First of all I want to wish my wonderful and loving wife a happy birthday. It was a mixed day of things to do and get done. We started by stripping the spare bedroom so we could get it cleaned up. I started to change the ceiling fan when it was time to drop Cheri off at the pool and for me to take Grandma for her doctor appointment. After I got Grandma home I stopped by Norm and Marlene’s to wait for Cheri, didn’t have to wait long as Mary, Marlene, and Cheri were coming up the street. We sat and visited for a while and made plans for the six of us to go to Lakeland for a late lunch or early dinner at Harry’s Seafood Bar & Grill. It is famous for its New Orleans style cooking. Norm and Marlene had to return a new TV that didn’t have any sound, so they are going to meet Mike, Mary, Cheri and me at 3:30 pm to celebrate Cheri’s birthday. Early afternoon we went to the auction house to have them come and pick up our old entertainment center and computer desk put it on their auction next week. We also stopped to get insurance on the van and motorcycle, both are due within a few days. Grandma has turned the van over to us as she has decided not to renew her driver license and we have to have insurance in our name before we can get van transferred into our names. The motorcycle insurance was due on the 13th so we got it along with the van insurance. We did find out that insurance is very expensive in Florida. The motorcycle insurance in South Dakota was $322.00 and the same policy in Florida was going to be over $900.00. We did get it with the car insurance for just over $400.00. Mike and Mary picked us up at 2:45 pm and we headed to Lakeland to meet Norm and Marlene at Harry’s. The food was excellent and I think it was the best meal we have had since we have been in Florida. We all put it on the top of our list of places to go back to. We got back home around 5:00 pm and Cheri and I continued working in the spare bedroom. By 7:00 pm we had everything done except making the bed and hanging some pictures and whatever else Cheri has planned on doing.
