Wednesday 3-5-25 Virtual Dancing, Games & Jukebox Project

 

Windy Day

 

We had a gorgeous day with a lot of sunshine. It was still windy but not as windy as yesterday. The high was 72 degrees.

I couple of weeks ago Larry did a paper crafting project with his Cameo. He got a head started on the Easter celebration. He made five different sets of Mr. and Mrs. Rabbit. Each set was a little different. The differences were the pattern in the paper (stripes, butterflies and flowers), the color of paper, different paper (gutter or regular card stock) and buttons on the vest of the men and the brads he used were different colors. They came out super and very cute. He mailed a few of the sets out to family and friends.

I spent the day virtually square dancing. I attended three dances. First was Di Green and Terry McCann's Weekly Plus at 10:00 for an hour. Di and Terry took turns calling five tips to 9 participants. I dressed up for Mardi Gras, which was my Mardi Gras hat, purple blouse, necklaces and jeans. Everyone liked my outfit. I had a super time dancing with friends and to Di and Terry.

Second was Ett McAtee's Weekly C1 at 1:00 for an hour. Ett called four tips to 14 participants. We just danced and had fun. I wore my Mardi Gras outfit. Ett liked the hat. I had fun dancing with friends and to Ett.

Third was Dave Eno's Weekly C1/A2 at 6:00 for an hour and a half. Karin Rabe and Greg Moore helped Dave call the dance. The format was three tips of C1, three tips of A2 and two trivia questions. During each session Karin and Greg called one tip, Dave called one tip and all three called the third tip together. While dancing C1 they had 9 participants and A2 had 12 participants. In between the A2 tips we had a trivia question. Once again I wore my Mardi Gras outfit. 

 

Having fun with friends

 

I did the Daily Challenges of Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Free Cell Adventure of 20 games. I only did 17 of them. I worked on them for 2 hours, 9 minutes and 8 seconds before giving up. I ended up coming in 22nd place in my group. Then I played Angry Birds.

While I dance Larry started working on a new jukebox project. The jukebox he's converting is a Rowe jukebox. He made a plastic plate to assemble the electronics on.

I played Pirate's Plunder on Bounce Arcade. I played two games and earned a silver trophy in both. The first one was the best I fought my enemies twice and won and I got two Jolly Rogers. I had a great time playing Pirate's Plunder.

I played five pinball games. They were the weekly challenge of Transporter, Three Angels, The Champion Pub, JP's Space Cadet and Star Trek the Next Generation. Larry installed Three Angels a few days ago and it is a lot of fun. This morning Larry installed the new color DMD on Star Trek the Next Generation. It looks great.

I worked out with my Wii Fit for an half hour.

I worked on my diamond painting of the Princess.

After my last dance we watched A Single Man on Amazon. It was about a guy trying to move on after the death of his partner. It was very slow moving and was ok. Afterwards I watched  Murdock Mysteries Christmas Special for season 18th. Then I watched the 7th episode of season 12 of Father Brown. I ended up doing 18,000 steps, which put me in 2nd place in my group.
