Wednesday, June 12

Had a follow up appointment on Monday on my hearing aids.  Went well.  I am doing good with them.

I then went to a social committee meeting for the neighborhood.  We are planning our July 4 picnic.  I always furnish these big folding tables and I agreed to chop the onions this year.  Should n't be too big a chore.

I went to see Cowboy yesterday.  He was sound asleep when I got there.  I went rather early and they had just had breakfast.  I am told he normally takes a little nap after every meal but he got up when I arrived and we went out to see the flowers.  We pulled a few weeds and walked around the outside area a couple of times.  It was a beautiful morning, although a bit warm.  He did really well but was tired after two times around.

We went back to his room and the aide came around and shaved him.  It was time for me to leave.  Had a committee meeting back at home at 1PM.

I am still participating on the Emergency Committee but in a reduced role.  Like to keep up with the plans and decisions that are made and be prepared for the drills etc.  They are doing a great job.  It feels good to have been involved in putting it all together and writing the initial plan but there are lots of capable people involved so I am choosing to not get too involved.

I enjoyed a nice long walk this morning and then a good breakfast and time with the paper. I watered the flowers on the patio.  The summer is heating up big time.  We now have above normal temperatures going on here the middle of June.  Everything is surviving so far.  The geraniums look really nice and I have new buds on the marigolds.

At 2 I went to play with the dulcimer group at a nursing home.  That took from 2 to about 4.  Then I went down the local music store and got a foot pedal to go with a small keyboard that I bought for those who choose to accompany me on occasion.  It will be good not to depend on anyone else to come up with equipment.  Haven't had time to do much with it but it has a lot of capabilities that I can tinker with.

It is nine and I am tired so off to bed.  Will going over to see Cowboy again in the morning.
