We had one of the biggest turnouts for dinner downstairs we've had since I've been here. No food is served in these buildings except for when we have potlucks and/or holiday meals. I went downstairs at 3:30 and came back up at 6:15 p.m.
After some of the people left, one of the gals, Amy, told the ones that were left - there were between 15 & 20 of us - to stay and we would sing Christmas carols - without any music. What a hilarious time we had because everyone seemed to be making their own music. We all laughed until we were silly but sure helped digest our meal. We did end on a serious note by singing Silent Night in unison. Great afternoon with so much laughing and food.
As you might be able to tell, I love living here because there are so many neat people and each time I go for a get together, I meet more people than I already knew. Some lady wanted someone to take pictures with her camera (it was new to her with only 1 megapixel) and she couldn't get any takers so I volunteered. I took lots of pictures with her camera and wished I would have brought mine with me.
