FRIDAY's FAVE FIVE

The week started with typical November weather, cold, wet, grey, really mood lifting ! Fortunately we had our activity in the afternoon, we played a fun game, we had to smell at potty and find out what was in it.

That could be a mint smell or a special perfume or baked bread. After the third person who hadn't smelled anything, we finally looked at the expiry date and no wonder no one smelled anything, the potties were almost 10 years old and completely odorless! Of course that caused a big laughter and we continued talking and discussing other games.

I had changed my bank and had done something wrong when I tried to put the app in my smartphone. My card was blocked for 24 h. Fortunately I had another card and could do my shopping and pick up my medication at the pharmacy. When I came back I called the bank and asked what mistake I had done, it was really stupid, I had mixed up the code ! Now it works. 

As I was in the city center I thought I could say hello to my old neighbors. Which I did. They have the same apartment as I had before and there were no news at all, they are the only two who see each other every day, the others are working. In my "old" apartment lives a young couple, but they have never seen them ! It's the use to live 20 years side by side without knowing each other ! Crazy. I was happy when I returned into my castle found my friends in their coffee circle, laughing and chatting. I joined the company and finished my afternoon with them. 

The next day a movie was on the program. I didn't like the fact that it was a cartoon, after all, I didn't have any grandchildren with me who would be happy. It was an ancient Mexican film and so stupid that after 15 minutes I quietly sneaked out and went to my room. At four I was there again. Apparently no one liked the film, most of them didn't understand a thing, the others fell asleep and some did what I had done and came back for coffee. Finally Kim stopped the film after he also noticed that no one was watching anymore. The whole film should last 2 hours !! Apparently movies don't work that well, because or they are too difficult to understand or too childish and then it's difficult when you are 90 to concentrate on a movie which lasts so long. 

We still were locked in because of the awful weather, nevertheless we played Golf !! That was really funny and the balls flew in all directions, seldom in the hole ! 

"room" Golf

 Our nearly 100 year old won ! Was she proud ! I managed two balls and was second, probably I have to wait another 20 years for the 4th ball !
