Last night I took my Diphenhydramine and Zopiclona tablets and went to bed at 9:30. I quickly fell asleep, got up once during the night, finally waking/getting up by alarm at 6:30.
Today, Annie James is 3 months old.
At 7:20 I started the process of ordering a Didi. It was
only 3 minutes away and I arrived at Unicentro mall 15 minutes early for 18,000
pesos. I didn’t see Jose near the mall entrance so I walked around the park
across the street for 10 minutes to add more steps to my daily total.
I walked across the street and the mall soon opened and I went
upstairs and took a seat in Parmessano. I was a little concerned because
Jose hadn’t answered any of my texts but he arrived 5 minutes later.
After our usual breakfast, we moved to the food court and I had
the Black pieces in the first game. (Later the computer showed me a combination
I missed on my 10th move which would have given me an early
advantage.) He made a mistake on his 27th move that gave me a bishop
for a pawn then he tried to queen a pawn but I managed to prevent it and he
resigned on the 41st move.
It was now 11:30 and I commented I hope the next game isn’t
any longer than this one.
I had the White pieces and got an attack against his king.
By the 21st move I was up 3 pawns and his king had no pawn cover – then
I took another pawn and blundered my queen. ☹
It was only 12:40pm when we said goodbye and I ordered a
Didi to take me to Viva Envigado for 25,100 pesos. I went up to Pergamino where
I had their granola, yogurt and acai berry bowl with banana and strawberry slices.
I paid the epm bill in Exito, recycled a plastic pill
bottle then took a seat in Urbania. There is a young waiter who insists
on speaking English and you can almost see the wheels turning in his head as he
asks me questions that I’ve already answered. 😊
I left at 3:45 and had to wait a few minutes for a taxi to
take me to Eduardo Madrid Panaderia. I requested an order of 16 English
muffins but they already had a box of 8 so I bought those for 20mil. I stopped
in Ara on the way back to the apt and bought a bag of sugar and a bag of
milk.
I resigned my game vs Troyclough, lowering my rating to
1517. ☹ I blundered a knight to him
early and wasn’t able to recover.
Teresa informed me she wants to have lunch tomorrow in the
very Colombian Restaurante La gloria de Gloria which is in Envigado just
down the hill from Gloria’s Antica Pizza.
I watched the end of the Seahawks vs Colts game where there
were 60- and 54-yard field goals in the last minute of play.
I ordered 4 bottles of Swanson Calendula Flower capsules
from Amazon to arrive in Florida this Friday, December 19th.
I forgot to mention that Expat, one of my readers, pointed
out that Diner’s Club is clearly shown on the Davivienda ATM I included so
hopefully my card will work when it arrives.
According to my step counter I walked 4,544 steps today; not
sure how I got that many steps in.
FUNNY
