May 25

Sunny, warm day and darn car wouldn't start as I was ready to leave for therapy, so called Mark who was out and about.   He came and took me to Jim (therapist) and then checked out the battery and long story short...needed a new one which was still under warranty and replaced at no charge and no paperwork so I should be good to go!!

Back to therapy.........today was extremely painful and thought I would pass out a couple of times!   Jim gave me a few more exercises to do at home to try and move that arm (when it's bent at albow) forward and backward!    WHEW.......excruciating!!!!   But...that's the way it is!!!

Home to do a little laundry and watched the tree trimmer guys come and give one of our trees a big cleaning out of dead stuff and branches that were close to power lines, etc.   Three times within the past 6 weeks, we've lost large branches from this tree.   And $750 later, we have a finely trimmed tree!!!

I ran some errands before meeting the BBB Friends at CJ's for lunch.    We all played bridge (with our hubbies) for many years and now our main focus is "BABIES (grand), BOOKS and BRIDGE" (a distant third since several of us haven't kept up with it!)    After lunch we exchanged our books and took home a bag of more good reads till we meet again.   We missed you Holly!

So much fun to catch up with these gals....share our books, pictures, etc.

BBB Girls

AND....Mark has a plan for moving Catrina.   He's driving to Grand Rivers on Saturday and get things in order.   On Monday, our friend, Bill from TN and a long-time boater with many river travel experiences, will be Mark's crew and they plan to take off Monday afternoon.evening.   All of these plans are barring any more heavy rains, etc., etc.
