| Beautiful Day |
Today started out in the low 40's and it warmed into the 50's with beautiful blue skies and sun. We didn't have anything on our agenda. Larry had ordered me a programmable digital badge and it arrived the other day so he spent a good part of the morning figuring out how to program it, now that he has everything installed and has figured it out it is actually easy to do. He currently has it scrolling my name and Temple, Tx across the screen, the words are bright blue and it looks really cool, this should get a lot of attention on the dance floor. While he was doing this I worked on my puzzle, I'm trying to get it done before Shirley comes to town.
After lunch Flo was pestering us to go some place so we loaded her in the car to go for a ride. Before leaving the house Larry printed out our Target e-gift card for $70.00. Our first stop was at the UPS Store, we had purchased an item from Amazon that we decided was not going to work the way we had hoped so we needed to return it. Amazon makes this really easy, you simply go to your orders, select the order and indicate why you want to return the item, if it was defective you can return it for free but if you decided you simply don't want the item then you have to pay for the shipping. A label is generated, print it out, stick it on the box and drop the box off at a UPS store. Shortly after the UPS store scans in the shipping label Amazon refunds your money. Some clothing items have free returns for any reason but you have to be careful because some don't. After dropping off our package we went to Target, we didn't find anything we had to have but I told Larry we might want to pick up some hangers. We looked at them and found some we liked but decided to pass on them. We have been buying our wooden hangers at The Home Depot and we wanted the hangers to match. The Home Depot is in the same parking lot as Target so Larry and I walked over to The Home Depot. We found some hangers but they weren't the right color so we left empty handed. After The Home Depot we went home. When we got home Larry went to The Home Depot site and found that they didn't carry the hangers we have any more. We probably will buy the hangers at Target the next time we are there.

The rest of the day we relaxed and watched YouTube videos and the GizWiz show. In the evening we watched the Da Vinci Code. It's still a great movie after all these years. LIFE IS GOOD!!!!
