It was very windy and the surf was up, about as much as it gets around here anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Peter reported today that the bank is waiving an appraisal, relying instead on a Fannie Mae database of home values.  This is a new thing, started in 2017.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I did two standouts today, one at Move to Remove and one at the Mashpee rotary.  I was thoroughly disgusted by the progressives who gave me a ration about borrowing their crummy signs (I ended up taking none, made my own) but guess what, my Republicans were gracious and warm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Go *ing figure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I started the second standout a little before 1:00 with signs that were so ambiguous, the Trumpists liked them.  I was inundated before long.  So, I went home, made a new sign and stood on the opposite side of the Commons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was nice to be outside and though it was pretty blowy, the sun was out and I was quite comfortable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Between standouts, I stopped at RiteAid in Falmouth for bargains.  The store is being converted to a Walgreen&#8217;s and this was, literally, the last day for markdowns, some as much as 70%.  I found a fine 50th birthday card for Bonnie and mailed it at the East Falmouth post office on the way home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ron made me a grilled cheese sandwich and heated up some soup for lunch.  I filled out an online application for the fire department to inspect the smoke alarms at Edgewater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We crashed early; then I remembered that I&#8217;d left my white folding chair at the rotary.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It was a little before 8 pm, so I threw a coat over my pajamas and retrieved the chair; it was still there, five hours later.  That&#8217;s my Republicans, for you!  I love those people.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We signed the P&#038;S yesterday. Closing is March 6.
