Weekend stuff

We went to a memorial service for Paul's uncle. He was 98 so it was more of a celebration of his life. He actually had been pretty with it until just the last year or so. So now his children and grandchildren and great grandchildren are the new generation. He was the last of his generation. He and Paul's dad played cards, more than anyone I know. His uncle lived to play cards. They mostly played cribbage. Something I never learned. But they like pinocle and Paul's dad would play just about any kind of card game. He lived a full and interesting life. It makes me wonder what will be said about me upon my passing. People always say such good stuff about the dead person at funerals. I wonder how many of those people actually told the person all the good stuff while they were alive?

Other than the funeral a rather lazy weekend. My sister came into town so she came over Sun. afternoon. (they moved about an hour away) I put in a few more on line applications. and just generally relaxed.

I have an appointment with the ear doctor on Tues. The stuffiness is going away and now if I plug my good ear I can actually hear things most of time.

We have the late time for the swim meet this week. It doesn't start until 6:00pm.

I am thinking of having the CCC gals over for coffee talk on Wed. if it works for most of us.

  1. I guess you can't complain about 98 good years! Sorry for your loss though, you do hate to lose loved ones.
    Glad your hearing is improving!
