Brooklyn Back When - Open Thread

Good morning friends
Happy Thursday
Meeting Debbie for brunch later on
Hope you all enjoy your day!!

We did not get to the dinner party Wednesday night. Carol was not up to it. I made her pasta and sauce here in the apartment. She is feeling a lot better tonight. Tomorrow I will be trained as a dispatcher for our Sun City Center Security Patrol. The patrol is a backup for our County Sheriffs officer. No guns, no arresting just observation and reporting any kind of trouble or offering assistance where needed. Between that and the work I am doing for a Nondenominational Worship group, I am keeping pretty busy. Guess it will keep me out of trouble. Remember the old saying "Idle hands are the devil's workshop".

Hi Warren
Glad Carol is feeling better
You're a busy bee down there
Good for you. It will keep you young
Weather in 50's this weekend with rain
Not too bad
Enjoy your weekend!

Happy Sunday all, Terry it looks like you got real lucky. Last week was rainy and cold. Forecast for this coming week warmer & dryer! Anna, welcome to the retired people club. After awhile you will find yourself as busy as ever but you will enjoy it more. Judy keep working on that wrist until it is 100% better. Patsy, watch out for that wrist of yours. You do not want to do too much until the healing process is well under way. Debbie, Talk about busy, today I have to take a large part in the Nondenominational worship service here and in another place., Tuesday I will be going to two Assisted Living places to monitor the service we do there and in a few weeks I will be in charge of those services for a couple of Tuesdays, Next Sunday I will be running the Communion Service in two places On Easter Sunday I will be doing the sermon here at our service and at another Independent/Assisted Living place down the road. On the 21 I will pull my first shift as a dispatcher for the Security Patrol. It is the busiest I have been in years.

Beautiful here today in Florida.  Hit the gym already and now Costco..Beach tomorrow...

Hope Patsy and Judy you both are feeling better..
Will get to see my childhood friend again this time around.  Maria Torre from 18th street.  Accidentally met her in a restaurant where my cousin was singing here in Florida.  We went to grammar school all the way up to high school and have not seen each other in abut 30 something years or more. Don't remember if I posted this last time when I was here.  Senior moments these days.. 

Wrote the above post this morning and I guess i never  hit post comment  lol 

Good morning friends
Hi cuz
Everyone have a great day!!!

Hi Everyone,

Went back to the surgeon today, he said everything looks good. However, I told him that the tips of my fingers are still somewhat numb, he said it could take up to a year!!!! Or possibly not get full feeling back at all (nice of him to tell me that now). But my fingers were really numb, so they do feel a lot better, so he said that's a good sign and should mean that I will get full feeling back....

Hope everyone is doing good.

Hi all hope all is well
Beautiful day in florida

Good Morning All  Have a Great day.

Hi guys
Rainy & cold today.
Weekend looks nice though.
Everyone have a great day!!

Has been beautiful here this week. Terry came down at the right time. Terry, I sent you an e-mail a little while ago. Judy. how are you going to count your change at the store with your fingertips numb???Just kidding. I am sure it will all work out just fine. Patsy, how is your wrist feeling? Anna, start counting the days and figure out what you want to bring with you. That includes your sweaters for the cool days and your bikini for the hot days. Debbie, stay healthy. A lot of injuries up there! Last Tuesday I monitored the services I will be conducting in 2 nursing homes/Assisted Living. It is sad to see the condition (mental & physical) of some of the people. A service like the ones I saw and will conduct shortly is something those people really need and want. This Sunday I will be conducting (along with some help) a Communion service here at our place. I am glad I can be of some use to my fellow residents. Okay, Carol wants to do a little shopping while our housekeeper finishes cleaning up our apartment. It is really amazing when you consider that many of our Grandparents came over here from Europe as Indentured maids/housekeepers and now we have one that comes in once a week!!!!

Hi everyone-thanks for the well wishes-...only a week but I'm enjoying my retirement..been out everyday-visiting a girlfriend for lunch, running errands, did some shopping, i'm loving every minute of it!  Warren-I don't think I'd better bring a bikini down to Florida-Florida may never be the same!!!!! thanks for the advice and glad you're keeping busy..Judy & Patsy-hope u both recover soon..Hi Debbie-have a great day Hi Debbie..and Terry-enjoy the Florida weather!...my brother said the house is going to be started next week...and I'm on baby watch too...Jessica had to go on maternity leave and could go in labor within the next couple of weeks...so I'll be pretty busy...enjoy your weekend everybody-talk to u soon..............

Hi Anna,Warren, Patsy and All
