Friday we decided to go to the mall for lunch and people watching, we figured it would be a nice cool place to be in this hot weather. We went to Fashion Place Mall. Jerry said she hadn’t been there in “Ages.” We had lunch at The Great Potato (I think that’s what it’s called.) After we ate we went into Bath and Body Works or the Body Shop (One of those) and Jerry bought some stress relief lotion. We walked around a bit then found some chairs and sat and people watched. “Some people” We saw some interesting people at the mall. It was fun to talk and just see other people and kids. Jerry got a kick out of the little kids that were there. We looked at jewelry at one of the kiosks. Fashion Place is getting to be a big place with all the other stores that will be coming in.
(There are 2 pictures on photobucket of today.)

Today we went to the Senior Center. I didn’t realize it was the last Friday of the month already! Jerry sang in the dining room today, not a lot of people were there today. Next week it should be a good crowd, they are having a 4th of July luncheon. It will be July 1st next Friday! Jerry is feeling better this week. Joe and the kids were cleaning up the back yard today too. Jerry appreciated that. I hope she has a good weekend!

I just added 2 pictures of today and 8 from last week (photobucket wouldn't let me add last week, they were having maintenance.) Click on the link to see them :) ------->

When I came over today Jerry was ready but thought Leslie was coming today to take her to the Dr’s. She will go tomorrow. I told her that I brought some salads again today so that we could go to the Murray Amphitheatre and listen to the music while we ate lunch. When we got to Murray Park we walked over to where the music was supposed to be and kept waiting to hear the music…when we got there, there was no music! There were people setting up for a play tomorrow. I was looking forward to taking Jerry to this. It’s just my luck though. It WAS scheduled for today. There was a pond by the amphitheatre with lots of ducks that we looked at. Jerry said “I just love to look at the ducks.” We took our lunch over to the same place we went the other day cause it was shady. Jerry said “I like to sit and listen to music while I’m eating” Sorry Jerry :/ She brought the potato salad that Sherry (sp?) made “I just LOVE her potato salad.” We talked for a bit then we went to Murray Cemetery and Eligian Cemetery after wards. I got to see where the Walton family is. She mentioned that she would like to drive to Ogden to see Mandi. (She mentioned again how much she liked the couch and the chair that she saw at the consignment store.)

Jerry said she didn’t feel like going out today. Her mouth has been hurting her. Leslie came over while I was there. After we talked, Jerry decided to go out; we told her it might help take her mind off of it. I’m glad she did decide to go, there was a big crowd singing today. She liked the songs and the company. They were also having a Father’s Day program. We went in the lunchroom after we were done singing and watched a guy play the saxophone, sing and play the keyboards. It was a big crowd in the lunchroom today too.
Happy Fathers Day this Sunday to all of the Dad’s :)

Tuesday June 14, 2011

So today Jerry wasn’t expecting me, she thought I was coming over on Monday, she even had her lunch ready to go. We were going to listen to Swing n’ Jive music at the Murray Amphitheater today, but her back isn’t feeling good so we just took the lunches that I brought over and sat at a park bench and had lunch at Murray Park. She was telling me that there was a place that she used to always go. “Dalleen would paint the kids’ faces and I’d make potato salad and the guys would drink beer.” She showed me where that was and said “You should take a picture of that” So I did :) after we were done with lunch, she wanted a flag for her yard. Today is Flag Day. We went to the dollar store and found a good sized flag; she bought 2 of them and some blue sunglasses. “Blue is my favorite color.” When we got back to her house I helped her put the flags out in front. We will try for next Tuesday for the amphitheater. I wrote it on her calendar to remind her.
There are 7 pictures on photobucket of today. (Well, it seems photobucket is having 'site maintenence'. I'll post the pictures as soon as I can.)

It was a nice day today. Jerry had fun singing with all the songbirds, it was a big group. She said she likes "To sing all the old songs." There were a few people that were there that hadn’t been there for awhile. It always makes it fun when there are more people. Jerry ate at the Senior Center today and after lunch we got on their computer and checked out her comments on her blog. (Thanks Mandi) :)
(There is one picture on photobucket of some of the other members of the singing group)

Today when I came in Jerry mentioned she had an appointment at 3:30. We talked about the weekend, and then she decided to go to Wendy’s to get something to eat before her appointment. (Her homework from Perrine Anderson is to walk Pepper every day.) When we were driving to Wendy’s we saw a home consignment shop and went in there after wards. She saw a rocking chair “Like my Grandmother used to have. We used to sit outside and have tea.” We saw some really neat furniture and she LOVED the leather chair she saw. She said “Bud would have just loved that chair!” We went to her appointment and afterwards scheduled another one for 6 weeks. We made it on a Tuesday so I could go too. “We can’t go on Friday.” ;) When we got home, both doors were locked, and she didn’t have a key! She was smart enough to get a screwdriver in the garage and we opened a window so I could crawl through. At least now we know how to get in if that happens again.
(Before I came over I was checking online about plays at the Murray Theatre. Jerry had mentioned she liked plays. I called them and they don’t have any during the day time hours except on Saturday. The Murray Amphitheatre has concerts during lunch time. She seemed really interested in that. We missed the one today, but next week we are planning on going there and taking a lunch. Should be fun. :) Today was jazz music and next week is Swing N’ Jive. They are having them a few days a week all summer long.)
Pictures are on photobucket of today.

We both were feeling a little tired today. Jerry was tired and said she had a hard time waking up. I needed to leave early today so we just went to the Senior Center so she could sing. The lady that she met last week, Glenna, showed up and she said she would like to come every week. Jerry tried to call her before today but I guess her phones weren’t working. It was a nice and warm day today. We'll do more next week. :)

OK so I finally got the video from last Friday along with a couple pictures from that same day and the pictures of Tuesday up! I couldn't do it in blogger, so they are in photobucket. Head on over to the photobucket link and click on "My album" to see them in order. ----->

Tuesday May 31, 2011

It was finally a nice and warm day today :) We talked for a bit about the weekend. Jerry said she had a nice time with her family and going to all of the cemetery’s to visit the grave sites. We were taking about cars at one point (I think it was because it was Jessie’s BD?) I told her she should have him take her for a drive. “Oh, he’d take me for a drive all right.” I guess he drives fast. We stopped off at Iceberg and got a shake to take with us to Wheeler farm. We ended up staying and sitting outside, we got some fries too. Jerry said “Next time we’ll have to get more.” We went to Wheeler farm and looked at the sheep, cow’s horses and ducks down by the pond. It was a nice day and a nice walk.
(For some reason I'm still not able to upload images. I'll add them when blogger will let me.
I have skype on my computer, if any of you do too or want to install it we could always do a skype session too. All you need is a web cam) :)
