Anne's Visit: Saturday

Anne needed to log in to her work account but with Sallie having dial-up and me having a Mac we decided to try the library on Saturday morning after some shopping at the farmers market. I tasted the chicken curry again at the new Indian tent. They had a tandoori oven there baking naan. So good!

I recruited Sallie to help me figure out why my new Dyson ball wasn't working so we left Anne with my library card at the computer and went back to my house. I supplied a small screwdriver and Sallie did the rest in getting my vacuum working. She even vacuumed the living room! Thanks, Sallie! I tried to have her change my toilet seat but she discovered the metal screws were rusted and she couldn't move them. Oh, well. I guess that's what the maintenance guy is for. I forgot to have her install my new showerhead. Maybe if I feed her she'll come over again soon.

We picked up Anne (who was unable to log in after all and spent the time picking out paperbacks to buy) and drove up to the Oakland Zoo and ate our picnic leftovers in the car. We got to see most all of the animals; even the warthogs were out and about. I was making stir-fry for dinner so we headed home to my newly cleaned carpets. Sallie napped while Anne and I did some Facebooking. After dinner Sallie read while Anne and I created a tune on Garage Band. It was nice to have a relaxing evening before our road trip north.
