SATURDAY, January 29th, 2022 FREEDOM CONFERENCE and Sunday, the 30th

 It was a long day.  I arrived at the church a half hour early in order to help Peggy finish setting breakfast up.  A continental buffet breakfast was offered. Yogurt, fruit and granola to make parfaits, and cinnamon pastries.  I had brought some of my lactose free yogurt, so I was able to prepare myself a parfait.  The morning sessions went well and then we were treated to a pizza (from Sub-Delicious) and salad lunch.  Then we moved to the large sanctuary for the afternoon sessions. 



Shirts were given away, but they were the green ones and I already have a green one.  

When I got home, I shoveled the front sidewalk a bit. 


SUNDAY January 30th, 2022

I met up with Jan at church and we managed to fit five of us in our row of seats, with some social distancing Glenda, Ann, Jan, me and Betty.   I was able to introduce Jan to Marsha and Ursula today.  After church, Betty and I met up at Burger King for lunch.  I am disappointed that she is not interested in using coupons.  I had one that would have gotten us two chicken sandwiches and two small fries for five dollars, but she had already ordered her chicken sandwich and medium fries which she paid over eight dollars.  I don't understand this, but it is kind of like Betty to be this way.  

Then we went to Prudden and Kandt for the calling hours for Pat Tomaino.   As I pulled in, Peggy and David pulled in behind me and Peg indicated that David wanted to talk to me for a minute.  He has some ideas about my purchase of a car.  

After calling hours, I got gas and went home, where I sorted through some items on a shelf under my microwave while watching LONGMIRE, and read over the estimate and contract for the generator I might purchase.  I have a few questions, so I emailed Bill Yaw with them.

SUNDAY, December 11th, 2022 CONNECT CHRISTMAS LUNCHEON

Image
 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...

Week of Sunday, March 17th through Saturday, March 23rd, 2023

 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. ...

Week Starting Sunday February 25th, 2024

 SUNDAY:  I started feeling kind of shaky and week during worship at church this morning.  So, I had to tell Marlene that I needed to go home after church instead of going to North Tonawanda with her.  Our plans had been to go to Joey's Place for lunch and then to the Riviera Theatre for the free organ concert by Camden Church.  I stopped at Mark's and got a slice of pizza to take home for my lunch.  It was not very good; I am sure it was left over from yesterday.  I found an episode of BROKENWOOD MYSTERIES on Hoopla and watched most of one episode until I started dozing off on the couch.  I spent the rest of the day resting at home, but I started working on planning for Thursday mornings FREEDOM GROUP, which I will be facilitating.   MONDAY:  I had my chiropractic appointment and then went to the Y where I walked 15 minutes and then used the recumbent bike for five minutes. Then I returned a bottle of cranberry juice to Aldi and go...
