February 4/5, 2025 - Saying Goodbye to Roland and My Computer

 I'm happy to report we're both back to 100% after the sugar cane juice induced stomach issues.  We had another quiet day.  Beach walk, time by the pool (Roland); laundry, reading (me) and lots of Skip Bo.  I ws apparently so devastated that Roland became the King of Skip Bo last night, that I neglected to post.

Today, Roland left early and as I type this is about to land in Denver.  2 flights down, one to go.  Meanwhile, I've been trying to figure out why five keys on my keyboard quit working.  That means I either have to use the on-screen keyboard (PIA) or my phone.  Neither is ideal.

Tomorrow, two friends from Orlando arrive for a long weekend, which should be fun.  If I don't post, please just assume I'm busy having fun and I promise to post Monday, even if I don't have "a"s and "q"s, etc.

A few photos...

If you've played Skip Bo, you know that having all those 12s in your Skip Bo pile means you're going to lose.

He was way too happy  when he won the "winner takes all" game.

The cards were lousy but the sunset was great.

Jeans, shoes and socks.  Going to be about -28 when he lands.

Gordo and Langosta will miss Flaco.

I consoled myself at the spa while the cleaning lady did her thing in my apartment .

It is a very nice spa. Feels good to be called by name and asked "Would you like your usual?"  Although, they only speak Spanish, so my translation could be off, lol.  

After I got beautified, I hit Megatienda, which was large, modern and had good prices.

Roland, so much wine!

That's about $3 for 24 eggs.

Lots of fish.

I bought some fresh eucalyptus 

The keys that aren't highlighted are the ones that don't work.  All ideas appreciated.  Using the screen keyboard is VERY annoying.
