Breakfast with Keith, then I took a short nap. Suzanne texted to say she was coming to see Katherine's apartment (they had known each other before and Katherine had lived at So-Fi) and would like to stop in. She did, bringing pictures of her niece's wedding in San Diago--quite a lavish and beautiful affair.
Lunch with Keith, but not Kathie, for a wonderful reason: Her granddaughter, who had had a number of miscarragies, was delivered of a health baby boy and Kathie was going to Lompoc to see the happy family.
At 1:00, I boarded the Orchard bus and went to CVS, then to Von's. Got graduation cards and a new baby card for Kathie's great-grandson, plus white zinfandel and a few other goodies. I got in just in time for two games of dime Bingo and darned if I didn't win one. I stayed for the social hour; Carol played the piano and we sang along while enjoying Margaritas. I didn't stay for trivia after.
Had dinner with Ray and Doris, as I saw that Keith was sitting with Cheryl and Mary. Hey, it was actually pretty refreshing; Ray is a big talker who worked on submarines for years and Doris is the one who was brought up in an orphanage, so both are pretty interesting.
I signed up to have the Orchard bus take me to Michelle's place at 10:00 today--I hope I have all the material and info I need. Took the elevator to the third floor and left the congratulatory card at Kathie's door. Still not sleeping well and may take a nap after breakfast.

Rosemary,
Is transportation by Orchard free? If yes, is there a limit to how far they’ll take you? Here they charge mileage and a flat rate. However they will take someone into the office if ambulation is a problem.
Transportation is free and you can go anywhere within Ventura County. However, Rick only drives on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday, so other days, you have to get the city Access Van, which is four dollars each way.
