Exercise

Went to swim on Saturday and exercise on machines on Sunday. Try to use the Y since it can get too hot outside. Had a nice visit from Rupert , my grand dog. He now knows where I live and I love his visits.

Fancy Nancy Says: Grand dogs can be lots of fun. Like grandchildren  they visit and the parents have the rest of the work. Fun!

Writing Class and Dentist Day

Joined my writing class briefly before my dental apt. I do enjoy the class since it gets me writing. We had to write dialogue, so I wrote about a discussion with myself as a Gemini. We Gemini's are twins, so there are two in one.

Fancy Nancy Says: Gemini's can do lots of things and then they need a nap. Dentists today can do miracles.

My Uke Needs Help

Tried to tune my new uke and one string would never tighten. Guess I will go back to the music store to see if they know what caused the problem. Trying a new skill does take patience.

Fancy Nancy Says: Start all over  if you have to. You can't learn in a day. You need to understand the instrument.

New Uke Bought Today

My daughter helped me buy a ukulele and I think I will enjoy learning how to play. I always loved the piano, but with hearing issues, music changed. It should be fun to learn a new instrument.

Fancy Nancy Says: Never stop learning.

Learning About Ukes

Went to a uke workshop and tried to see if I would want to buy one. Then went online and there are some good free videos to teach you. Also saw a video about how to buy a uke. Time will tell, but I always like to learn. So glad to see lots of new friends online for my blog. How did you find it?

Fancy Nancy Says: Love to hear from new friends online. Send me a message.

Wonderful Uke Program

Attended a wonderful uke program where my son-in-law attracted a large group to teach the ukelele . I did not do the finer pointes, but strummed along anyway. He enjoys this project and he attracts a nice crowd. Anyone can attend and it is free. The library gave them the room to use for workshops. People of all ages attended.

Fancy Nancy Says: It is nice to see groups get together just for fun.

Rainy Medical Day

Today it rained all day.Had medical apts. and tried to set up delivery for a new refrigerator. This past week was a medical week. We sure keep the doctors in business. As we get older it takes more time to patch the body.

Fancy Nancy Says: Take care of your body, it is the only one you will get.

Medical Day and Rupert Visit

Did two medical apts. today and then tonight had a surprise visit from my son and his granddog Rupert. The dog is due for his monthly harido and it costs a lot more than my haircuts. My son seems to enjoy having the dog visit. It is like he has a grandchild now.

Fancy Nancy Says: All grandchildren are fun even dogs. Rupert likes to visit.

Wonderful Family Weekend

We were lucky to see all our family this weekend. We wish it could happen more often. They look great and the grandkids are adults at this point. What a joy it was to connect. We look forward to another get together in Sept. Not too far away. We have a very nice family.

Fancy Nancy Says: Family is very important!

Medical Day

I do keep the medical community in business. Today I saw my internist and then 2 hours at the dentist. They do not need a pension plan with me as a client.

Fancy Nancy Says: As you get older each week often has a medical apt. At least we can try to patch up our bodies.

Nice Visit With College Friends

Today we had lunch with two wonderful college friends. There were 6 of us since we each brought a partner. We talked about our next big reunion which is in two years--- 60 years out of college. Hard to believe where the time went. I am the only one still taking fun job interviews.

Fancy Nancy Says: I love taking job interviews. Fun!

Wonderful Birthday

Loved a fun day on my birthday. Enjoyed lunch with my daughter and then went to a fun evening at an artist's home . It was like a European salon where people performed and shared cultural things. A cellist performed, an artist shared pictures and a unique time. I have fun.

Fancy Nancy Says: Enjoy every day not just your birthday.

Nice Early Birthday Day

Today I handled several things. I made an arrangement to barter my refiregerator for some massages. I had ordered a new one. Then my massage therapist showed me the house I had to find to tomorrow afternoon. It was tucked into a road that had a rope cutting off entry. Next we had a nice theatre afternoon and saw a musical. Tomorrow is my actual birhtday and I got lots of nice E-mails. Many thanks in advance to all. It is always fun to connect.

Fancy Nancy Says: Getting older can include getting better.
