My neighbor Steve Williford, one of the directors for the soap The Young and the Restless, is back in Manhattan for a brief visit, and he was a huge help yesterday. Amazon Fresh delivered a big grocery order, and the jerk delivery person, unlike the ones before, left seven bags of groceries sitting somewhere rather than bring them up and leave them at my door.

First of all, I had to find the damned delivery since Amazon sent me an email telling me my order was "successfully delivered." When I got to the first floor, Steve was in the loibby, and he helped me find the delivery, which the jerk had left not in the lobby but in the hall near the front door. He then carried every bag to the elevator for me, and when I rode up to three, he took the stairs and carried every bag to my door.

Steve sounds like a very nice man, and a good neighbor.

The tire pressure sensors indicated last light that they were low, so I went yo the dealer's service shop (after calling to fine out what to do). They said bring it in and they'd fill the tires...and they did!

Les Schwab will do that for you anytime-for free!

The temperature is supposed to drop into the 30’s tonight. Very interesting considering that last Sunday it was 88 degrees!

I have an appointment at the orthopedic clinic next Wednesday.

I didn't know that. The dealer who's on the west side of Olympia filled my tires for free, but there's a Les Schwab just a couple of blocks from my house. I'll try them next time.

When I was at the dealer, they told me that that might very been a contributing factor for the drop in the tire pressure.

Tonight's performance went quite well!

Tomorrow is our second matinee, and my mom and a couple of her friends are going to see the show.

George · « **Reply #189 on:** October 22, 2022, 11:56:05 PM »

After that, we're going out to eat at a restaurant in Centralia called Country Cousin.

I hope it is a good show, or they may leave at intermission and go to the Red Wind.

Of course, the Lucky Eagle would be closer.

They might leave early, but they specifically want to go to Country Cousin.

I’ve never heard of it. Have you eaten there before?

George · « **Reply #194 on:** October 23, 2022, 12:05:08 AM »

It's only a couple of miles from the theater.

TCB · « **Reply #195 on:** October 23, 2022, 12:06:16 AM »

I was just kidding about the casinos.

Yes, but the only other time I went was when my mom and her friends came to see me in Mamma Mia!.

If County Cousin wasn't so close, they probably WOULD go to a casino!

And you liked it?

George · « **Reply #199 on:** October 23, 2022, 12:09:20 AM »

I did. I don't remember what I had, but my mom and her friends really liked what they all had, which is why they want to go back!

Gratuitous Post #200!!

The menu sounds good. I think I would have the Turkey dinner or the pot roast.

TCB · « **Reply #202 on:** October 23, 2022, 12:19:13 AM »

I capitalized the “T” in Turkey, because it is a Tom Turkey!

Country Cousin does have quite a variety of options.

And breakfast served any time.
