a place to live.
We have been busy looking high and low for a couch (love seat) and a chair (lounge type so Sue can stretch out and relax). Just when we think we have found what we are after, we check online and discover that it gets lousy reviews, something falls apart, the material doesn't hold up, lousy service, that sort of thing. Sue found a spot on the internet that graded the different companies that make furniture so we tackled it from that direction. Finally, after hours of looking at tiny pictures we thought we had found the perfect set. We got out the trusty tape measure and found that there was no way we would be able to fit it in our small apartment and still be able to open the back door to the patio. Compromise time. We finally figured we could get a love seat that has a lounger in it and skip the big lounge chair. This should work.
We have little spools of thread marking all the corners of end tables and chairs around the floor and figured we would sleep on it for the night and see if we felt the same in the morning. Such challenges for Cruisers Living On Dirt.
We made it to the library in our running around town and have several new movies now. Last night's was pretty awesome, Steven Hawking, Physicist and pure genius. He is working on how the universe started and has proven that it all started from a black hole that compressed all matter into a small ball then exploded, but now he is working on why. I know, this doesn't make much sense but you would have to check out his DVD. He has broken it down to a point where the average Joe (that's me) can sort of understand what he is talking about. Worth watching
.more later..
