End of heat wave

After all that heat, yesterday was actually cold (and raining a lot) and now my nose is running.
That was quick.

Happy birthday (yesterday) to Margie Ferrare. It seems she is in NJ now until Sunday and I hope I get to see her. (It's hard to tell where she is at any given time!)

Ann had triple bypass surgery and Gina has been keeping me updated.

Yesterday was Sugarfootin' Sunday and I started the day at the free trial class at The Max Challenge. I invited a bunch of folks to join me dancing, but no one did (although one wrote to explain and still wants to come sometime). It was fun and I danced over 12,000 steps!

I met some new young friends and helped show them some dances, mostly Simone? and her mother, Kristen. Simone is looking forward to dancing with me again at the next one.

I am disappointed in Dan, the managers, response, or lack therof, in working toward Prospectors' participation in our Eastampton Day.

Free movies with movie pass is over for me until next cycle since I have already seen my 3 for the month (?) and I want to see Peppermint.

I was just thinking about the Edinburgh Fringe. I have been twice, but I can't remember the circumstances of my first one. Did I go alone? with Jennifer? Call Nancy Drew!

Today is still dark looking, but maybe not raining. I hope the Contact, etc. Walk for Suicide Day is still a go.

First Day of School 2018.....Not! :-)

Delran started the 2018-2019 school year on Tuesday with two in-service days. The kids start today. I am so glad to be retired and not having to worry about anything school related, but amazed to realize this is the start of my 13th year as a retired teacher (July 2006 start.) Wow.

I am finishing my tenth week of The Max Challenge and still enjoying it. I have one more month now.

Jennifer and Sue have firm plans for arriving in October for Jenn's birthday and I am delighted that they will be beginning and ending with us here so Tom gets in on the action too. The Brooklyn stay in mid-trip will be fun and Hamilton!

Tom is being very brave about his health situation(s) and has visions of exercising (but keeps a bag of candy and cakes just in case).

Ilsa, who has been dealing with my hair for 30 years (?) or more has moved to Iowa and when I got my hair cut yesterday, it was different and sad. :-(

Movie Pass is on its last legs and I miss hitting a movie whenever I felt like it and having them all ready and waiting for me at any time. :-( But I can't complain...it's been a good run...for us, not them, sadly.

As time was running out (Aug. 31 deadline), Tom made vacation with RCI plans for us in November, December, and January. We have places, but no transportation set as yet.

I worry about my eyes. Otherwise, I feel pretty good.
