50th High School Reunion


Well, my 50th High School Reunion was this weekend.  Man, talk about time flying by!  I didn't go to CA for it.  I thought about it but then the roof, water heater, and furnace needed to be replaced.  I decided I needed not to travel this year.  However, thanks to technology, I was in touch anyway.  You see, we had only 3 grades at Millikan High School in Long Beach.  And 5,000 students attended.  So, one third of those students, I graduated with.  Many I didn't know.  Many I knew didn't go to the reunion, like me.  But, many I did.  Seeing everyones face is comforting.  They are in the same place in life as I am.  And thanks to Facebook we can be in touch.  Another life marker met.

Student Affairs Pot Luck 2023

The Studenr Affairs had their pot luck today.  I was surprised that it was downstairs in the lunchroom and not in the Rainier Room.  Many said the RR wasn't reserved on time and things were different cause I  retired.  I reserved rooms for years...  It was nice anyway especially to see everyone.  Irine gave me a mug.  I saw Lonnie who told me a car ran into her in a cross walk November 25th.  I also saw Shawn and gave him one of the Christmas Spiders.   It was fun to be with everyone. The phoro is from years past at this event.

Friday the 13th

Image
Yesterday I went to Young at Heart, and this morning we met at Trotters in Auburn for breakfast.  As I look around the table, they are very sweet people.  60s, 70s, and 80 years olds are represented.  I am amazed I am a part of an older people's group, but here I am.  I am very liberal and do what I want... were they do a lot of old peoples stuff.  Sometimes,  it's uncomfortable but I am there for a reason.  I am interested at finding it out. Friday the 13th... I believe in your luck is how you perceive it to be.  Today can be thought of a special lucky day.  And for extra luck, go pet a black cat.

Aurumn Self Check Coming

Image
I skipped yesterday since all I did was Young @ Heart.  I did treat myself to a Chick Fil A salad for lunch.  I worked some on pendants.   As we approach Autumn, I do another self check.  I will focus on that in the blog posts next week.  Letting go is a theme and that's why I added this meme.   Have a good weekend.
