Friends & Family

Time with Nesta is always a joy, reminiscent of monumental insignificant times with my mom. Some people are just fun to hang out with.

When I arrived for breakfast Friday morning (9/15), she shared that staffing shortages would cancel their morning exercise class, unless, of course, I would consider leading it. What a privilege to spend an hour with a full room of vibrant seniors. Staying seated we marched, wielded baby dumbbells, and consciously crunched our abs. Joy!

Next came a Kohl’s run for new, fluffy towels, and Home Depot to assemble the perfect pot of plants, both welcome additions to Nesta’s new room. She loved riding shotgun in my RV!

Saying good-bye Saturday was sad, but was off to spend the day with my nephew, his wife and daughter in Windsor (SE of Fort Collins). As we relaxed in their beautiful back yard, Lily feverishly chased a menacing squirrel. So you might understand my frustration when, after spending all afternoon outdoors, when I wasn’t looking she peed in my RV. Shame on me for not “taking her out.” Really Lily?

Posts in the next week will be sparse, as today (9/17) I’m in Denver visiting my niece, her hubby & kids, tomorrow my dear friend Pat, still in Denver, then off to Colorado Springs with sister & long-time friends. Will resurface if interesting stories emerge.
