I hate this computer

This is the second time I have tried to write this blog because the first one is gone! My old computer with a vertical line on the screen was slow but I didn't have to do everything again and again! After repeating the entry several times I often give up and just sigh out. My day up to this point has been good and hope yours has too.

To See Better

Yesterday I went to the optometrist and got a referral to have my eyelids shortened. My eyes are in good condition but I am having problems seeing. If I hold up my eyelids I see much better.

I also went to Pomona Catholic School to visit. A lot has changed since my retirement a few years ago. They have allowed boys to enroll in what had been an all-girl school, and now they are going to have 6th grade through 12th grade in what had been 9th through 12th grade. Enrollment has been dwindling and this is an effort to save the school.

It's a Good Day

I am painting every day except Sunday and now have nine paintings setting around on my living room floor. I was lucky and bought two very nice (like new)frames at thrift stores. New they would have cost $50.00 and $60.00 instead of $3.00 and $4.00.

I have four missionaries in the apartment once more. For about two and half months I have only had two, but one of them needed a lot of attention. He is a good ping-pong player so that made up for all the extra attention. The first time we played he said he couldn't believe a 78-year-old women had beaten him...he won the next game!

Ms. Kitty has taken an interest in my painting. She sometimes jumps up and sets on the back of my chair and looks over my shoulder. Her water dish dispenses the water from a container that sits on the dish, and when it gets empty she drags it into the middle of the floor. This morning while I was washing the dishes she turned it over. It was empty, and I guess she wanted it to be washed!
