September 5-6

Friday September 5

We stayed home all day.

I haven’t heard from the guy who took a look at the roof. He was supposed to call my friend but he didn’t.

Jayne and I went to the mall. She bought some cheap pictures (prints) that were in frames. It’s cheaper buying print pictures than it is to buy just the frames. What Jayne will do is paint over the picture or she might paint on canvas and stick it in the frame. For example, a picture framed cost about $6, whereas buying a specially made frame cost $10. What she bought also included a frame within a frame and a Plexiglas covering.


Saturday September 6

Today went to the mall myself. Yesterday when I went to the ATM machine it was out of money. I was told it would be about 30 minutes before it would be operating. So, that is why I went back today.

On the way to the mall, the bus took a turn off the road that leads to the mall. I just thought it was by passing some problems up the road, so I stayed on the bus. When I thought I should get off, I knew I would have a long way to walk so I stayed on. The bus ended up in another town that I’ve never been to before (Santa Maria). In the town there was some sort of parade. What I had to do is take a taxi to where I wanted to go, which cost me $2.50. It took about an hour longer than it should had, had the bus went directly to where it was suppose to go. (Yes, I was on the right bus but why it went to another town I don’t know. That’s why many people got off the bus when it first made it a turn off where it should go.)
