Late start to the day and it was a beautiful sunny start of the day. The point and shoot camera is acting up again. I had it checked out a couple of months ago and working ok sort of until last week. Too many of pictures I took as packing up weren't in focus, the screen would go black, and when turn it on ask to set up time zone. Sadly I think it is too sick to fix. And the memory card is hardly used. It is really nice to have handy, smaller than the D5100 and easier to use than phone camera.
Went to the shoe store recommended by Jean at front desk, Harrison's. Great service. As soon as said moved here from California he knew what I was looking for - shoes better suited to weather here than California, ie more water proof and better traction in wet. Tried a couple of different ones and got the first pair and then added some socks that are longer than usual and not yet knee high.
Next stop was auto parts store for winter car equipment, scraper/brush and squeegee. Needed squeegee this morning, lots of water on car. The water drops were kinda pretty on side mirror in reflecting the bright sun. But not so good for seeing things.
Stopped at the Vintage and introduced myself after all the work Betty did to get my application approved.
Got the second important card today - member of Shipley Center for seniors.
Had lunch at the Bear Diner as part of fundraiser for Sequim Warming Center. They don't have much in choice for gluten and dairy free food.
Watching the evening news, the worse part after major fires has happened - mud slides after all the rain that needed earlier to help prevent the fires. Sad.
While watched my programs this evening, repacked a couple of shipped boxes into standard file boxes. Easier to handle and made list of what is in the box. Need to number the boxes and list so can find stuff again. Extended my stay at EconoLodge for another week. The one short term place found yesterday was already leased.
Had phone interview with one of two financial services company recommended. Set up an appointment in Seattle on Friday 19 Jan. Figure out what to do with the extra money from sale of condo. How best to keep it safe and grow and last as long as possible since I seem to be staying around for a while longer.
Heard from my former neighbor that the kitchen has been removed from my old condo.
On that note, close this post.
