SherryeB's Journal, 25 May 2022

Yesterday I planted the rest of the bulbs in the garden & later spritzed everything with some deer repellant. I think they nibbled on a pot of impatiens so I wanted to protect everything after the rain.

Today Hubby & I had an appointment at the optometrist. The arm broke off my glasses last week & Hubby was able to do a temporary repair til I can order new ones.

Book Club tonight. We had good discussion about the book. It also gave us opportunity to talk about the shooting in Texas. It is so disturbing. I ended up staying at my friend's that hosted late so we could talk some more.

I also got the news that my friend, (next door neighbor) that is a member of our Book Club lost her son to cancer yesterday morning. She & her husband had last been able to visit him in March 2020 just before the Covid shutdown. He was a retired Military Veteran & lived in the Philippines with his wife & young son. My friend was recuperating from a broken shoulder & hadn't been able to travel to see him.

Makes you realize how fragile life can be.

144.6 lb Lost so far: 28.2 lb.    Still to go: 9.6 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.
