Day 335 - Drive through Waldenbuch

We went to church and our favorite Chaplain gave the message.  Chaplain Santiago is amazing.  He told us he would give us 10 seconds to answer his question.  It was a fill in the blank:  The most important thing in  my life is _________________.   He then went on to say, if it's not your relationship with Jesus, then you are not as intimate with Him as you should be.  It was a riveting message.  And one I took to heart.

I don't know why...but I was really tired.  We were going to the BX to look at a TV and possibly buy one.  It's time.  We've been without one for almost a year now and we should be watching our shows on TV and not on the computer. 

Between the scattered flurries and the sun peeking out, we just don't know when the weather is going to break. I asked Ted if we could sit in the car for 15 minutes so I could rest my eyes and get some of that wonderful sunshine on my face.  He agreed.  When someone parked  nearby, we were roused and arranged the car in the event that we needed space for the TV.

We got a few items of candy for Ro's Easter basket and then went to look at TVs.  It turned out they were out of stock of the one we wanted.  Ted really wants an LED TV so he was not as bummed as I was.  However, they did have AppleTV which would allow us to hook up all of the movies and TV series that we've purchased in the past few months and have them available to watch whenever we wanted to see them.  Since they don't always have items in stock (or they sell out), we bought it. 

On the way home, we took surface streets through a little town called Waldenbuch.  It took longer than I thought it would but it was definitely a nice drive. Just the thing for a Sunday afternoon.  I snapped a few photos of Waldenbuch from the car but for some unknown reason, they didn't come out.  This is a town that definitely warrants another trip!  If for no other reason than to walk through the small streets and take photos of the wonderful old buildings.

We then went home and the day was so beautiful and sunny that we opened all of the windows and drew in as much fresh air as we could before we shut them again.  We can't afford to keep them open while the heat is on because how expensive the heat is here. 

I made a late lunch of Ted's favorite, bacon, eggs and Kartofolen Puffers (Potato cakes sort of like hash browns with onions).  Ted busied himself checking out AppleTV and backing up his hard drive so he could install his new hard drive.
