Oct. 19- A hymn sing was held Monday afternoon with RuthAnn and Melissa. When they concluded with the songs, they enjoyed powdered donuts and rice krispy bars with those who joined in in the afternoon activity. Devotions were held in the chapel at 6 p.m. with Pastor Lucido. The residents then went to the activity room to enjoy bingo for the evening. The Lion’s Club were our hosts. The lucky blackout winners were Lois and Elaine. No bake cookies were served when the games were done.
Oct. 20- Tuesday morning, the health nurse and her helpers were here to administer flu shots and covid shots to those who wanted them. In the afternoon, we enjoyed the singing of Linda. Vera joined in on the fun. We enjoyed donuts from the Trewhella family after the performance.
Oct. 21- The community van took our shoppers downtown in the morning for their weekly shopping excursion. In the afternoon, the ladies from the First Lutheran Church were here to host bingo. Husband and wife team, Jim and RuthAnn ran the games and the bingo cart and served delicious Halloween frosted sugar cookies for the afternoon snack. Marian was the lucky blackout winner.
Oct. 22- Word and Communion was held in the chapel on Thursday morning. Exercises were done after the service. Thankful to being the lucky recipient of pumpkins from Wayne and Beth, we used an afternoon for painting them. Around the round table, we got on our painting gloves and proceeded to create some pretty amazing pumpkins. Mary made monster cookie bars to go along with the Halloween theme that were enjoyed after the activity was done. Our pumpkins now sit proudly on the big round table so that the kids who join us for trick or treating can see our projects and enjoy them. Deb visited her mother, Marian.
Oct. 23- Friday is Hair Day. Our volunteers were Judy and Karen. Bunky visited Don and Marie.
Oct. 24- Reading Hour was held following the noon meal. Jo shared her chocolate chip cookies with her listeners. The ladies (Tody, Marian, Elaine and Colleen) had a fun afternoon playing pinochle in the gathering room. Lots of giggling and amateur card playing made for a great Saturday afternoon activity amongst friends.
Oct. 25- Alyvia brought up communion to the chapel on Sunday morning. The kitchen served up a delicious Polish sausage and sauerkraut dinner for the residents.
Another month is ending. Daylight Savings Time is here and soon the snow will follow. Enjoy these Fall days.
Have a wonderful week!
