Marion came, then Andrea and her Harrison.
For lunch, I ordered two medium pizzas delivered from Pizza Hut. One was to my taste, thin and crispy with onions, bell peppers and mushrooms. One was to Mary's taste, regular with pineapple, ham and mushrooms. Mine turned out most popular.
Five is too many for rummy, so I chose dominoes.
Turned out to be a mistake. Andrea had to play for Marion as he maintained a ceaseless rambling monologue. Mother was alert by comparison.
We had a good time, but it tired me and Mother. Two rounds were enough.
Deborah picked up Mother. Andrea left with Harrison. Company gone, I called AT&T and was convinced that my modem was dead. So, off to Walmart for a new one. We parked in front of Fusion Cuisine and discovered Rafa in the next car. He was headed for supper alone. Invited us to join him. We declined. No need to break our diet on Chinese.
I bought a pricy modem. Supposed to be twice as fast. But, back at the car, Andrea called to say she had contacted AT&T and got them to admit their line was the problem. After all, Deborah and others were having my problem as well. When I returned home, I had internet! So, I reckon the pricy modem will go back, box unopened.
We ran into Martha from Mary's church. She was in a hurry.

Whew, glad your Internet is back! And now you can also get your money back from the modem.
Andrea looks so happy, and yes, the baby looks quizical and interested in wanting to play. I like Marion's facial expression in the second picture, and the tiffany style lamp that we can see part of in the 3rd.
I'm so glad you are back! I was thinking that you were another xanga casualty! Love the photo of Andrea laughing. Sorry to hear Marion was having a bad day.
Not needing something that is expensive, is a side bonus of life.
I usually call my provider and they can tell me if my line or area is having problems.
Marion looks seriously weakened, alas! Andrea is nice .<
I like the scenery at walmart so typical of our modern times.
