We visited a whole collection of people!
There was an old saying, “If I ran any faster, I’d run up my butt and disappear!” We were running around from 8:30 am until 7:00 pm today!
We started the day by visiting the Senior Citizen Center and signing Mary up for a watercolor class. Mary is exceptionally talented, but we have been on the go for the last four years so we let her art ambitions take second place. We plan to adapt the upstairs into an art studio, small computer area, and entertainment center!
We have plenty of room and excellent lighting all day long!
We went to brunch at Benji’s from the Senior Center. Mary was in a serious pickle trying to decide what to order. It was as if the menu had turned into a multiple-choice exam, and she was convinced that the wrong choice would lead to a culinary catastrophe.
Decisions decisions.
Their family-owned and operated NY-style Diner | Lounge | Deli boasts the classics you crave—from bagels and lox and Matzo Ball soup to pastrami on rye. One of the only old-school Jewish restaurants in Orange County, they pride themselves in excellent service and unbeatable eats that will leave you feeling like you’re back in Bubbe’s 1960s Brooklyn kitchen.
They are a cornerstone of the North Tustin and Santa Ana communities and widely recognized as a must-experience restaurant in Orange
I ordered a pastrami, triple-decker. And then I realized I should probably start working out if I’m going to keep ordering sandwiches that big!” It was THREE sandwiches, so two came home with us and are now living with Jeff.
Oh my!!
After brunch, we went to see my pulmonologist at UCI/St. Josephs. He looked at everything and said, “Keep doing what you are doing!” I will not see him, unless there is a problem, for six months!
The doctor’s office was decorated.
Then we went by CVS to get some meds and a flu shot. I have to go back after my operation next week and get the remaining shots, which include rabies.
Then we went to the bank so Mary could check on some items… and ended up leaving with a toaster, a free pen, and a mysterious sense of financial responsibility!
From the back, we went to Irvine to see Mary’s doctor. She is on a street unknown to GPS, so we have to go by sight.
On the way home, the traffic was terrible, so we called Dianne and decided to have dinner with her at a local eatery called Fresh Off The Boat—they were not kidding!
We noticed they also cater, so this is another place we may use! Hopefully they can cater to our strange obsession with mini hot dogs and unicorn-shaped sandwiches.
Dinner with Dianne.
We came back to the homestead at almost 7:00 p.m! Colleen sent a WiFi picture frame so the kids can send us pictures directly to the frame from their phones. I had one waiting.
I set upo the frame that Colleen sent us.
Dinner with Dianne.
We were pooped out and crashed, but I managed to call Joe and see if the boys wanted to earn some money! My poor old hands do not work well in the garden, so the operation is on Monday.
I need to get ready to plant the winter garden, but summer is coming!
Have grandsons; will work!
We crashed by 9:00 pm!
