Class Reunion Today

Today is my 45th class reunion from high school. That is my senior picture above. Members of the class worked on a float for the Fireman's picnic parade taking place as I write this. This afternoon there will be the Fireman's picnic in the park, and then the class reunion actually begins at 4 this afternoon until 7:30. I had thought to be at the parade, but with the beating my knee took yesterday in the aerobic class, I opted to wait until 4 PM and just go to the reunion itself. It would be too much for me to try to get on the float, or walk around the park this afternoon. So I will be leaving around 3 PM. I have my camera in my purse ready to go, and for this occasion, I will even wear make-up, which I unpacked this morning, so I could find it easy enough later. Until then I will interact with you and hopefully clear out my notifications. Right now it's even doable for the first time in over a week. I also dropped my son at the airport this morning around 4 AM. He will be back next Saturday. Those are my plans for the day. What are you doing on this fine Saturday? Thanks for reading.

@crazyhorseladycx No and no. I don't have either epsom salts or witch hazel. Looks like I'm going to need to get some.

It sounds like you had a wonderful day yourself. I had a great time at the class reunion, thanks. The knee is still painful, but getting better.

You have not changed much apart from gaining some weight due to age. I would have recognized that is you even if you had not told me. And you are going for aerobics? I am the laziest one around..:(

Thank you for the compliment. I can't do the aerobics, too painful for my knee, so I'm just swimming for about two hours.

@CRK109 Yes it is. I'm contemplating going into a deep water class. It will help my knees and it will be good exercise. Though I'm spending at least an hour and a half to two hours in the pool every day.

We have class reunions every 5 years. I have bad arthritis in both knees. The one giving me most of the problem right now is the left and also the leg I had broken a year ago. I had broken it just below the knee, so that could be a factor in why it's so painful right now, or it could just be the heat combined with all that I'm doing with getting packed and moving.

@just4him we say that pretty much every day here how fast time is flying by and how short life really is. It's a good wake-up call to stop and smell the coffee (or is it roses )

@just4him yes, and it is already making me so irritated in making these questions because i had to select items that are actually learned by the students in school, and which their skills are practiced in the area. not exciting at all.
