Time just seems to fly. Here I am getting the house ready to leave for four months and it seems as if I just came back. It will be wonderful to see my girls but I will miss this place. Always things to do-- IF you want.


Today was just exercise, the senior lunch and this evening cards. Our lunch was good. As I've told you, it is only $2.70 but all of our group puts in $3. Today a couple of our girls counted the money, and just as I suspected there are those that put in $1 or just some change. Now isn't it great that a person that cannot afford much can get a good meal? We know the gals that are working the job and they told us that our group is helping to keep it going.We have fun when we are all sitting there and chatting. Knowing we are also helping a good program makes it better. We also bring in canned goods that are given out as prizes when we do bingo one day in the week.


Now tomorrow night we will go to the Moose and have dinner and a drink. Our Moose has really good food at a nice price. They serve lunch everyday. That doesn't seem to be the case up North. I guess it'd because we have so many retired people that with them doing all the work it's a good money maker and nice for those that make use of the place.


With good health this getting old isn't too bad. Keeping busy is the one thing one must do if one can. When I get back in Jan. I'll see where I want to volunteer.I used to do the church thrift shop but since I've had the operation I don't want to handle all the stuff that comes in. Some of it is pretty bad. You wouldn't believe what some will throw into a bag-- should go into a garbage can.


Goodness- where did all these words come from? martha

Hi Martha, I just posted to you under somebody else's post, probably my own.

Still lots of rain but winding down-I hope! It is stalled right now and spinning all around here. Should move again -
