It is a new month, however, I will fill you in on the last couple of days of June and my July days so far.
My last post indicated a flight in a Harvard plane for my son. The weather was perfect and he was able to fly, which he did for half an hour. Everyone who indicated they would come on watch him, did so. A lovely dinner was held at a restaurant not too far from the small airport. A great day was had by all.
June 29th, I had a two hour appointment with my dentist, for a crown and two small fillings. It is amazing what can be done these days with all of the new equipment available to Dr's and dentists, My crown was made by some kind of laser printer. I had a crown many years ago and had to wait a couple of weeks for it to be made, so this was quite impressive. A wand took a scan of the tooth to be fixed, the picture was displayed on a screen and the dentist removed parts of my gum and cheek and just left the picture of my original tooth. Pressed OK and went to the printer, within a little while a ceramic crown was attached to the tooth needing repair. My bank account took a hit after the work was done, having said that it would have been more $'s if I did not have dental insurance.
June 30th. I had a much needed hair cut, and asked that it be cut just a little bit shorter this time. It was, and I liked it more than the previous way I had my hair done.
July 1st. Being Canada Day, the complex I live in had a celebration. Those of us who decided to attend all wore the colours of red and white, or were decorated with our maple leaf flag. We had a few outside games to play, I decided to play Corn Hole. If you have never heard of it, I suggest you Google it, as I tried to describe it however, my description was very confusing. After a few games, I was declared the woman champion. Having never played it before, it must have been beginners luck. A pot luck dinner followed with the meat each person brought to BBQ for themselves and pot luck salads and desserts were presented for everyone to pick and choose from. Even though it was very hot the stiff breeze and the shade made it a pleasant day, I decided to be outside, however, people who did not like the heat were able to choose either be outside or inside where it was cooler. When it was dark I went up to the top floor deck to watch all of the fireworks being set off all over the city. I had a very nice day.
July 2nd. I went out for lunch with two of my quilting friends, we then visited the mother of one of them. Mother lives in a care facility and loves playing Quiddler, again Google it. I had never played it before, and it is a fun game for all ages.
July 3rd. Being very hot and humid again, I made the errands I had to do very brief, and came home and sewed where it was cooler. Being Friday I went to happy hour in the evening, the hour ended up being three, however, we put the world to right and had great conversations and a lot a laughs
July 4th. I went out for dinner with a friend and then we watched the U. S. fireworks on TV.
Today July 5th. I will be going to a surprise 80th birthday gathering for one of the residents here in the complex.
The oppressive heat and humidity has broken and we have a cloudy day with the forecast of some showers. Next week the weather will be sunny and not so hot or humid, very pleasant summer weather.
Have a great day.
Cheers
