Friday 2-28-25 End of the Month, Jukebox Project, Dancing with Ett & More

 

Sunny Day

 

We had a sunny day with the high of 78 degrees. This was a great way of ending the month of February.

Larry continued working on his jukebox project. Today he worked on installing the new monitor in the red Rock-Ola. This required unwiring and removing everything. He had to modify the plate that holds the electronics. He made a templet. He found out that he didn't have the correct cable. The cables he has were either too long or too short so he had to order one from Amazon. He also needs some screws for the monitor. A gentleman wrote on a review of the monitor that you had to be very careful of the length, if it's too long it will damage the monitor. He said the screw he put in just barely touched the monitor and blew it up. Tomorrow we need to go to the hardware store to buy the correct size screws.    

I spent the day playing games. I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Two Game Tango Mini of 10 games (5 Klondike and 5 Tri Peaks). It took me 35 minutes and 19 seconds to complete, which put me in 19th place in my group. Then I played Angry Birds.

I worked out with the Wii Fit for a half hour and Just Dance for a half hour using three programs, which were Just Dance 2016, Just Dance 2018 and Just Dance 2019. I had a good workout.

I played one game of Pirate's Plunger for a half hour. During the game I got two Jolly Rogers and fought my enemies three times. I was successful in defeating them two times. I earned a silver trophy.

I played nine different games of pinball. They were The Champion Pub, The Godfather, Termination 3, The Theatre of Magic, Big Buck Hunter Pro, NASCAR, Nightmare Before Christmas, Robocop and JP's Space Cadet. I played very well. While playing Theatre of Magic I became Grand Magician (Grand Champion).

In the evening I attended Ett McAtee's Weekly A2 dance at 6:30 for an hour. This was the first Friday Ett had called this week because she was visiting Egypt. Ett called five tips of A2 to 11 participants. We just danced with little cueing. In between the tips we visited with each other. I had a fun time dancing with friends and to Ett. 

 

Dancing with friends

 

After the dance we watched a movie on BritBox called The King's Speech. It was about England's Prince Albert, he must take over the throne as King George VI and he had a speech impediment that he had to overcome. He worked with a therapist to do so. It was a good movie. When Larry went to bed I started to watch the first season again on BritBox. It's a British detective series. I ended up doing 18,000 steps, which put me in 2nd place in my group.
