MORE TIME IN SILVER SPRINGS, FLORIDA

Another week begins in Silver Springs, Florida.  March 7th Gary began his day with a walk in the park and I left him and went to my first TOPS meeting in this area.  Gary also had a TV antenna on the roof to repair with some new parts.
I chose the location for a TOPS meeting at the time of day I wanted, but when I got there and was greeted with hugs by big old men, I had reservations about that chapter. There is another closer chapter but it is in the evening.  I do not like evening chapters, so will have to think about whether I will stay with this morning one.  There were many women who arrived later who made the meeting much more enjoyable!  And I did have another loss, so it is coming off very slowly!
I do like morning walks because it is cooler. So I went out a couple times and took more pictures of landscaping.

I like to contemplate ideas for our lot in Zolfo Springs, Florida.  By the way, we did get a call from them the other day, telling us that there is a lot available to us.  So we have to wait for them to complete their appraisal and processing according to By-laws which could take a month.  But at least we know where we will be for our six months of winter 2019/2020.
I have been getting organized with pictures and materials to scrapbook our step-granddaughters wedding album.  Thus, today I am going to a scrapbooking group that I found in a community news letter in our area.  I am looking forward to that and am waiting for time to leave to attend that.  I am hoping that it is not a pressure sales for Creative Memories as I sure have enough of my own equipment and supplies.  We'll see if this six hour day is productive!!
We went to a craft and yard sale this morning in our park, but only bought a dollar pair of gloves for flower gardening!  We are getting much better at holding the purse strings tight!!
Our day of Thrift and Antique Shops this week was fun, and we did find things of interest.  Of course, we have to remember that we do not have room to transport anything back to Ohio!

Friend, Don, we thought of you as we checked
out the chairs and trunks that we saw!!

And Ben, we thought of you when we saw this chest of drawer advertising St. Paul, MN. Didn't you say you needed a chest?

I do need this in our condo!!
Not sure that I like the mirror on
the back. 

I did find a barrister bookcase, but will check around in Ohio for one as I want one in the condo to keep our photo albums and our Blog books from this past eleven years.  But I don't want to transport one from down here. Too much effort!!

Not much else going on this week, but Sunday looks to be a full day coming up.  After church we will go to an Art Gallery and then have an ice cream social here in the park when we get back.
Monday is Bingo and Tuesday is Karaoke here in the park.  So stay tuned to see if we do those or find other things to fill our week.
I really did not have much to relay to you today, but had time to kill before leaving for scrapbooking.  So stay tuned!!
And keep shoveling as your snow will soon be gone!!
