The reader is familiar with the “usual”: Lorraine is “obsessive-compulsive” about ancestry/Ancestry. Furthermore, essentially, the television is usually on FOX News. Last night I searched for the Hallmark channel and watched two (2) Christmas movies. That’s four hours when I was not sitting at the computer “climbing the family tree.” Blissful four hours without negative news. I have one negative “remark” about the movies. Sometimes I was emotional and shed a few tears. Why? There was so much “caring” demonstrated in the movies. “CARING” is lacking for the residents at this Waco retirement facility.  (Unusually chilly temperature here, but thankfully no snow. Snow is appreciated in Hallmark movies.)

Tim Tebow Quotes, excellent inspirational messages.

Last week, I almost created a blog message titled “Lame brain Lorraine.” It was not an extremely appropriate time to go shopping on Wednesday afternoon, the day before Thanksgiving. The parking lot was full, and the aisles of the market were crowded. As you can see from the menu selection for the week, I seldom went to the dining room for their (in my humble opinion) inappropriate meals for Senior citizens. I’m not going hungry! I have salad greens, carrots, celery, green bell peppers, and a bag of apples (among other things). My mouth and my body virtually shout “THANK YOU” when I am eating a salad. Among other things, the purchase of the best soft toilet tissue. The stuff “they” furnish here could be used for sandpaper (in my humble opinion). ~~~~ No, I am not “grumpy.” That Care Bear is so cute, I had to include him in a blog message.

Unusual experience. I had a “sweet dream” and can remember every detail.  In the past, I awaken and remember that I had a dream, but only remember a bit briefly. Today, hours later, I still remember every detail of last night’s dream. In a most unusual way, I met the man who was purchasing Asher Point. The man is a Christian, and he was enthusiastic about engaging with the residents.

See the earlier blog message with Care Bears on parade. Later this month, see Care Bears celebrating the Christmas season.
