It was a Laid-back week. I got some good rides in. I’m close to meeting my goals. I did a little work on the WiFi for our clubhouse. I went with Danita to visit Bud Friday. He was getting his carpet cleaned. We had to move furniture out of the way. The carpet came out looking very good. I gave blood before Church this morning. I wasn’t able to give blood while I was on Plavix, and got out of the habit. This was right at the Church. They took me as a walk-in right away.

The Emile Fischer vase was auctioned off this week. I listed it for shipping in the US only. A guy from Hungary told me he wanted it and asked my permission to bid. We traded jokes about paying import taxes on a vase that was made in Hungary, but had made its way to the US. I told him I thought shipping would be too expensive, but he could bid if he wanted. (I set this up so the buyer pays shipping.) He was the only bidder, and bought the vase for $1. He hasn’t paid his $1 yet. I wrote to him, but haven’t heard back. He hasn’t said, but I think $100 to $400 is a lot of money for shipping the vase.

After a week of chilling, we enjoyed the “Chill and Grill” party at the clubhouse Friday.

I hope this finds everybody doing well.
