It is supper time, and I haven't yet posted my thoughts for today. The Thinker is reminding me to share some thoughts. Okay. Sue and I planned to have lunch together, but I decided to go down to our Circle@Crown Cafe early to have my breakfast when they opened at 8:00 a.m.
Alice McC. joined me at my table. When Sandy M. showed up, I invited her to sit with us because today's her birthday. Sue arrive a little before 11:00, as she had planned to do, and joined those of us already sitting there.
When I got a call from Sandra H. asking if I'd like to meet her in the Cafe (she lives in the neighborhood near here), I told her I was already in the Cafe, so come join us. She was coming to the Crown Center for a program that met at 1:00, but she had time to eat with us before it started.
So my friends from here and there just came and went all morning, and I ended up being in the Cafe with various people as they met each other and left for their own activities. Do you wonder how long I was in the Cafe? From 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. as those folks chatted and ate together.
When I finally headed home, after walking around the block (going the long way home to get in my steps, in other words), I ran into Dora H. sitting in the lobby and sat down to talk to her awhile. Other friends stopped to speak to us as they passed by us, like Alyssa with her dog Hazel, and Betty B. who sat down to talk.
I think I got in a good day's worth of socializing: Alice, Sandy, Sue, Sandra, Dora, Alyssa, Hazel (yes, dogs count), and Betty. And these don't count the ones we said hello to as they came and went through the lobby.
