My computer is up and running but I have been so frustrated with all new setups. Trying to teach an old dog new tricks. I get things figured out and then it all changes. The password that I use to sign on hasn't been working, finally Dad was here when I tried it and he told me to try another way that I thought was the password. Anyway, it worked. He said I had to think like a computer, I said that was my problem. I expect it to be the same every time. Anyway, I think I am up and running.
I had fun in California. I was so sick Monday I had a hard time deciding to go. I had a sore throat that felt like knives were in there every time I swallowed. I had a temp. of 101.8. I didn't feel good and I didn't want to get anyone else sick. I was rooming with Jane (our 92 yr. old) and Margaret (who had hip surgery and now needs to work) I took medicine that Sorena gave me called Plague. It is so nasty! I took a spoonful every hour all day. I decided to try to go because I would lose all my money and Jean said she needed me in spite of being ill. When I got to the airport Marylynn, my Drs. nurse, brought me antibo. I started taking them right then. I think she saved my life.
Tues. we went to Universal Studios. I enjoyed it but didn't feel great. We went to the Blues Brother show, we went last time and really enjoyed it. We were enthusiatic enough that they pulled about 8 of us up to dance on the stage. When they were finished "Jake" came and got me and said help me. He started twisting me around dancing and the girls were impressed that I could follow him. Tues. night we went to the Pantages and saw "Grease". It was good but I liked Wicked better. They had a picture of Taylor Hicks on the Marque like he was the star. He saw one song, Teen Angel.
Weds. We went to the Fashion District, the Farmers Market, and Alvera St. Shopping and nosy around. I really haven't found what is so great about the Fashion Dist. It is like Mexico to me. Little shops everywhere selling junk. Weds. night we danced at the Staples Center for the Clippers. They were a good audience. We stayed and watched the game and they won. I think we brought them good luck.
Thurs. we went to Long Beach and ate luncha t Bubba Gump's. I like that place. We then walked around looking at the sites and taking in the little shops on the Pier. We flew out of the Long Beach airport. Just as we arrived at our gate they froze the airport. Ya you guessed it. OBama. He was taking off after filming Jay Leno (I think) We did get to see Airforce One, THAT was exciting. The people who were taking off at that time were delayed about 40 mimutes. We had a 2 hr. wait. All in all it was a fun trip. I got to know some of the gals better and enjoyed their company.
It is always nice to be home. Dad has been working on the bathroom downstairs and decided to tile the upstairs bathroom. It looks so nice. He is putting it back together. I am excited because it was such a gruggy bathroom. I had my mammogram and a dentist appt. I think I am finished.
We have had more snow and cold! Spring time in Utah.
Now we are just waiting to hear about that baby Green.
