1967 Had planned on going to the circus with Melanie, but it was sold out so we went to see A Funny Thing Happened to Me on the Way to the Forum at the Gopher. Theater was almost full, and we ended up in the front row next to the speakers. The car was blocked in so we had to wait 30 minutes to get out. Ran into Steve and Nancy Stone at Bridgeman's.
1975 Richfield St Bank (Minnesota) sent two tickets to the Minneapolis Auto Show! Man came from Auckland and offered us $80 for our dining set.
1977 Last year's account for Stationery had $1200 missing. I figured out that the office had forgotten to type page 2. Had to make up a page to please auditors. Watched first episode of Welcome Back Kotter. Gail bought a miniature poodle ($30) that I named Beethoven, so I can say "Roll Over B...".
1981 T - Schauer upset because his system blew up last night due to something that Doug had transferred on Tim's word without testing it. Began a Bill Cosby portrait as birthday gift for Gail.
1982 W - Gave Tom the E Award (little cup with "E" for Jerry Engstrom who is head user for MiscMed) since he has to re-write pending messages to replace the number with a name. A while back I had to change them from name to number!
1985 Su - First real storm of the winter - 14.7". Played Monopoly®. Packed first big box of Ne's stuff and sorted through the paperbacks.
1988 Gail was bringing dogs to get a haircut and Monte jumped out of the rear window (in Manurewa) - probably trying to get from back seat to front to be with Gail. Luckily Gail saw him in the mirror and he wasn't hurt. Postcard from Woody who describes a Singapore sling as $9 beer plus $5 shit.
1999 W - Harlan and Nancy did Awhitu and Karioitahi. Harlan and I were up until midnight talking.
2003 Envelope from Hoffsis filled with Easter Seals and nothing else.
2005 Graeme stopped by to get paid for the deck and I made him lunch. I spent the day removing rust from the van (going as far to remove plastic parts and the side door).
2006 Deanna's (wooden water tank being relined for $4000) where we discussed her website needs. Eastern Beach for TP at Colleen's new place. Listened to the Twins first spring season game and Tori Hunter hit a homer on the first pitch to him after missing the second half of last year.
2022 Th - 70 minute walk along beach. For about six months I have notice green doggie poo bags chucked into the bushes in front of the village and today I spotted the sign. We began watching this year's AFL matches.
2023 F - Biked to 34OC for the usual yardwork. Watched Warriors 30 - Knights 12, Breakers 95 - Kings 88 in first championship game and NZ over Argentina 22- 12 in LA 7's championship game.
