Today we were a little more active. We went to the beach, where we met Karen for lunch. We furnished the sandwiches this time; we got a new kind of pizza sandwich, also with lettuce, tomato and pickles on it. It was quite different; I had trouble with mine when the chicken pieces kept falling out! But it was a good sandwich, and we had sodas with the sandwiches. It was a beautiful day, but the wind was blowing so hard I didn't dare go for the walk I wanted, because I was just over the earache I have had for more than a week. At home again we talked to Brittany, and she doesn't work at the Carlsbad golf course again until Sunday, so she is going to visit in the L.A. area and also go to Cal. State at Fullerton to check on her registration in January, to make sure it's all set up. She'll be back here Saturday night.
