Hi, everyone. I hope you’ve had a good week and that you are all doing well. I’m dealing with pneumonia right n ow. I’m on my second round of antibiotics and also received a big shot of penicillin last week. I’ll be so glad when I’m over this awful rattling cough. Several have told me they had this and the cough continues quite a while. I sure hope not, it wears me out.
I’m told they had 23 in for exercise one day last week. And several of the regulars were missing. So, like I said last week, there’s plenty of room for all that want to come and exercise. It’s fun and none of it is hard.
Last Friday we had 15 people tested by the ladies from the hospital for blood pressure and blood sugar count. They were glad to have a few more than they have had in previous months. They’ll be back on March 17 so you can come in and get checked that day. We hope to have even more then.
Bob and Gene Matli put a quilt in the frame last week. It was put together by one of their grandmothers. It’s very colorful. Come by and work on it if you’d like.
Next Saturday night we’ll be meeting for our games and music. Grab a snack of some kind and come on down to join us. We’ll meet at 6 p.m.
