I've been keeping myself very busy this week. I did some housecleaning and washed the floor. On Tuesday I baked a cake for the town market. Sue takes it there and sells pieces. Everyone seems to like the cake.
Yesterday Bob and Sue looked at Barnes and Noble on the computer for jigsaw puzzles. I found 6 new puzzles to try. They are all very colorful. 4 of them are 500 pieces and 2 are 300 pieces. I like the colorful ones. I really like the cartoonish type but there wasn't any. So I choose some animal ones, one of all kinds of different donuts, and a pretty landscape. I am looking forward to them arriving in the mail.
I do the laundry in my new machine. Bob bought it at Costco. It is rather fancy for being a basic machine. It does a much better job than any machine I had before. The machines are getting better. So I do the laundry for myself and for Bob and Sue. I like to do it. It gives me something to do. But Sue doesn't like me to hang out the big sheets by myself. We disagree on that because I can do it my myself just fine. On days like today, the wash dries very quickly. It is sunny and breezy.
Today for lunch we had really good roast beef sandwiches from Hana Hou. Hana Hou is a small restaurant here in Naalehu. It is the southernmost restaurant in the United States. The person who runs it is one of Bob and Sue's neighbors. She is a very good cook and baker. I like to go there to eat on special occasions.
This afternoon I will read some of my book and work on the jigsaw puzzle. I read lots of books. I like romance novels set in the 19th century. But I read other kinds of books too, like mysteries and autobiographies.
Hi! Sounds like you're having an enviable time. Jigsaw puzzles are definitely fun; I've found some jigsaw puzzle Ipad apps and sometimes do them while watching TV. They're mostly 150 pieces; my favorites are a collection of paintings by famous artists -- Rembrandt, Van Gogh, the Impressionists, etc.

I'm glad to hear from you. I glad somebody else enjoys jigsaw puzzles. More people should use them because they make you think clearer. I'm lucky I had Sue to get me started on these things. Left to myself I probably wouldn't even be living now.
