Friday fun

Today was my Swedish group. I love having it every friday. I grumble a lot when I have to get up early but once I am there it is great. Today for a snack we had real Swedish open face sandwiches with rye bread, ham, egg slice and roe. Wonderful!

It was Show and Tell today. Had some interesting things. Photos, news article, a sympathy card, book. A short Swedish lesson. And great conversation!

My friend JR and I had lunch at Jalisco's. The new guy was there today. He is not new to me though. Good to see him once in a while. And I got a nice hug from D who works there. People are supposed to get 5 hugs a day just to survive. I am so far behind now I can never catch up. Explains a lot in my life. Truly lacking. I used to get many hugs from a friend but then suddenly there were no more. I guess that is my loss.

I came home and Nico and I took a nice nap together. Very nice. I hated to get up!

For supper my spouse actually brought home steaks from Marquette. He does that once in a while. But we never go there to eat. Never. Wonder why? Makes me wonder. But the steaks were wonderful!

I am taking my daughter to Kansas City to see her surgeon. She has had 3 back surgeries. The last was the worse. She had a job but it was too much for her and caused lots of pain. We have to leave at 7am. A challenge for me but we will share the driving. I am so grateful she is back in my life. I know we missed some years but no more. And it is surprising to me how much alike we are. Fun!

I have a cousin who says I should write a book. Just tidbits and stories I know. So. I actually have started. It cannot be printed or shared until I am gone. About people I know or have worked with. I started with my White Cross days. White Cross was a retirement home I worked at off and on for 4-5 years.
