I started this blog in 2009 to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 16 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. 6/16/24 Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

Time Flies When Having Fun!
Boy have the last three days flown by...all too quickly. Today, Marie and I went of on a small shopping excursion...two stores and an old fashioned soda fountain in the third. Marie had an ice cream cone and I had a chocolate malt. We both came away happy after the old fashioned soda fountain experience! The third place we went is a handmade crafts store associated with the John C. Campbell Folk School. I might have had a few things follow me home from that store...nothing very major, but will be fun to remember the trip with. We stopped on the way back to make reservations for 10 at an Italian Restaurant just down the road. Our number of 13 had dwindled to 10 after three of our group headed home earlier in the day. We got home in time to rest for a few minutes before heading off to eat. We all enjoyed our Italian dishes. I had baked ziti because I wanted to compare it with what I call "baked ziti" that I make! Mine has a few more layers, but basically the same. I did enjoy the meal...but most of all the fellowship! We came back to the hotel and one of the ladies had a game planned. We played that and then talked around the table. After a while folks started drifting back to their rooms. One friend and I sat downstairs a little longer and looked at photos of our families...and, then talked for a while longer. Now I am in my room facing repacking! This time no decisions to be made...just have to get it all back in! We will have breakfast in the morning and then get checked out and head off to Tullahoma. If all goes as planned, I will be blogging from home tomorrow night! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
