It was a busy week and today is my day of rest and relaxation.

Biggest news for me is Monday on my way to line dancing I received a call that there was a puppy for me if I wanted her. And YES, I caved! I said I didn’t want a puppy, and I said I didn’t want a dog that needed to be groomed. And I said a lot of stuff, and it doesn’t matter when you fall in love! LOL. I bailed on line dancing and went to pick up our little girl.

MEET LULU! She is a Shiatzu and all of a pound, maybe 1 1/2 pounds. She is so sweet and loving and has turned our life upside down in the best way possible. My heart is full and she makes me laugh and I am absolutely THAT MOM with my fur baby! You will probably be hearing a lot about her for a long time!

As always, Tuesday nights are Juke Box Bingo. None of our table won any of the games but we always have a good time. It’s more about the music than the winning. Although winning IS nice.

Wednesday, we went to Disney’s Hoop-Dee-Doo Musical Revue with our friends John and Nancy. They have been telling us about it for a long time, and we finally were all four in the same place at the same time! It was a fun evening, dancing and singing and good clean fun at Disney’s Fort Wilderness. It is probably sacrilege to say but we are not big Disney fans and rarely go. This shows how much we love John and Nancy’s company. The musical review was everything you would expect and more. Dinner was included in the price and was served family style; food was good and there was plenty. (Friend chicken, ribs, mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, a nice salad and cole slaw. Oh, and really good corn bread! I love corn bread!

Show was corny but fun. No one sang Zip Pe De Do Da so I was happy! LOL! The musicians and entertainers were quite good actually. Lots of group participation too.

Big finale every table got washboard instruments and sang along. I couldn’t tell you what the song was but it was fun. Big smiles all around!

Busy week for sure! Work was busy too, listing appointments and lots of prayers for buyers! Our market is still flat and move in ready homes seem to be the ones selling. That will switch when we least expect it here, it always does!

FRIDAY NIGHT was a Tribute Band in the Whistle Stop Restaurant. And what a fun night it was. Classics Tribute Live was the name of the act, https://classictributeslive.com/classic-tributes-live, and they were fantastic. Our show was THE EAGLES and it did not disappoint. The show was sold out the first day tickets went on sale, and I think we all had high expectations. The band was a 6 piece, and their fee was high. I don’t know if our community really understands that the Civic Groups within the community donate funds to help make the tickets affordable to us retirees. I give a huge thank you to all the individuals and groups that contribute so the rest of the community can enjoy quality entertainment.

The “Eagles” played a nice first set and encouraged singing and dancing. They were personable and fun. They played all the familiar tunes and a few I truly did not know. So, I am a fan but not hard core like some. The second set was just as good, even better. The musicians changed instruments, switched places, different lead singers, everything to keep us guessing and entertained. I am not one to go to repeat shows but I think this one I would go to see again.

The band does other tributes, and I would love to see them with their tributes to CCR and the Doobie Brothers for sure. They do many others, but those would surely be highlights for me.

Saturday ended the week with a terrific night of trivia. Our Team, Know Nothings, did well. Last week we came in first and this week we came in second. We are always thrilled to place at all, because as our name says, we are the Know Nothings! We have had a lucky streak and hope it continues.

I’m working on another interview so stay tuned. Writing these interviews are tough work.

So, there you have it. A wonderful happy week, lots accomplished, work and play. Good friends and many blessings along the way.
