Monday, February 14, 2022 I Ordered a New Car

 I met up with David at BASIL TOYOTA here in Lockport at ten thirty and we met with Zack, who I had met a few weeks ago when I first stopped there.  I showed him the paperwork for the car I decided on when David and I were at WEST HERR Toyota in Williamsville last week.  They did not have one of those to show me, but a couple of days ago a VENZA came in, and he let David and I test drive it.  It is a beautiful car, in the color I like, but it does not have a navigation system, which I think is important.  Anyways, I gave Zack a five-hundred-dollar deposit and ordered the car I want.  It will take up to three months for it to be delivered.  If, when it comes, I do not like it, I will get my deposit back.  They have plenty of anxious buyers for every new car that comes in.  

I had just enough time to go home and have a snack and change into my exercise clothing and get to the Y in time for SILVER SNEAKERS CLASSIC.  Jan did not make it, but there were more women there than the few other times I went.  Gene (the group leader) looks a lot older without a mask on.  Mask mandates aet most places in Niagara County have been lifted).  He did a few different exercises today and at the end he passed out Valentines Day candy!!!!!

I went home and had lunch and rested in the afternoon.  I called Betty in the evening.  I read a bit in the latest NEWS MAX.  Then I found A RIVER RUNS THROUGH IT  on Netflix.  Betty called and asked if I want to accompany her and Myrna tomorrow to SOLID ROCK for spaghetti.   She will pick me up at 4:20 and then we will go get Myrna.  

A River Runs Through It is a true story taken from the book written by Norman MacLean about his youth in a small town in Montana in the 1920's where he lived with his father, mother and extraverted younger brother.    

This is an excellent movie!

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 helpers.  They put napkins and plasticware at

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 got a refund.  I spent the rest of the day at ho

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.  I stopped at THE DOLLAR TREE to get some cookie mixes.  I spent the rest of the day
