Jasmine's Got It Right

Jasmine found the perfect way to spend the day today - curled up in a chair asleep. Another rainy, slow day here. And it looks like another one lined up for tomorrow.

One of our antique VCRs stopped receiving signals from the remote control the other day. Which is no biggie except the time got out of synch and the only way to access the menu to correct that is with the remote. I knew the remote was sending out signals because I could control other JVC VCRs in the house. So I took the VCR apart, wiggled some stuff around, and it started working! Put it back together and called it a day!

Lucie and Ashleigh went with some friends to Dover this evening (about an hour away). Their phones were eligible for a free upgrade so they got new ones. Pretty nice ones. While they were down there, Elliott and I watched the Celtics game. I pumped the sound through the stereo and it felt like we were there in the Garden. The Celtics got behind by 28 at one point but cut it to 4 and wound up losing by 5. But it was exciting. Then the Red Sox were in NYC playing the Yankees and as I write this, they are ahead 6-4, bottom of the 8th, Papelbon pitching. Should be a win...

If the field dries out, Ashleigh should have a lacrosse game tomorrow afternoon.
