March 5th through Wednesday March 8th, 2023

SUNDAY March 5th: Church was good today. Fifteen plus kids of all ages were dedicated. 


 I went to Niagara Produce for a few things before going home.  When I got home, after shoveling part of my sidewalk, I put two baking potatoes in the oven.  I found the movie THE DOLLMAKER and started it, even though I dislike Jane Fonda.  

Leslie emailed that she got the package.  I finished watching the movie in the evening.  I realized that I had seen it before, but continued watching it.  Then I found the movie LAMB, not the horror movie, but the Irish movie about the "brother" who left the reform school taking a ten year old boy with him. 


MONDAY the 6th of March:   I had a message from Cindi this morning saying that Jen wants she and I to meet up with her for lunch a week from today.  I msg'd back saying I can't do it next Monday and suggested the following Monday 3/20.   I went to WEGMANS and FeelRite to do some shopping.  When I got back to Lockport, I went to the Y where I walked for about 25 minutes and used the recumbent bike for perhaps 15 minutes.  I also purchased $25 more worth of tickets for the basket raffle and distributed them.  I spent the rest of the day at home. 

TUESDAY the 7th:  I went to STABILITY at the Y this morning.  I met up with Jan there.  She was concerned that she might not be able to do everything due to a sore shoulder.  The half hour went really fast, and once again, I was made aware of how lacking I am in balance.   Then I went to the Ladies Life Group which went well and then I went to Peggy's house to take care of Petra, and then met up with Cindi, Karen and Lori at Aguagates, a Mexican restaurant.  We all had the taco salad, which was pretty good, but not spectacular.  We sat and talked for a while after we were done eating.  

Later on in the day, Greg Stenzel brought over a document that I needed to sign.  He said he thinks Carrie and the other participants will move into their new home soon, maybe by the end of this month or early next month.  They will take all of the old furnishings and gradually replace it.  

WEDNESDAY:  I had my chiropractic appointment and then went to take care of Petra and then met up with Jan at the Y.  When I got home, I showered and had a very small lunch.   I had a phone message on my home phone saying that tomorrows PAINTING CLASS is postponed until March 24th.  I rested for a while and then got ready to go to Elaine's house, where I met up with Sarah and Elaine.  Sarah just leased a new car and she drove us to the Cambria church where we picked up corned beef and cabbage dinners.  We took them back to Elaine's house where we ate them together and visited for a while, discussing senior citizen topics such as assisted care vs. nursing home care. dermatologists, hiatal hernias and high prices.  We had a good time together, and finalized our plans for Saturday night when we will go to ALL SAINTS CHURCH for their St. Patricks dinner including a basket raffle.  

Lori will meet us there.

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

 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
