We have a Cullligan Reverse Osmosis (RO) system in the kitchen and we had it checked out by Culligan not too long after we moved into the house. According to the paperwork we have from the original home owners, a new system was installed in the mid-90's. The serviceman from Culligan said he could put a new RO system in for about $600 and to replace the filters (which are proprietary) it would be $300! We decided to use the old RO system for a while.
Well, the "for a while" was up this month. Last week Mike ordered a new RO system from Air, Water & Ice for just under $200 (a much better price) and this system has a pump that that increases the water pressure for the ice maker in the refrigerator and water dispenser (the old Culligan system didn't have a pump). Mike installed our new RO system and the water tastes great and it's nice to have the increased water pressure for the refrigerator.
This last Sunday we met Christine, Nancy and Bill at J.P. Matty's here in Sebastian for breakfast and caught up with each other's news. It had been about 2 months since we last got together.
Monday Mike and I went to our doctor's office for our follow-up appointment after our blood work.. While we were at the doctor's office, the thunderstorms that were forecast for the area arrived and did it ever rain! We had 3" of rain that day!!
Tuesday the 24th was my birthday and we went to Mulligan's here in Sebastian to celebrate. Our real estate agent Jeanne had given us a $30 gift card for Mulligan's and we hadn't used

Taking a break from painting
After we painted the living room, dining room, entry way and family room/kitchen, we decided to take a break from painting before starting on the office and the 3 bedrooms.
The last couple of weeks we've just been busy with normal everyday domestic stuff. Last week we had dinner at the Ay! Jalisco Mexican Café here in Sebastian. We ordered the Queso Dip and decided to try their beef and chicken combination Fajitas for two. The fajitas were pretty good, however they weren't sizzling on the skillet when they were served. We really miss our favorite Mexican restaurant Mexican Connection in Dothan!
Last week our doctor's office had a patient appreciation pizza lunch at one of the pavilions at Riverview Park here in Sebastian. Mike and I went and met some of the medical staff and Dr. Cheryl Winchell. We have only had blood work done and haven't seen Dr. Winchell yet. We sat with a nice couple from Fellsmere and visited while we ate lunch. The husband is retired but works sometimes as house painter and gave us some good information about painting the stucco on our house (next year we plan to paint the outside of our house).
Today we drove down to the Humane Society's adoption center where they were having a sale on items they had brought in from their thrift stores in Sebastian and Vero Beach. I bought a few books at the sale and then we went into the adoption center and looked at the
