Halfway there I realized that I was an hour ahead for our six forty five reservation. Senile much?

I felt so bad for my niece today.  They both get bitten by mosquitoes so easily.  The younger one got 5 really bad ones while i was watching her.  I don't know why but i never get bitten.  Does anyone know of any natural remedies i could try (something i might have at home).

Went swimming for the first time this season. My nieces' pool only opens next weekend. But all the pools in my area are free this weekend and next. They one near me is always very cold.So we tried a new one. But it was freezing too.  My little niece didn't like it. But my older niece and I went swimming for around 2 1/2 hours. I will probably be sore tomorrow.

The temps this weekend have been sunny and 80s. Very nice.

We are watching Dustin Hoffman's film Quartet, but we will have to break off to attend a dinner date with a friend.

I loved this film! My opera friend Diana Montague said she did not believe Maggie Smith as a retired opera singer for a moment; she held her head wrong. I wouldn't know.

I met my Facebook friend Richard at Fred's on 83rd and Amsterdam, and five hours later we stopped talking and went our different directions. It was a lot of fun.

Nothing that has worked for me.  Try googling it, there are plenty out there.

I keep Benadryl spray to use right away.  I know people who say the best thing to use after any bite is a paste made from meat tenderizer.

Ceremony was OK. Taped "Pomp and Circumstance." Short speeches that said little ("Be a lifelong learner."). The reading of 240 or so names as we walked across the stage. Those of with a masters got our school shawl in the new school colors of orange and black plus a graduation medal. Diploma will be mailed. Then there were a pleasant reception afterward, which was basically a meal served on small plates.

I find it funny that I traveled from Texas to upstate New York for brisket. But it wasn't bad. It wasn't barbecue, though.

Thank you all for the good wishes.

Jane, I don't know if I'll do anything differently because I have the degree other than use the information I learned in future work and life.

I did receive a Facebook advertisement from an online university offering doctorates ...

I don't have the stamina for that right now.

Thank you to those who commneted on my tribute to Clark.  I just thought it was important that people know a little bit about Clark.  He was a wonderful man.

Good morning. I am up early just in case there is a little tap on my front door.

:)  Was there a little tap?

There was indeed. We went to the arboretum. Then in the afternoon DR Sandra and I saw The Gershwin's Porgy and Bess. I hear it is one of Elmore's favorites.

That's how it was when I met DR Kerry. We talked for hours.

Three of her friends came to help

Her menu was shepherd's pie,(with HP sauce in case anyone wanted some)  fish and chips (with Sarson's malt vinegar) and a trifle (made with Bird's custard)

You can't see from this angle but those flaps on the side  were shingled roof eaves.

that cake was terribly difficult for me --- I am more of a food assembler than an actual cook  but let me just say the person who wrote  "15 minutes prep 1 hour cook"  was a BALD FACED LIAR!!!
