Dec 2nd to 4th - Mesa

Dec 2nd – Mon
Terry took Gloria for her chemo treatment as Dennis is attending a computer class.  We went for a late breakfast at the Wildberry restaurant before shopping for groceries.  Terry left at 12:30 to go for a motorcycle ride with Allen who was riding Dianne’s CanAm.  This left me free to putter around getting ready for company for dinner.  Gloria came over and we had a nice chat.
Not too long after Terry got back, Dennis & Gloria came by with drinks in hand so we joined them outside for a cocktail.  Terri & Bev came over followed shortly by Ron & Brian.
It cooled down so the ladies joined me inside while I put together the seafood lasagna.  Dennis & Gloria headed home and the others were our guests for dinner.
We had a wonderful evening.  The food turned out great and conversation flowed nonstop.

Dec 3rd – Tues
I went to Total Wine with Terri while Terry cussed at Candy Crush.  We had lunch when I got back and it seemed like no time before we were heading to the courtyard to listen to music & dance.  I came home early to get dinner in the oven so we wouldn’t eat and immediately go to line dance lessons.
Tonight we reviewed 4 line dances and learned another.  When we go early and dance for 1 ½ hours we get quite a bit of exercise.  Terri, Stella & Phyllis are all going and doing well.

Dec 4th – Wed
Terry had to put up the awning (removing rope lights first) and cover the motorcycle as wind & showers are forecast.  The rain started shortly after he finished.
Trish came over to chat a bit and say goodbye as she is leaving until Jan 15th.  She is going to Brandon, Manitoba to visit her aunt and then to Calgary to visit her friend Lynn who we met in Desert Hot Springs.  Moe will fly from here to Calgary and they will both fly to Kamloops.  Chuck & Echo popped in to see if we wanted to join them & Moe for dinner tomorrow but we have other plans.
After a late breakfast, we decided that the weather called for a trip to a casino.  We stopped on the way to buy expensive, “custom” windshield wipers as one side was falling apart.  We went to Ft. McDowell and played a long time before calling it quits.
I had leftovers again for dinner (are you wondering when I made the originals?) and we had a quiet evening.
