Sunday 5-11-25 Happy Mother's Day, Jukebox Project, Games & More

 

Happy Mother's Day

 

Happy Mother's Day to everyone. We had a warm day with the high of 81 degrees with a little wind. 

Larry had ordered a gift for his mother (Shirley) to be delivered to her house in Tucson. He received a couple of e-mails saying the order was delayed and they didn't know when it was going to be delivered. So Larry went on the internet and ordered flowers to her. It was delivered today. It was a small heart shaped box with seven red roses.

In the evening Larry called his mother and wished her a happy Mother's Day. He waited until about 9:00 pm because it was 7:00 pm her time in Tucson. He wanted to catch her at home.

We didn't have anything on our agenda so Larry decided to go back to his jukebox project. He had to refresh his memory on where he was. He remembered that he was working on the LED lights. He had to relearn what he did and reteach his light. 

 

Back to playing with the jukebox

I did the Daily Challenges from yesterday and today in Solitaire and Mahjong. The event was Event: Pyramid Mini of 10 games. It took me 26 minutes and 52 seconds, which put me in 23rd place in my group. Then I played Angry Birds.

Today I started a new pinball weekly challenge. The challenge is Big Bang Bar. Before the challenge started I played last week challenge of Transformers and got a new high score of 42,759,900, which put me in 38th place out of 78 participants. My first high score of Big Bang Bar is 58,276,730, which put me in 8th place so far.

I played four other games. They were Cactus Canyon, Fish Tales, Indianapolis 500 and The Big Lebowski. I didn't get on the board but had fun.

The Big Bang Bar has a cool VR room. It's setup in a home with a couch, big screen television and decor with a guitar, skate boards, puzzles and plants.

I worked out for a half hour on my Wii Fit. Then I played Monster Manor on Bounce Arcade three times. I earned two bronze trophies. I had a super time.

I worked on my diamond painting.

We watched YouTube videos.

In the evening we watch Red Joan on Acorn. It was based on a real story about a British spy, who was working on building the atomic bomb. It was a good movie starring Judi Dench. When Larry went to bed I finished watched the third season of The Chelsea Detective. I ended up doing 13,000 steps.
