Triond spell check doesn’t recognize every word and that can mean rejection of an article. And Sarah spends the night.

What do you do when Triond’s spell checker does not recognize the correct spelling of a word? I had seven words it didn’t recognize in an article I submitted last night, and the article was rejected for misspelled words. I did have one misspelled word. I left out an o in economy. I submitted it again today so I will see if they reject it again. This has happened to me a few times and it’s a little aggravating but no biggie, although it does put me behind the schedule I wanted to keep. I suppose we have to expect these upsets sometimes. Nothing is perfect including my spelling but I do use spell check.
In my article, “A Future Not a Past”,something happened that I don’t understand. It was printed in duplicate. I’m sure you all saw that. I put a fix on it immediately and it was fixed today. We have all had these small annoying occurrences and that goes with submitting our articles. I enjoy writing for Triond in spite of these mishaps and I plan to continue as long as they will have me. I have no ax to grind.

My granddaughter spent the night with us last night. We are in a one bedroom apartment and I made her bed on the couch in the living room. She had had a long exhausting day so we went to bed a little earlier than usual. Sarah had dozed off when we heard loud voices coming from the deck of the apartment under us. Hoots of laughter and all sorts of noise. I knew the gabble would wake her, so I got up and went to the living room. She was up and thought someone was outside in the hall.
We went out on our deck so she could tell where the noise was coming from. Sarah said she thought I would lean over the deck and ask them to quieten down. I didn’t because I didn’t want to get in a shouting match with unruly neighbors. She was tired, and satisfied nobody was in the hall, we went back to bed and she went right to sleep. Not me because the “boom” “boom” music started and carried on until 5 o’clock this morning. We spoke to management. This young couple have partied hard in the past, but not for several months, Lionel and I don’t mind them partying. In fact, we both enjoy seeing young folks have a good time, but we can’t have them partying till 5 o’clock in the morning. Well, we can occasionally but not often.

Sarah and I went to the pool this morning. It was like having our own private pool in our back yard. We had it all to ourselves. Lionel came out and sat in the shade awhile. Sarah and I swam and floated. She practiced doing her hand stands and I did my exercises. We played hunter and huntee. I got out of the pool first and read my book, “Georgia Boy” by Erskine Caldwell. By this time we were starving and came home to fix a late lunch. The cool water chilled us and we didn’t need air conditioning for the rest of the day, although our lips didn’t turn blue to tell on us. Jeff picked Sarah up on his way home from work. And I sat down in my rocker with a big sigh to relax.

P.S. We missed Bubba. He was working on Tommy’s truck.
