Back to normal

I can put up with the parts of having a cold as long as I can breathe through my nose at least partially. But when you become a total " mouth-breather" it is just too much. All day Saturday and a good part of Sunday I was a total mouth-breather. Thankfully Butch reminded me to get started on Zicam right away and I did. We use the nasal swabs and to be sure I can get them without checking out every store in a fifty-mile radius I order them online. I am happy to say they once again shortened my cold. You may not think they do any good as you are using them but shortening a cold from 7 days to 3 is a win in my book.
We had 5 teams at Trivia last night. The only complaint was the acoustics in the Sunrise Room. The Sunrise room and the Sunset Room remind me of a greenhouse with lots of glass and curved at the top in the same way a greenhouse is curved. The result is sounds are accentuated. The noise level is high with normal conversation and if you add a bit of enthusiasm over a win it becomes unbearable. I have talked to the activity director and she is working on a solution. I will let you know the results.

I understand the trivia in Jefferson will now be at the casino. They must have outgrown the space at the Market Grille. I know it was always crowded on Thursday nights and regular food patrons could not find a place to sit.
Changes are always happening. Some good and some not so good. We are left with learning to roll with the punches or being very grateful. Sometimes both at the same time. Till next time...
