What's Happening?

Where have I been and what have I been doing, you may ask. Well, I have celebrated a daughter's birthday, a sister-in-law's birthday, a shopping trip to the beach, routine trips with hubby to the doctor, being fitted with hearing aids, etc. Much of this week was spent in the company of some type of medical person: physical therapist for hubby, gastroenterologist and audiologist for me, and that's enough! I did have one nice evening with my church group when we sang for a group of elderly adults at an assisted living place in town. Last night, our high school planning committee met for a wonderful meal and a time to plan our quarterly luncheons. So, as you can see, a hodgepodge of events have been filling my days. The things that have been happening have not been of the type that would make very interesting blogs plus I just couldn't get in the right frame of mind to write anything.

I did have a great trip to the beach with 7 other lady friends. We did a lot of shopping but I was unable to get anywhere near finished since I still don't have lists from my sons, grandsons and one granddaughter. I think I may just get what I want and hope they will appreciate them. I, along with everyone else I know, will be cutting way back on Christmas spending. With my having to spend thousands of dollars on hearing aids, I just cannot afford very much this year. And, the entire economy is not good either. I have lost way too much in my retirement accounts; yet, I'm hopeful the market will improve. I don't have as much time to regain my losses as our young folks do, but I do pray that everyone will recuperate their losses.
