Week of Sunday March 16th through Saturday the 22nd, 2025

 SUNDAY:  I was up until three p.m. this morning, (unwinding from my trip) but I forgot about the time change, so it was really four p.m.  I had started a load of laundry and fire up my ROKU TV and found a movie I started to watch on the first flight yesterday THE QUIET GIRL, but all of a sudden around the time the clock said three a.m., I started to crash and went to bed a few minutes later.  I slept four hours and then got up and used the bathroom and found a VDH podcast and listened to the first few minutes before I fell asleep again.  I found this mornings sermon online and put it on.  I got a few more hours sleep and I think I woke up around eleven a.m. but I thought it was ten a.m. because of the SPRING AHEAD clock chance that took place a few days ago.  I spent the day at home, working on unpacking and this blog and uploading pictures to Flickr. Mary Turk brought my mail over in the afternoon.  She is so sweet and I really like her.  I ordered a pizza from LOCK CITY PIZZA about four fifteen.  It was supposed to arrive in forty five minutes but it was about an hour and fifteen minutes before it arrived.  I called Peggy in the evening and she told me that she and David sold her car and purchased a HYUNDAI.  I think it is a SUV.  

MONDAY:  I got my income tax documents ready in the morning. I called Elaine and we arranged for her to pick me up tomorrow at five p.m. in order to go to SOLID ROCK for spaghetti.  Then I called Jan to ask her if she wanted to go to the Y and she did, so we agreed to meet there at noon.  I quickly got ready and left early to stop at RiteAid and pick up my prescriptions, and pick up a free drink.  Jan had arrived at the Y a couple of minutes before me.  She was in an upbeat mood which was surprised me.  She had been posting on Facebook about wanting to stay home all the time, so I was concerned that she might be depressed.  We walked for close to forty minutes. Then I went to ALDI to get ingredients to prepare corned beef brisket.  They were OUT of them, but I got all of the other ingredients and other stuff I needed.  I ran into Peggy there.  I had to go to WalMart where I found a brisket.  Then I went home where I spent the rest of the day.  Pam called, and Peggy called and later on in the day Becky called to remind me of spaghetti at Solid Rock tomorrow night. I called Betty to ask if she would be going to Hong Kong Buffet tomorrow and she was very abrupt and said probably not.  I worked on uploading pictures from the cruise to Flickr and made a lot of progress, but I still have a lot of labelling and tagging to do.  

TUESDAY:  I went to the Ladies Life Group at Freedom Church.  After that, several of us met up with Peggy and other members of the CONNECT seniors group at the Hong Kong Buffet for lunch.  There were 21 of us in attendance. and the event went well.  I met someone new to me, a woman named Ginny (short for Virginia) who owns and runs a home health aid business called HELP AT YOUR HOME.  The Lockport Travel Club was meeting at the Dale Association at two thirty and I could have gotten there on time, but I decided to go home instead, since I had plans to go to SOLID ROCK for spaghetti. I laid down on the couch using my BRUDER MASK and fell asleep.  I woke up in time to get ready for Elaine to pick me up.  She was a few minutes late.  When we got to the church we sat with Sarah and another woman who I know, but I could not remember name.  She told me but now I have forgotten.  Our spaghetti was very good. As we were leaving, we ran into Jan and her son Michael.
