The month of January was not the best for snow birds this year in Florida. Florida had 19 inches of rain in January of 2016 and temp was in low 60s with lots of cloud. John’s hip caused him a lot of problems with the damp/cold weather and Judy chipped a filling in a tooth, she did make it home to Michigan to have a temporary crown and will get permanent crown when they return home. John played a round of golf on Friday the 5th and Friday evening and Saturday was in a lot of pain.
Bob and Sherry Kuhr celebrated Christmas and New Years with Rob and his family in Germany. They had a great time. Once home Sherry had shingles and the doctors were worried that they might go into her eyes; fortunately they did not. On Feb. 15 Sherry will be having a complete knee replacement; poor Bob had to take care of her once they returned from Germany and now he will be a caregiver again after knee surgery. Sherry hopes to be golfing in the spring.
This wraps up another trip down memory lane. I mentioned the winter Florida Golf Trip and as I was typing I thought of the first trip made with Nick and Cal to Arizona as well as the remaining trips to Georgia, Mississippi and many locations throughout Florida as well as the two outings that we shared with our “Brides”. They were fun. I mentioned about Jack Schaefer celebrating his birthday in 2006 with him mom. Am glad to say that here it is 2016 and she is 102 and still here celebrating Jack’s birthday. We had already had a lot of cold and snow already this year (2016) and us “older folds” can remember when we had no such thing as “snow days” and we lived with it. We just sucked it up. These memories along with all that we grew up with are our memories to share with each other as well as our children and grandchildren. Take the time to share with them now. Do not let them get lost. Until we see you again next month in print, the Good Lord willing, take care of one another.
