The weather has been perfect for sleeping with the window open. There is a nice chill in the air in the early morning hours until the dogs start barking at the kids walking to the bus stop and I have to close them.
Mother is always cold, it is no wonder the electric bills are a lot higher in the winter than in the summer. I know I will have the same annual discussion of when to turn on the air conditioning. This afternoon it is supposed to reach a high of 93 and it is not the first time we have been in the 90's even in February.
I have been trying to make it to Home Depot but have not been able to do so, it will have to wait until next week.
Barely two weeks into the new cycle and I have already exceeded my Anytime Internet usage allowance. I did not even have a chance to research how to keep videos from playing when I open a webpage.
I believe it was Gypsy who asked what Dish would offer me to renew. They are offering to renew my contract at the same "low rate" as new customers. For the past three months, they have been rolling over my Off-Peak (2 a.m. to 8 a.m.) data to the new cycle and even so I have gone over my limit. I am not going to sweat it, I will probably swing by our newly remodeled library and blog from there.
Good night. May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

I am reluctantly going to watch tonight's game...I do not have a good feeling about it.

No Internet / AARP / San Antonio
It seems that each month I am running out of Internet GB's sooner and sooner and NO, I do not plan on purchasing additional capacity.
Actually, I ran out last week but since we had to go to San Antonio decided I would use the free internet at the hotel that being an AARP member affords me. Surprise, as of March 4th, they did away with special benefits to AARP members like late checkout and free internet. In its place, they instituted an across the board 10 percent discount to seniors.
What is this world coming to? No late checkouts, no free internet, no Spurs games, no Telemundo...looks like I am going to have to find me another hotel chain...grrrrrrrrrrr!!!!
That is unfortunate as I had finally learned how to arrive at this location and to the three doctors offices that we frequent in the Medical Center without getting lost. So I ended up lugging my heavy laptop for nothing. I could have tapped into their Wi-Fi but I was not going to pay for the privilege. Mother is right, I am a "centavera" (Spanish for penny-pincher) jajajajajajaja :D
I finally made it to Target and got to use my $5.00 discount card. We were already packed but I managed to free up some space for huge rolls of paper towels, and other paper products I bought. Schlotzky's is located in this shopping center so off we went for a late lunch only to find a sign saying they had moved to Potranco Road...so goes my luck!
Asked around found Potranco Road but did not find the new location so left San Antonio with a heavy heart and an empty stomach. I usually take stuff for mother to eat but not for myself. Who cares about cholesterol, saturated fat, carbohydrates or high glucose levels when you are in San Antonio?
We stopped at Dairy Queen in Castroville and had a great meal, we even had snow cones for dessert. I have always liked this little town, in particular, its small and well-kept cemetery. Yes, I know I am strange but what do you think finally sold me on Terlingua? Its historic cemetery of course.
Good night, May you all have Terlingua Dreams.

Arrived in Del Rio just in time to catch the Spurs vs Sacramento Kings game last evening. For a while there I could not believe the score, thought perhaps my glucose levels had gone through the roof and I was seeing things. Glad we got our act together and pulled a win!
Though I was very tired, I stayed up to watch the Golden State Warriors drop three in a row...man, I love basketball :)
