It has been awhile since I wrote on my blog

It remains cold here in Canada although we did have a mild spell for a few days which has put several areas under a flood warning.  Several are near here in Hamilton.

I don't have much to say as I haven't been going anywhere much.  Yesterday I went out with a bunch of friends for lunch which was very enjoyable.  We were 7 people in all and then Grace's husband came for coffee as he was there to pick her up.

We had a lovely time and we celebrated our friend Jeff's birthday.  I am most fortunate as Jeff picks me up at my back door and brings me home, again to my back door.

Yesterday was a bit of a busy day for me, as it was my club's annual meeting.  I left in time to get there by 4 p.m.  but I could not get into the wheelchair accessible entrance so had to walk around and buzz the front door. One of the staff answered that bell and I told her I needed to use the side entrance so she went over there.  Miss missed about half of the meeting due to not being able to get in.

I hate being late!  I stayed afterwards and visited with Henry, the musician and then went into the lounge to listen to him play.  My usual group arrived a little later than usual but most of them turned up.  It was nice to see everybody. 

I have not gone regularly as I cannot hear people talking when the musicians play and I hate to ask people to speak up.

Another friend had given me some sleep tea and I took my first tea from it.  It helped a little bit but I had to get up three times during the night so in some ways it was not good.  I find essential oils are helping me sleep better than anything I have tried.

I seem to be catching a chill right now so hopefully it will pass and I will have more energy to do things around here.

Thanks for dropping by.
