Pam called this morning and asked if I am interested in taking a trip to Watkins Glen.  I told her that I have been there so many times that it does not interest me anymore.  We discussed a few other trip ides and  possibilities and decided to MAKE IT HAPPEN.  

Elaine called.  She has been home from her trip to Florida with her sister for a few days.  We agreed to try to get together to do something fun soon, perhaps next week.  I think the local movie theatres opened up sometime this week, so we hope to go to a movie and to OLIVE GARDEN for lunch.  She told me that her best friend, Nancy, found a house to purchase over in the area near FREEDOM CHURCH.  It is a ranch with a garage and a fairly large yrd

 I am all caught up on EVERY episode of THE HANDMAID'S TALE including the first three episodes of Season Four, which debuted on HULU yesterday.  

I started reading this book:  

It is excellent.  I heard about it while reading an article in READERS DIGEST.  

I went to WALMART and picked up some extra groceries in anticipation of Carrie's weekend at home, which was planned to start tomorrow.  However, a few minutes after got home, I got a call from Heritage's nurse CHRISTA TURK who told me that Carrie had an episode of vomiting last night.  We agreed that I will call the home tomorrow morning and find out how she is doing.  

Peg called and said she is feeling pretty good and that she feels stronger.  I mixed up a small batch of chocolate chip cookies in the evening and refrigerated the dough.

SUNDAY, December 11th, 2022 CONNECT CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON

 I got to the church around ten forty a.m.   I asked Lou to let me in to the office area and he did.  I picked up the boxes of cards, list of names and the printed Christmas carols and then I went down to the basement and looked for the "sugars" for the tea.  I found a few.  Then I located the case of bottles of water, but it was heavy, so I located Lou again and he carried it to the kitchen.   Once I got back to the kitchen, I looked for more "sugars" but couldn't find any, so I went to the COFFEE BAR, and they filled a bowl with different types for me.  I got the silverware ready.  I opened up the packaging that held the tablecloths captive (I have had difficulty opening them in the past) so that they would be ready to go.  David and Jan both came at the end of the service.  Jan located the floral displays for the tables, and we started to put the red tablecloths on the tables.  By this time, we had a lot of other helper...

 SUNDAY:  I decided to go to TOPS before going to church, hoping to get some IRISH SODA BREAD.  They had it (right inside the front door) so I got it, and a couple of other items. Church was excellent, the sermon was about HELL!!!   After church I took my groceries home and put the garbage out and changed into jeans before meeting up with Glenda, Elaine and Betty at LaPorts.  They all had corned beef and cabbage, but I had the turkey dinner.  I brought most of it home.  Pam called and wanted me to go to a musical event at a church, but I really wanted to spend the rest of the day at home.  I had a nap.  I scanned some of Peggy's NURSING HOME MINISTRY at Mt. View into her flickr account.  I found a movie: I ACCUSED, based on a true story.     MONDAY:  I had my chiropractic appointment this morning.  I did some jobs around the house until it was time to go to the Y for my class.  It went very well. ...

 SUNDAY:  I got up a bit earlier than usual today because I had things to do to get ready for the COUSINS GATHERING later on here at my house.  Church was very good.  I went to DOLLAR TREE and purchased three bags of ice before going home.  When I got home, I started setting the backyard up with chairs and tables and filled my good cooler with ice and drinks.  Gail arrived first and Peggy and David arrived a few minutes later. Then Mike arrived.  He gave us the sad news that his wife Janie was just diagnosed with breast cancer, after a routine mammogram, a second mammogram and then a biopsy.  He said it was caught very early and Janie seems to be accepting the news pretty well.   David set up his grill in the garage and I brought the meat out.  He seemed disappointed that I only provided FOUR (very large) hot Italian sausage.  I suggested we cut them in half, but he did not seem to want to do that.  He cooked both the hot ...
