Okay, so on the way to O'Wich we make a bet about the road. I think it's not done ~ Carlo thinks it is. Dinner is riding on this bet. Much to my surprise - it was done! A little disappointed in the finished product, but done none the less anything is better than the holes and ruts we had to deal with in the past. So - looks like La Tolteca is my treat later on!

We had nothing planned for this trip which was a good thing since I am so sick. I should've stayed home but I just love going to O'Wich and what difference does it make...sick at home or sick at our home away from home?

Upon our arrival we found we now have a digital meter for our electric. Can't get a land line for the phone, but we can get digital on electricity ~ Whatever! We settled in and warmed up with hot chocolate and Baileys. Yummy!

We swapped out the ugly green recliner for Dad's brown one. It looks much better and there is a lot more space to walk around the furniture. We offered the green recliner to our neighbors who asked if we had a sofa sleeper instead since they didn't need a recliner - "Uh, no - I have a recliner - take it or if your don't want it, we're gonna burn it!" They showed up about an hour later!

I covered three pillows with the same fabric as the valances and we bought a clear plastic table cover and got rid of the ugly green printed one. Now you can see just how beautiful the cedar table is and it's protected. Carlo was very happy the satellite worked - and yes I must admit, I was too. With being sick I was able to snuggle up on the couch and watch General Hospital between my naps.

When I woke up we went to Walgreens for several cold remedies and then to La Tolteca. Once we got back I ended up sleeping for the next 12 + hours. Maybe it was the hot chocolate and Baileys or the Strawberry Margarita or the cold meds - or a combination of all of them, but I slept like a log. I don't usually have a problem sleeping anyway but this time I slept through until morning!
