Awake: 5:56 am Temp 55 sleep 6+33 mostly sunny overnight @ Nicktown.

K & I attend 8:00 am Mass & then join the KK for (50) min. After that we exercise for (1.4) hrs @ the community center.

During our KK meeting, it was reported that one of our elite KK members was hospitalized in Indiana, PA over the weekend. So after breakfast, I called John B & found out he had chest discomfort, similar to but different, than his fibrillating heart of a few years ago. He has been taking medicine for this condition for (3) yrs but now, his doctor is changing his medication; he expects to be released tomorrow.

Our Eureka vacuum cleaner canister is too broken for me to fix. I don’t know how it happened but something has to be done. Going thru the yellow pages brings up Krisay’s vacuum sales & repair store in Johnstown; I talk with Ernie, give him our model & serial # & he will check it out & call us tomorrow

Mid afternoon, I visit Chuck & Shirley; he has been curious about our portable GPS unit & would be pleased if I would bring it over for a demonstration; later I call Kathy to assist in this venture as she is more familiar with the portable Garmin (I am more familiar with the Pioneer in the motorhome). Chuck was delighted to see the high tech operation & may even consider buying one for him & Shirley.

Next, K & I pick more wild strawberries; these will not be frozen but used up daily.

Dinner: pork chops, fried noodles & a salad.

We watch the Nat’l news; the O’Reilly Factor &, later, begin watching DVR of “The Royal Family.” During our viewing time, Kathy notices a Skype call on our computer. It’s Nick; he, Eriko, Jerry, Katrina, Zack, & Katie are preparing pizza for dinner @ Nick’s condo. What a treat to see these young people all together, smiling & enjoying each others company. Each of them, more or less, took turns coming over to the camera & microphone to talk with us. Katrina reported that her trip was going well. Zack & Katie smiled at us but did not talk. Nick told us of a possible business trip he might have to the east coast. And Jerry looked quite content to have Katrina to spend time with. Our call lasted (42) min.

We decided to postpone “The Royal Family” until another night.

Lights out: 12:17am
