Audrey: I’m having a good time with my books. I always get around to everything that’s happening, bingo, etc. There is always something going on in this building. Old friends now are all here! We all get to talk in the dining room. Everything is lovely here. We have a lot of reminiscing to do! Everything is going along fine. Vivian, my neighbor, is out most of the time with her walker. I’m just reading and packing and trying to get rid of paper. I hate to throw out things for fear I’ll throw out something I need. I have some books from the library. I’ve told you that we need to read a book three or four times to really understand it, so that is what I am doing.  There is just a little snow here now.
