SEPTEMBER RECAP

 September started hot, then it got cooler, then it ended hot again.

September started with Sonia's ongoing problem. I had talks with Sonia, then with Nuri and Monica, and I exchanged texts with Eric and Nicole. There have been accusations of lying back and forth. Sonia doesn't seem to think she has a problem other than depression. But it is more than that. 

Mia had a birthday September 15. She had a big party at her special hotel with almost all her family and friends. She turned 70 years old.

September 18, Lizzie and I went to the Long Beach Brewing Company, and stayed for the sunset.

September 23, my financial advisor came with a list of my investments. It looks good.

              September 24, marked the 60th Anniversary of meeting Marvin in Barcelona. 

                                      9-24-64 - Plaza Catalunya - George Lopez and Marvin

Lizzie and I celebrated by going to Happy Hour at El Torito Grill in Brea. It was a favorite of Marvin and me. Afterwards, we went to the Cheesecake Factory for some delicious cake!

September 26, I bought a cool pair of red slip-ins at Skechers. Lizzie went to LM Theater.

September 27, Lizzie had a COVID booster and a flu shot. I didn't go because I had a cold.

September 30, after going to Home Depot, I felt pain in my left leg, very painful, it was hard to walk. I didn't fall or hit anything but the pain was bad :(   We'll see how it feels tomorrow.

AUGUST RECAP

 

      Summer is almost over, and it has gone by so quickly...and just like that, it's September again.

August was a hot month!

Here's some August happenings:

I watched the Olympics every day from start to finish. I liked it was in Paris. The  beginning was chaotic and the end was a bit of a let down, but the games themselves were fun!

August 15 was Sandy and Marty's 31st wedding Anniversary. Cheers!

August 16, Lizzie and I went for our evening walk at the Fullerton Arboretum, always a lovely stroll!

August 17, the side door needs replacement, going to Home Depot and pricing it gave me a headache!

This  is my Summer mantel decorations
