Sewing

 This morning when I opened the door to feeding the cat i had not disarmed the alarm system sufficiently and the alarm went off. The outside cat I call Springer was so frightened he didn't finishes breakfast. I bring Stranger inside the house to discourage other cats from calling my house home. I bought new books for my Temple robe and put them on myself. I did a good sewing job, but the sewing job on the hooks themselves was insufficient and gave away at a most inopportune time. I have spent a few minutes this morning sewing on my robe. yesterday I ordered another bathing suit. This is the third time I have tried to buy a bathing suit using the computer and the two times before have been failures. I have high hopes for this suit because I have done a bit of research. The last two suits I bought did not do well chlorine water. One of them I wore three times and the other one I wore maybe six or seven times before they gave out.  I am really  enjoy playing water volleyball.  I never guessed that I would be able to play again at the age of 84.

Use it or lose it, problems with posting

I can't figure out how to post after I've written something. Well possibly I just figure out how to post. I drove over to Laverne and picked up my new glasses. I had my cataract surgery on March 31 and my eyes have not been what I had hoped for. The color is brilliant but the focus is not clear. I guess you can't just trade in the old model and get a new one.

 I'm going to go to the YMCA this afternoon and play water volleyball. It's fun but there's one man that thinks he needs to play everything that comes close to me. I will be more aggressive in the future and I think he will get the idea that he needs to stay out of my way after we collide a few times. The game is fun but hardly resembles volleyball. We play  with a beach ball and the net.

Better to see you with my dear

 June 19, 2014 I went to see Dr. Alanis today he looked me  right in the  eye (he's my optometrist) and said you need cataract surgery.  I had always heard that the cataracts had to get ripe before they could be removed surgically. Dr. assured me I was  ripe  and my vision will prove after the surgery. I have always thought of ripe being the stage just before rotten and I will be glad to get my vision  fixed before it reaches the rotten stage. I hope I can stand the shock of looking into the mirror after my vision improves. Old people have vision failure for a kind and thoughtful purpose. I have a strong heart and I'm willing to take the chance.

Ms Kitty where are you

My new lift chair was delivered this morning and Ms Kitty disappeared. The door was open for a while. She comes when I call her,but I called and called and she didn't come. I drove all over the neighborhood, no Ms Kitty. I looked all over the house and no Ms Kitty. I was closet to tears. I walked into the bedroom and called again, and Mr Kitty came out from under the bed.

It's great to be loved

After church I took my sweet Alzheimer lady to the care home. The sweet ladies care givers insisted that I eat.I tried to explain that I was on a diet. We had a slight langue barrier so I ended up eating a small lunch. In R S a sweet sister handed me a plate of cookies, I gave them to Candace's boys. As I was leaving the church building A man stopped me and said he loved it when I shared my testimony. I usually have a bite of humor to share along with my love for the gospel of Jesus Christ and my Heavenly Father. I just got a phone call and a grandma I love you song from Candace's boy (they have adopted me). I will go to diner at Candace's mothers home. It's no wonder I'm fat, love is fattening!

The diner with the Catholics was nice. I was greeted with hugs and smiles. I am so glad I'm a member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Catholic ritual prayers are a mystery to me. Yesterday Candace and I went to the gym and to Costco. I am still on Nutri-system but have been stuck on the same weight for a week. I have lost 18 pounds and will stick with it until I reach my goal weight.
