Musings from a Summersetter

OK, so I'm a holdout on doing a blog. I thought, "What can I say that's interesting about a senior citizen living in an 'active' adult community?" But here I am, and we'll see.

HOLIDAY TIME

Since it's the HOLIDAY season, Summerset Singers is getting ready for it's Christmas Concerts at various venues around Brentwood. I was a total failure at singing solos as a member of the chorus, but one of our members asked me if I'd like to do a Chanukah song with him this year. I'll just tell you we're working on it. I have a couple of weeks until we actually try it in front of an audience. I'm also in charge of the Christmas party. I've found a caterer and the members decorate their own tables, so some of the work is done. We have a bar and bartenders. Being Jewish, I don't have any Christmas decorations at hand, so I may have to borrow some. 

THIS IS A BAD TIME FOR A DIET

As many of you know, B.J. and I have been doing Jenny Craig for a while now.  I thought I might keep you posted on how we're doing as an incentive to stay focused.  We've both lost weight; in fact 50 pounds for him and 30 for me.  But we've been doing this for some time now, and during vacations we have gained a few pounds back and are working on losing those, plus the rest that we've committed to.  So in the future, you may see me talk about that.  Of course the holidays aren't the best time to be dieting, but I hope that blogging about it will keep me on track.

So stay tuned, and let me know what you think.
