FRIDAY

Weight report: I was down 2.2 at home to 137.4; at T..O.P.S., I was down 2.3 to 138.3. Those numbers are gratifying, but still not within my desired weight zone of 125 to 130.

Got home in time to join the balance class with Jackie, then lunched with Kathie, Keith, and LaVerne. After, I just fooled around on the laptop until it was time for  Bob's big hundreth birthday party at 3:00. It was in the multi-purpose room, which barely held the crowd. Besides residents, a number of Bob's relatives were there, including young children. There was a quartet who sang, a lemon meringue pie for Bob, and lasagne and cupcakes for the rest of us. And Bob danced with several women! Here are some pics from the party:

At the end of the table: Carl wore a party hat over his baseball cap. 

Kathie called to say she wasn't coming to dinner, as the med she takes for her migraine leaves her with no appetite. She can stand to lose a good fifty pounds, so that's actually not a bad thing. Ate with Keith and LaVerne and just had a half portion of chicken and sides. 

Showered before bed and turned in about 9:30. Was wakeful and got up to play Jewel Match Royale, but then slept until 8:00, so that's okay. Skipped breakfast, which suits me okay.

Amazing to see Bob dancing. Was he actually dancing or was his partner moving him? Congrats on the wgt loss. Now, that the visit to see Betty is over….I bet you’ll sleep well again. Emotional stress takes a major toll on all of us. I like the photo of both of you and Betty.

Thanks, Pat. Yes, Bob actually danced himself. He does have pretty severe ostoporosis (?), but other than that, is physically and mentally pretty much all there.
