Shalimar, FL (Hi 77 Lo 65)
I'm doing the blog early because I'm on the way to Illinois for a week with the kids and my sister. I wanted to separate the days on the blog.
Monday my neighbor came over about 10:00 to say the United Way needed volunteers to put together some little book marks of clothes pins that look like caterpillars. A few gals showed up but none of us could stay long. I had bowling, another gal had nails to get done etc. It's fun around here, pick your activity and go for it. (Click on the photo to enlarge).
In the afternoon on Monday we had an AI workshop. We learned how AI is changing society with so many scams. Changing pictures of children to look older that ruins their lives in the future. More and more scams are geared to the seniors. Our lives changed with social media and it's advancing fast. Please be alert on what you "click on" any link on the computer.Tuesday started with diamond art. I'm working on a Halloween picture of gnomes. I should have it done by October, maybe. I still need to do the crocheting for the craft sales in August. The Christmas manger sets are also in the line to make. I usually crochet at night, and there's still "time" before Christmas. After diamond art I went to meditation. We're doing a series on Oprah and Arthur Brooks on Build the Life You Want.
The best part of Tuesday was a hair cut. I looked like a shaggy dog, but it's hard getting an appointment here and I liked the gal I went to downtown, but she quit so decided to just stay here. Now I'm looking decent for the trip home next week.
Wednesday was the last Wii bowling for this season. I'm ready for a break this year. I'm on the decorating committee and helping out with the flyers for the village. I played cards then on to a massage and chiropractor that I do once a month. I played cards in the evening and zoom with friends till almost midnight.
Thursday I got my boarding pass for the trip. I just have to get up early tomorrow morning. I got a few of the last minute stuff done. I had lunch with a couple other crochet gals and then went to another village to crochet with quite a few gals, both from our place and off campus. I took the yarn that was in an office at the commons and they went through it.
It's so fun to see the prayer shawls and other things the gals make with yarn. I only do thread so I get some of that when people can't work with thread any more. I came home and packed the last minute things, cleaned up the apartment a bit, ate and worked on the ukulele and watched shows on tv. I'll have zoom with the gang tonight and go to bed early. The car place called and verified my rental car will be there tomorrow when I land, so that's going to be waiting.
