After a leisurely morning of coffee and TV news, I made my way over to the Suncoast about 11:30. Helen enjoys watching "Desperate Housewives" from noon to 2 p.m., so that's a good time for me to run errands or hit the nearby casinos.
So between 11:30 and 3 p.m., I played some blackjack at a $5 table and was able to grind out an $80 profit. No big dramatic hands, no huge double downs, just $5-10 wins here and there. When I got up near $100, I decided not to press my luck and walk with the $80 profit.
On my way out, I checked the casino's movie theater, since Helen and I plan to see "Taken" there next Tuesday. Every Tuesday they offer $3 tickets to anyone over 60 who has a club card. We'll be taking advantage of this senior citizen benefit next week....woohoo for being Old!!
While I was gone, in addition to watching the wackiness along Wisteria Lane, Helen found time to clean the bathroom and catch up on her emails.
Since we had such a huge dinner last night, we both agreed to go with salads tonight. I whipped up a couple of hefty salads with organic mixed greens, roma tomatoes, red onions, Greek feta cheese and mushrooms. Now we're just relaxing, watching "Judge Judy" and reading a little bit. In a while, I'll make us a bowl of popcorn and we'll enjoy some TV until we're barely concious, or until about 9 o'clock ...then tomorrow the adventure will continue.
