1.I admired the window shades a friend had in her apartment. This is her story. "I was in the shade store and asked the price of some shades. The salesperson told me the price and added that they would last forever. I saw another sample that I liked which was much cheaper. The sales person discourage me from buying them because they would only last 10 years! Guess which I bought."
2. A woman I barely knew made a dinner date with me because our grandchildren knew each other. She spent all dinner bragging about the grandchild. Such a bore.
3. My friend's middle aged son from out of town came to visit. She told me that they aways have great outings when he visits. I asked her where she had him take her this time. "We went to a 'pot' shop," (this is Colorado you know).
4. As we older ones struggle to master technology challenges--I heard this which I like. "We who are older than 60 are ' digital immigrants" while those younger are "digital natives."
5.Yesterday all the Comcast lines were out in the neighborhood--meaning computer, TV and most telephones. When I found my computer was no longer online I called the concierge to see what the problem was. I told her I had two things to ask her. When she answered about the power outage I next asked her the phone number of a resident. She gave me the number and added, "You can't call her." I thought that rather strange. "Why?" I asked. "Because the power is out!" Of course!!
