It's been a good day. We spent the day doing house stuff and then went to the Cinco de Mayo party. It was fun - music by the Gardenia Abdul band, good food, and we met some nice people. And WE DANCED - we never dance but tonight we did! Everyone here seems so nice and open to making friends. I suppose that's normal since most of the people we meet have lived here a year or so and want to make their place as much as we do. The last two functions we've been to we've met recent widows - that's disturbing, but on the realistic side, this is a senior community. Nevertheless, my heart goes out to them and admiration too, for getting themselves up and getting out. Of all the places to find one's self alone, this is probably one of the best from the standpoint of having kind, understanding people all around. Being surrounded by folks in our age bracket is comforting - safe. We're all facing similar challenges and are ready to support each other.
Jim did some wonderful things today - he hung the broom/mop holder and also the wall mounted magnifying mirror. Now stop laughing and get real - mops and brooms fall all over the place, and always at the worst possible time. Ours are now safely corraled. Thank you Jim! The wall mounted mirror is exactly what we needed to see the back our our hair - it's perfect! Good job Jim!
This was mostly a chores day, so the Cinco de Mayo party was a nice ending to a busy day. Now it's time for bed.
Love to all
Corrie and Jim
