A busy week.

It was a busy week for me, and I am tired from all the running around, but satisfied and happy!
This past Tuesday was our installation dinner and it was quite festive. One of our members was gracious enough to have it at her house once again. The room was decorated with flowers and looked great. With tables elegant with table cloths and napkins shaped like flowers as well. The twenty-six ladies that were present were served a four course luncheon that was delicious!!!!! It started off with a green salad with rolls, followed by a pasta course, then salmon and beef with fresh veggies for the entree. A special chocolate cake with ice cream was our dessert. The installation went off without a hitch, and oh, yes, I forgot champagne for a toast, and ice tea or coffee to have with our dinner. It was fun, and we had fun talking and laughing threw out lunch.
Next day I went to my daughter's for a trip to several local towns in the valley. The granddaughters were along too, and we had fun looking for treasures. A lovely picnic lunch was enjoyed and we plan to make another day trip soon! The granddaughter's are growing up so quickly!! The oldest one will be off to college next year, seems like she just was a kindergartner a few moments ago!!! A couple of days of walking around the lake, getting some plants in the ground and bingo, the week was at an end. Also helped with the senior centers birthday party for the month of June, which is always fun. Ah, and it is time for the monthly flea market tomorrow, and there's an estate sale in town. What hidden treasures will I find?? I will let you know!! :-) Antique Rose

  1. Hi Ma! Whew, I finally got all caught up with your blogs. Your blog is lovely. :-)
    Sounds like you've been quite busy, but happily so. How are your tooth implants doing? How are your sugar levels doing? Congrats for being able to stop taking one of your diabetes medications.
    I can't wait to be able to settle down somewhere and have a garden or two. I'd love a flower garden and a veggie/fruit garden. Someday...
    I love you! Miss you!
