Today was warm with the high in the low 70s and a strong wind out of the south. Today we virtual square danced with lots of people from outside the US, most of them had temperatures that were minus degrees with strong winds and snow. I'm so glad that we live in Central Texas. Of course the Australians were happy, for them it is summer.
We started the day out going to town to do a couple of errands. We're getting ready to do a home project. Our second bath has a marble surround on the tub and the marble on one side is pulling away from the wall. Larry has an idea on how to repair it but he needed some supplies. He ordered an adhesive from Amazon and it's suppose to be here tomorrow but he needed a couple of things from the Home Depot. Afterwards we went next door to Michael's to buy some small rope, he wanted to use it to finish up the edges of his clock. While there he looked at the cardstock paper. He didn't find any paper he wanted. But we didn't leave empty handed we bought some rope to add to his projects.

We attended two virtual dances. The first one was Joachim Ruhenbeck's Bi-Monthly A1/A2 at 12:30 for two hours with a half hour break in between each session. The A1 session had 42 participants and the A2 session had 39 participants. Joachim called five tips for the A1 and four tips for the A2. While I danced the A1 session Larry worked on his clock project. During the A2 session Joachim worked on the center part on Spin the Windmill. We had a super afternoon dancing to Joachim.
The second one was Daryl Murphy's Weekly A2/C1 at 5:45 for two hours with a fifteen minute break in between each session. The A2 session had 12 participants and the C1 session had 10. Daryl called four A2 tips and three C1 tips. The last tip of each session Daryl called full square material. We had a small group of dancers but we had a great time.
In between the dances we watched YouTube videos. I played games on the computer. I did the Daily Challenges and Event: Easy Street of 30 games. It took me 1 hour, 17 minutes and 50 seconds, which put me in 20th place in my group.
After Daryl's dance we watched a documentary called True Appaloosa, it was about horse breeder Scott Engstrom, she has been trying to prove that the Appaloosa horse came from Asia and not Spain. She traveled to Kyrgyzstan to find the truth. It was a good. Afterwards I watched two movies. The first one was The Silence on Acorn, which was about a detective who was assigned to a desk job after a shooting and solves an old case of a beautiful woman and finds out the woman was his mother. It was an ok movie. The second one was Bliss on Amazon, which was about a man whose life is a mess and meets a beautiful woman who tries to convince him he is living in a simulation. It was weird movie because it goes from realty to fantasy. I ended up doing 27,500 steps, which put me in fourth place in my group.
