Doesn't seem possible that a whole week has passed since we moved into the condo but sure enough, today is most certainly Saturday and that is our milestone.
So far we haven't been able to bike or fish or sit on the beach due to pretty cool (read COLD) weather. And the winds haven't helped either - 20 and 25 MPH winds that make sure we wear our fleece jackets. In the meantime, we've been able to make new friends here at Phoenix VII as well as renew old haunts. Been fun. Plus an introduction to Wally Ball (an extremely popular mid west work out) which I'm now hooked on MWF, Tai Chi on Tuesday/Thursday, Bingo on Tuesday evening - plus a whole lot other activities but suffice to say, there is never a dull minute if you wish to stay active.
Speaking of 'dull minutes', yesterday I was playing Wally Ball when T came down to watch. At the end of that set, she asked if I had a key to the condo - nope, how come? says I. Seems there is a setting on the front door that will lock it but when you turn the inside knob it unlocks. HOWEVER, if you turn the do-dad to lock it, you can open the door from the inside but IT STAYS LOCKED. Usually that isn't a problem but in our case, we didn't rent from the Condo Association but rather through our own rental agency, the Condo Association is not allowed to open the door (even though they have a grand master key). So we had to call our real estate office and they had to bring another key over (about 8 miles) and they were not pleased at all. Valuable lesson learned. Will have to learn to secure the door another way I guess.
Will see if I can't get some photos of the condo today so everyone can see our digs.
I do know, there is something special about Alabama this year - not exactly sure what, but it feels different. Have to watch for that to see if I know what it might be.
