Nice phone call to get in the middle of breakfast – a fraud alert informing me that my card was getting some unusual activity via the internet (in Great Britain). Three hundred and some for some type of insurance, $1.05 for a handyman something, and another amount in the teens… Wow… After chatting with them, and phoning the card company back to make sure this wasn’t one of those bogus things, it was time to go to the marina for showers and to drop me off at the lounge to charge up my computer batteries and get out of the boat while Wayne worked on some boat chores.

Basically I was a wharf rat for the day. Hanging out at the marina lounge. I charged up my computer batteries and read, decided to see if anyone had Skype turned on & had a hello chat from Ashley (Hi Ashley!) then Steph came online. I didn’t have a terrific signal and couldn’t talk to her via Skype but we did the typing chat thing before I noticed that there was a phone number posted in the lounge that she could call! It was terrific to be able to talk her & touch base. It felt like it’d been forever since we’d talked. Hopefully things will settle down more for her in the near future.

Salmon burgers, salad and fruit for dinner tonight. It's nice to have charged batteries again :)
