We did a few things around the coach today and did some relaxing as well. Cathy shortened the shorts I recently bought and took them to the rec. centre to sew them. They have a room with several sewing machines available for use. We just bought the thread.
While Cathy was sewing I stayed outside and watched the shuffleboard games that were going on. There was 22 people enjoying themselves on the courts.
I decided to rearrange the plumbing hook up to get ready for the water softener we ordered. After finishing up Cathy went for the mail and the softeners were here. I bought one for the house as well. I am hoping we can get away from the salt softener. Time will tell. This will be a small future job but will be against my union rules to install on Christmas day or Boxing day. Boxing Day isn't as big a deal down here as it is in Canada, but I have a feeling Cathy will be interested in checking out the deals and perhaps boosting the Texas economy.
The neighbours' building or as they call it here "casita" - pronouned "ca see ta" is coming along nicely. They are installing a metal roof which is coated with an asphalt looking product that makes it looks like tile. There are some plumbing and light fixtures to be added yet.
Back door for the golf cart.
Tonight, instead of happy hour we were invited to the neighbours from New Brunswick (Gil and Ann) for a Christmas Eve Open House. It was a great evening and the usual happy hour friends were there.
This evening Cathy called her brother and sister in law Ian and Gail in Mississauga to wish them and their family a Merry Christmas. They are opening their Christmas presents this evening with their family.
"Merry Christmas"
