Rainy Thursday (2)

It doesn't look very nice out, but I haven't heard that today's rain dated CONTACT golf fund raising event is cancelled, so I will be there taking photos. That will be after a SHIP counseling session and before tonight's tax class.

A lot of my days this month have been double or triple packed with activities. Yesterday's lunch with Gee Gee was really fun.

at Houlihan's in New Brunswick

Tom's next doctor's appointment is Oct. 1, but meanwhile, I picked up the biopsy report and the part I understood looked like good news. :-)

I am very excited about next week's upcoming lunch at Casamari with a bunch of Delran retiree friends. So far we have 12 who are able to attend, some of whom I haven't seen in ages!

We haven't seen Zoe since she moved to NYC, but it's nice knowing she is here! (and having a great time, too, it seems!)

Getting ready...

It's time to start packing (we are so bad at packing :-(

Good news: Zoe May is moving to NYC! We are so excited!

Teacher Appreciation

I got up bright and early Saturday morning to man the H & R Block table during the Staples Teacher Appreciation event. Linda Shinn came by and we reminisced about meeting up at the shag place in Myrtle Beach. Amanda Diaz and her husband tried to think of where they knew me from and it turned out it wasn't BCEA, but, rather, the Eastampton 5K run. Two Burlington County residents that teach in E. Brunswick came, independently of each other, at the same time and had a good chat about common colleagues and family life. We had fun dancing at Prospectors Friday night. Speaking of Prospectors, it's so upsetting and disappointing that WXTU will no longer be hosting Friday Night Lives there. :-(

Monday, Monday.....

I'm heading out for the dentist, library, HR Block meeting, and County Corner Store session for SHIP. Whew! I'm tired already! :-)

The week-end included dancing at Prospectors (no, I didn't win the tush push contest, but it was fun), two movies (Bourne Legacy (not bad) and The Watch (not my first choice, and not highly recommending it at all, but it was funny in parts), and Sunday brunch.

I have something to do every day this week, oddly enough, but maybe we'll get to the beach one of these days (if it cools down and isn't raining!)
Staples Teacher Appreciation Day is the 18th. (I'm "hosting" at an H&R Block table at the one in Mt. Holly).

Jackson is back from the Dominican Republic and Sue and fam look like they're having lots of fun in Rio.

How about those Olympics? (Go, Carli!)

Week-end fun

We danced at Prospectors Friday,  partied on Saturday, and saw the new "Total Recall" on Sunday. 

Here's a sample of the party fun: (many thanks to the gracious hosts!)

August already...

So my scheduled jury duty is not happening yet still....I have to call again Wednesday night...

It's sounding rainy...not boding well for the parties happening outside today :-(

We are struggling with Windows 7 on the new computers. Perhaps it's time to find and read some directions....

We made some plans for Florida, time share-wise; Myrtle Beach is coming up and Tom is interested in finding a way to get there sooner than our set time. We'll see.

Barnes and Noble posed a question for readers of Facebook: What was the first book you read? There were over 1900 responses (and I skim/read all of them!). Fascinating!
My first best book I ever read had to be Dr. Seuss's Horton Hatches an Egg. I loved that story!

Going for the Gold

It's Olympics time once again and we are glued to our TV for the exciting events! USA! USA! (and UK, too!)

July is drawing to a close and we have been pretty busy throughout. Tom had his BCG treatments, we had a mini Heroes marathon with Jackson, and we went to the Jamboree in the Hills (hooking up with George and Doreen after all this time!). We've seen like every movie that's out that we wanted to. I've been attending a study group with my HR Block friends (there's a big IRS test a comin') and I had some train adventures as I attended a really great Medicare Conference in New Brunswick last week (and tied it in to this month's lunch with Gee Gee, too). I "rocked Hollystock" in the rain Saturday, practiced SHIP counseling at the County Corner store with Ben this morning, and had a phone meeting with Mike of HR Block. Tom has happily gotten in some golf and is currently working on a magnificent eggplant parmesan dish.

My Heroes!
