For the record, we have officially changed “Matinee Monday” to “Theater Tuesday” to accommodate our busy schedules. “Trash Sunday,” “Meatless Monday,” and “Sunset Thursdays” remain on the calendar, although beach picnics have been limited by red tide issues. We do plan to see the movie, “Champions” with Woody Harrelson this afternoon, after last week’s disruptions due to visitors. Everything is now back on a routine that should continue throughout April. This includes mornings at the dog park, daily 5k runs, Aqua-fit, tap classes, chair yoga, date night, and bridge. We were even back to watching Lost last night, having finally reached the last season. I’m anxious to watch new episodes of Ted Lasso, Succession, and the Reluctant Traveler, rather than being totally “lost in Lost,” trying to keep up with flashbacks and fast forwards. We’ve been tied up in this show for months that seems like forever.
Today is our “Limoges Anniversary,” dating back to a Bloomington, Indiana picnic when I presented my wife with her very first porcelain Limoges Box twenty-four years ago. Her collection has grown to well over 325 boxes throughout the years. I’m giving her Alice, from Alice in Wonderland, tying in with our recent trip to Disney World. The Disney characters are her favorite, but they are also the most expensive. This one I found on E-Bay, as I’ve tried to continue adding to the collection without breaking the retirement budget. She’ll be mildly disappointed that it’s manufactured by Dubarry rather than Artoria, but it will still be a pleasant surprise. It will contain the poem from Post #2290.
Baseball season officially begins on Thursday and the Final Four has been determined for both the men and women. It’s time to “Spring” from basketball to baseball. Egypt is also right around the corner, so I’m excited to finally see the pyramids. It’s been a trip long delayed by Covid and other factors. I’ve been watching some features on ancient Egypt on the History Channel in anticipation. Spring has sprung, with a lot to look forward to in the next few months. This afternoon, we’ll start with “Theater Tuesday.”
