Today was a gathering at The Club to celebrate a couple of birthdays including my friend, Nancy W. The past few years we would meet at a nearby Brew House which had its pluses, but more minuses for some of us. One thing is they don't serve soda, and another is the seating is at hightops---most uncomfortable for those with back troubles. So, this year they chose The Club and for that, I rejoice!
Two of the three birthday celebrants were at our table, and once we ordered, the ladies got busy passing out the gifts. I was so impressed with the amount of apparent thought that they put into their gift shopping. The cards Nancy got were just about all themed around cats, since she is the cat lady of the group. Her gifts were right up her alley, chosen with her likes in mind, obviously carefully so. One of the ladies gave her a bracelet in a most beautifully decorated box, something her daughter does as a hobby. The box alone was a gift!
We sure enjoyed our time together and am glad to be included in this circle of friends. Nancy and these ladies all live on our property north of The Club and allow me to sit in on their Trivia team each month. At the table they were talking about how they've taken up canasta as a group, taking turns as hostess for it. Another lady had out of town guests and had a bounty of leftovers to be eaten up so everyone is going to her house for dinner tomorrow night. That works! Love this for Nancy and for all of them!
