This was an interesting day in the continuing saga of making the changes in our "new home and lifestyle". Brookdale hosted a monthly "Welcome" to new residents and invited folks to bring family as well as those from the Assisted and Independent Units. While Sadie was at preschool, Julie, Jack and Carolyn came up to our place to hang more pictures. Their efforts today were primarily in the "Den" room focusing above my computer. We were pleased that Jack could get his Ice Cream Cone and they could join the group to welcome us and others to Brookdale. We had earlier scheduled a review with John Owens, our financial Advisor so we left the party early to meet with John. While the girls were putting up pictures, they put up the one that is shown on the photo with John.The ladies took Jack and went to pick up Sadie as we welcomed John. We were pleased with our meeting and will look forward to another good year with our financial investments. John is very professional in dealing with us on business and retains his formal composure just as he does with all others, business is business.
Carolyn and Jule are also very professional in the way they hang pictures. We had never given much thought to the grouping of them as they have done in our Living Room and are doing in the Den room. (Earlier we called it our sewing/computer room, but it is evolving into more of a Den.) They lay the grouping out on the floor and then put paper patterns on the wall to be satisfied how it all blends.
I invited friends to stop by after supper where I wanted to give him a "Complete Book of Golf" that I pulled off the shelf at the house this morning. Carl was the instructor at Concordia back in the early '90's when I took his beginning golf course. He and Helen moved here recently also.
