WEEK of Sunday March 12th through Saturday the 18th of March, 2023

SUNDAY: Church was great this morning.  After church, Marlene and I went to APPLEBEE'S for lunch.  We had the two for $26 which consisted of a huge salad, a small steak, mashed potatoes and broccoli.  It was very good even though the mashed potatoes were cold.  We discussed our upcoming trip to Ohio.  Marlene is afraid it is going to be too cold.  

MONDAY:  I took my car to BASIL TOYOTA this morning where they did a NYS Inspection and put some sort of "end of winter' additive into the gas tank.  Before going home, I picked up a sub at SUBWAY and I went to Niagara Produce to get bananas, but I ended up getting a small ham, potatoes, carrots and cabbage, eggs and maybe a couple of other items.  When I got home, I had lunch and got ready for my dermatologist appointment.  A HEARTS and HAND volunteer, PAUL, picked me up and took me to Clarence.  That appointment went well, with a few "zaps" and a new script for something to work on my fungal infection.

When I got home, I watched more of LUTHER.  In the evening, Myrna called, and we talked for close to an hour.  The agency that provides home care for here (under the program whereby family members can work and get paid) is giving her a hard time.


TUESDAY:  When I got up (early) after a very poor night's sleep I decided to stay home instead of going first to the Y and then to my Life Group.  It was snowing and blowing, and I was concerned that the roads might be bad.  Shortly before ten a.m., it cleared up, but at that time I was still in my pajamas and could not get to the Life Group in time.  I got caught up on a few things around the house, including calling one of my credit companies and redeeming some of my accumulated rewards points.  Over $87 will be deposited into my Citizens checking account. YAY!!!!!  In the evening, I called Leslie and we talked for a half an hour or so.  

WEDNESDAY 3/15:  I went to the Y and walked and used the recumbent bike for about forty minutes, and then picked up lunch at Kentucky Fried Chicken and then went out to meet up with Carrie and Sue for Carrie's dermatology appointment.  However when I got there, I found out I was a day early.  So, I visited with Carrie a bit before going home.  Then I got an email from Sue that the appointment was changed to next month.  Later on in the evening, I got a call from Oxbow because Carrie tested positive for covid.  

THURSDAY:  I got my income tax done at the Dale this morning and then went home where I packed a lunch to take to FREEDOM for my video study with Betty and Peggy.  That went very well.  The topic is ISRAEL and the CHURCH.  


FRIDAY:  I went to my dental appointment and it went fine.  Then I went to the Y and walked the track, used the Sci-Fi and also the recumbant bike and disinfecting the equipment well after I was done.   Then I went to WalMart for a few items.  I now have everything I need for a modified St. Patricks Day dinner (modified because I will use ham).   I bought three pairs of jeans which were on clearance for five dollars each and also two sweatshirts for three dollars each.  I don't really like the sweatshirts, they are an ugly yellowish color, but they looked comfortable and will be good for wearing to bed in the winter.  I went to the library and read the last three days papers, and picked up two books that I requested.  When I got home, I tried the jeans on and one pair fits well and the other two do not, so I will offer them to Peggy.  I got a message via the "portal" from Dr. Danaher's office, but they did not answer my questions, so I emailed back via the portal,but it is Friday afternoon, and the office is closed.  I am pretty sure the staff is still there, so I am hoping they get back to me otherwise, I will have to stay home all weekend and try to get an answer about whether or not I should be isolating on Monday.  Connie called in the evening and we talked for about a half an hour.  She seems to be doing well.  She asked me to send some pictures of my outdoors vest to Hildy so Hildy can show them to her.  I found my vest and did that.  


I finished watching the last season of LUTHER and started watching the sequel LUTHER: The Rising Sun on Netflix.

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. ...

 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...
