Working on the unit for sale

Up and to the Outback to pay for the morning golf. I was under the impression that we would tee off around 8 but instead the first group went off at 9. I had an hour and a half to wait. I went to the coffee table instead of walking since I would be walking 9 holes later. Evelyn went to exercise as usual. I returned home after arranging to ride with another golfer and waited for him to pick me up. I got on line and thought I had logged off when I left. I was wrong. This prevented Evelyn from calling about our prescriptions. She was angry when I came back. I have told her many times how to deal with the problem, but she can’t remember how. I played poorly after a fairly good start (19 after 4 holes) but managed to achieve my normal terrible round with little trouble. We finished the crawfish for lunch and took a nap before going to Harlingen to paint. We took the paint Evelyn had bought at Wal-Mart yesterday and a scraper and wire brush. We worked on the ramp up to the door by tearing up the carpet runner and scraping the paint off the ramp. We painted the ramp, the shed door and the trim around the car port and shed. We also went back to the sales office and re-listed our unit with them at $9,900. They will charge $1,000 to sell it for us but that would be well worth it if it can be sold. The current renters are afraid of a background check the park requires for buying. I think they have something in their past to hide, although they seem very cooperative now. We went across the road to what used to be Country Boy when we stayed there in 1996. Our friends the Pierce’s who are full timers live there every season. They are there again but were not at home, so we left our card and came home for a cold meat sandwich and salad. We received a call from PacifiCare explaining their involvement in the vision care. We will call again tomorrow to see if there is another location closer than Elsa where we have an appointment tomorrow. We stayed in for the evening. We must call tomorrow to pay the other half of our landscaping bill. The place looks much more appealing and the renters agreed to water the grass and plants. They will also welcome any people who might want to look at the house during the craft sale either this Saturday or next.
