Return to volunteering at the hospital

Friday began quite cool and drizzly. I rushed to the hall to look for Bob Garrity, the man who sold me the cart and has all the connections. He was very kind in telling me where to take the tire for a valve replacement, but then in going to his house and getting a spare tire he had. He took me home and left me with the tire. I jacked up the golf cart, took the tire iron from the car and loosened the lug nuts. It was still very uncomfortable, and I had to kneel on the concrete and pull the tire off. I replaced it with the new one and froze my fingers in starting the lug nuts. I quickly tightened them and took the jack back to Jim and the old tire to Garrity. He and his wife had left for somewhere so I didn’t get to pay him. I came home, got the car and left to see if I could get the car inspected. The place is not open on Friday. I also went to Wal-Mart to get some Mylanta and Benedryl. We left some of our home remedies in NC. I had to get home to eat lunch and dress for our afternoon volunteering at the local hospital. We sometimes ride our bicycles since it is less than a mile. We didn’t today. We were united with our serving group, a man from Wisconsin and one from Winnipeg, Manitoba. One of our neighbors has signed up to serve on Fridays too. We want to plan at least one “pad party” per month so we can enjoy snacks and beer on someone’s driveway, called pads in RV parks. We worked until 5 and then returned home for the evening. We finished more leftovers from yesterday’s feast. We also watched a Turner Classic Movie: The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. I think James Stewart won an academy award for his performance. Before dinner, I watched Texas A&M beat Texas. Arkansas also beat LSU, the #1 team of the country. This entire season has been the most weird on record in college football. These are just two examples.
