i have started to go to the senior center. i was getting meals on wheels for 6 dollars. my parent's said i should go to the senior center. so we did well they was hear and after they left i am still going. i get the same meal as my meal on wheels as the same company provides it. i only have to pay 2.50 dollars as the city of urbandale makes up the difference. also they have pie ever thursday something you don't get with meals on wheels. one of the seniors makes pie. she also makes sugar free so us diebetics can have pie also. they have senior abocis i might give that a try. they play bridge everday. i don't know how to play bridge so doubt that i will try that. once a month they have a potluck. it for july is this tuesday. i am going to take potal salad i will get it at mama hyvee. i went back to my vietnam veterns group we discuss how to prepare for the fourth of july it is a bad holiday for us vietnam veters. it sounds like gunfire. i found out that i am not the only one who jumps when the firecrackers and fireworks go off. other are back in nam like i am. it helps to prepare yourself for what is comming. my favorit holiday as a kid his one that i hate know. i have started to take green tea have loss a lot of weight on it and my blood sugars have been better my doctor told me to keep on taking it as it is good for lossing weight and many different medical problems. he said if i keep on thaking it he will be able to get me off my insulin and pills.

    Awesome dude! The more pills you can get off the better. And off the insulin, that's a terrific goal to work for. Here's hoping you can get past all the roadblocks. The sound of the 4th isn't so bad for me, but if they have like a tribute or a service or something like memorial day, the taps just tears me up. Good luck & I'll keep praying for you.
