Boring day.

 Joan and I watched a few videos by Geoffrey Baer about different parts of Chicago. We just realized we had missed so many interesting places in that city when we lived nearby. It's a great city to visit.

About an hour after that, we went to Carrefour to buy some much-needed new socks. She has plenty of socks but they don't fit like they used to. We found 3 pairs that she liked and I bought them, which cost 30 PLN($7)

The weather has not changed, still cold, but Joan wanted out of the flat. Sometimes she has "cabin fever" and just needs a change of scenery.

Our young cousin Preston Saia is off to a good start at Merrillville High School.
One new wrinkle is 6-foot-7 senior Preston Saia, who spent the last two years at Bosco Institute. Patton believes Saia is the best shooter Merrillville’s had since 2017 graduate Jonah Jackson, who went on to play at Drake.
“I think Preston’s maybe even a little better shooter than Jonah,” Patton said. “His size, he can get a shot off whenever he wants. He’s a great teammate. We’re happy to have him.”

Joan i ja obejrzeli艣my kilka film贸w Geoffreya Baera o r贸偶nych cz臋艣ciach Chicago. W艂a艣nie zdali艣my sobie spraw臋, 偶e przegapili艣my tak wiele interesuj膮cych miejsc w tym mie艣cie, kiedy mieszkali艣my w pobli偶u. To wspania艂e miasto do odwiedzenia.

Jak膮艣 godzin臋 p贸藕niej poszli艣my do Carrefoura, by kupi膰 nowe, bardzo potrzebne skarpetki. Ma mn贸stwo skarpetek, ale nie pasuj膮 ju偶 tak jak kiedy艣. Znale藕li艣my 3 pary, kt贸re jej si臋 podoba艂y i kupi艂em je, co kosztowa艂o 30 PLN (7 USD)

Pogoda si臋 nie zmieni艂a, nadal jest zimno, ale Joan chcia艂a wyj艣膰 z mieszkania. Czasami ma "gor膮czk臋 domow膮" i po prostu potrzebuje zmiany scenerii.

Nasz m艂ody kuzyn Preston Saia ma za sob膮 dobry start w Merrillville High School.

Jednym z nowych graczy jest mierz膮cy 6 st贸p i 7 cm senior Preston Saia, kt贸ry ostatnie dwa lata sp臋dzi艂 w Bosco Institute. Trener Bo Patton uwa偶a, 偶e Saia jest najlepszym strzelcem Merrillville od czasu uko艅czenia szko艂y w 2017 roku przez Jonaha Jacksona, kt贸ry gra艂 w Drake.

"My艣l臋, 偶e Preston jest mo偶e nawet troch臋 lepszym strzelcem ni偶 Jonah" - powiedzia艂 Patton. "Dzi臋ki swoim rozmiarom mo偶e odda膰 strza艂, kiedy tylko chce. Jest 艣wietnym koleg膮 z dru偶yny. Cieszymy si臋, 偶e go mamy".
