Making up for lost entries

I have been dilatory since Sunday. Monday was a windy day but Schwinghammers and I went to play golf in Mercedes. I didn’t score particularly well but was delighted that I hit almost every shot solidly. I came home for lunch. I worked on the message after we took a walk. Our dear friends from Canada invited us to their home for supper. They served seafood crepes that were delicious. They are great chefs and hosts. We are happy that they are one of about 3 couples that have ever reciprocated when we invited them for dinner to try to establish a rapport. They have been very friendly. We finished visiting and watching the Cubs season opening game.
Tuesday morning Evelyn went to a breakfast program at the Methodist church with Bonny. The food was very poor but the program was good. She returned home, and we went to consult another hearing specialist. He refused to begin working with me because we wouldn’t be here long enough to get the hearing aid adjusted. He gave us some hints as to what to look for when we get to NC. I was impressed with his honesty. He could have misled us but didn’t. We did some light shopping and returned home for our happy hour party. While Evelyn was preparing, Bob Schwinghammer came and attached the table top that he had made for me. I attached the vice and we enjoyed a couple of beers. The party had evolved. Actually the original plan was to have 2 couples for snacks and beer. As things grew, it developed into a dinner and slide show or our trip. We began around 4 but didn’t finish until nearly 9. The meal did help us use up some of the things in the freezer and refrigerator. We were with the Thorpes and Baumans, couples who had rented properties across the street several years ago.
Wednesday was cool in the morning. Bob and I went to the local par 3 Executive golf course. I played poorly for most of the morning. We were home by 11 but didn’t eat because Bob and Theresa (she had played golf with another lady) came for a light lunch. Again we disposed of more food from the refrigerator. We enjoy their company although Bob and I can’t hear well. They left and we worked. I started to paint the table top but found the paint wasn’t homogenized. We went to choir practice, and I took the paint to another choir member who owns a hardware store. He said he would shake the paint for me but thinks it has frozen in the past and will not be of much use. We returned home and worked. I was watching Jay Leno as I sometimes do when up late but turned him off. He just can’t get past making derogatory remarks about former President Bush. It has been almost 4 months since the inauguration of President Obama, making it pretty disrespectful of a now American citizen who did what he thought was right in office. I think I will part ways with Jay Leno. I quit David Letterman years ago when he was very blasphemous after the Lord had blessed him with heart surgery.
