Eyes - Activities - 4th of July Party

Shalimar, FL   (Hi 90  Lo 76)

We had rain most of the week off and on but no bad storms. I did watch the storm chasers again in the northern states. That should calm down now that we're in summer. Now to watch for hurricanes.  There's always something to entertain me with weather, earthquakes and volcanos. 

Monday:  My yearly eye appointment went well. It's been two years and I'm not reading real well and the computer distance is off a bit. The Dr said my glasses are now a little too strong. That's a first. I got the lenses ordered and we'll see better hopefully in a couple weeks.  I'm done with appointments for the year. I'm happy no one found anything that I have to go to another doctor to fix problems. 

Tuesday was the normal day with TikTok which I was a moderator. In diamond art I'm starting a new picture.  I had meditation after that then home. I worked on another puzzle and got it done. (Click on the photos to enlarge). I got this one for Christmas and it was so fun!  It took only two days to do it and it's a 1000 pieces. The characters are from Lego sets. I would do a lot more with the Legos, but I have no where to put them. I'm thinking of getting a bouquet of flowers that they have on the website. One of my friends did a bunch of them for her wedding. 

Wednesday: I did some errands and got gas. I checked when the last time I bought gas and it was April when I took my trip down south for the cruise. That seems like months long ago. I was getting low and didn't want to be caught in a hurricane with no gas, if I need to get out. I didn't do much the rest of the day. I did pack and went to play cards. 

Thursday: I had another TikTok then a zoom meeting which ended up really informative. The activities gals moved the meetings for the month to 1:30 so I couldn't go to the crochet group. We did the planning for August for what we'd like to do and where the outings for dinners will be for next month. Also the craft fair has been moved to December, which is great! I played cards that night. 

Friday:  The 4th of July!!  We had a great group for our luncheon!  We had the best food and some great laughs. There were 28 people. Here's some pictures.  Our chefs, Dustin and Mickie.  We had hamburgers and hot dogs provided by the Managers.

Most of the ladies stayed a couple hours. It was a great time for all of us. 

Saturday: I got up way to early.  I had the monthly meeting in the lounge, so I got more organized.  We had several come which I was surprised since most of the gals were at the luncheon. It's good to see who comes every month to learn what's going on in the community.  I had a change in plans so I went home and did some diamond art.  In the afternoon I went to a neighbors to help with her puzzle. I don't want to get another one out till I get back from my trip. Speaking of that I'll be late a couple days in posting a blog next weekend.  At 5:00 I went to social hour. By Monday we'll be tired of each other. 

Sunday: I'm posting this on Saturday night, I want to be on time this week. I have an ice cream social at 2:00 and need to get my boarding pass at the same time.  I may be running late for ice cream. I write a blog  on Monday the 14th.
