Thurs 6 Dec

Happy St. Nick's Day! Had a nice time at the drug company dinner last night. We could order whatever we wanted from the regular menu. I had a cosmo to drink and rack of lamb for my entree. They also brought out plates of bruschetta with goat cheese and tomato and plates of fried calamari with remoulade sauce for the table before we ordered. There were also several dessert options offered, and they volunteered to pack them to go as most people were quite full. I had a very nice tiramisu. The speaker was one of our own docs, Anna Cothron, and I found her talk interesting. It was nicely informal as we were only a table of about 10-15. Toured Wellington Place as a possible assisted living for Grandma today. It is a nice location, just before the McDill bridge, and seems like a nice place. They will assess Grandma next week and let me know when they will have an opening. Had my hair cut and colored tonight. Sue was doing my eyebrow wax and dropped a fairly good-sized gob of hot wax on the bottom of my eyelid, effectively waxing my top lashes shut. It was interesting cleaning it off.
