Celebrating a birthday

Friday morning at the Breakfast Club, my friend, whom I'll call "O", was giving me a little bit of business about all the outings I'd been on the previous week. She follows me on Facebook and marveled at my adventures and outings, asking if I ever ate at home. I assured her that of course I did eat at home, but often it was leftovers from the meals out. That morning we four ladies were joined by Bob, the same fellow who'd taken me to lunch the previous week. It was his birthday so he came over to have breakfast with us. He hadn't seen "O" since pool season ended and was glad to see her again.

Nancy W. was not going walking with the other two, Pat and O, after breakfast as she has been some yoga-style exercises to ease her aching back. I do my walking by going over to The Club and back again, several times a week. It was nice to have Bob join us and he seemed to like his breakfast from the buffet.

We would be seeing each other again that night for dinner as Bob, Nancy M., Bill, Justin, Nancy W., and I were going to have dinner at Koko's (I got to choose the restaurant!). It was Bill 'n Nancy's idea to do this, it being Bob's 70th, and I am so glad we did it. They all loved the place, the personal touches we got there, and already at the soup course, Bob was blown away by the place! Whew!, I was sweatin' it! 

This is something like what Justin ordered for his meal at Koko's on Friday night

While we were there, Nancy W. was telling about her sore leg, which she'd mentioned already at breakfast. At first she thought it was eczema acting up but Saturday morning she called to let me know that she'd been admitted to the hospital with cellulitis. Oh, for goodness sake! 

As it turned out, she didn't have to stay overnight, after she made cross-my-heart promises to take the medication and do everything they told her to do, at home. She'd had an IV of antibiotics to get her started and she was keeping the sore leg elevated as ordered. I am glad she decided to see the "Doc in a Box" as she referred to the walk-in clinic and got the attention needed right away. Cellulitis is nothing to mess around with.
