Big event today was the official Channing House Christmas Brunch lunch, to which I had invited sister-in-law Jean. I went down and picked her up at 11:30. Came back, she admired my balcony garden, then we joined Carolyn, Edie, and Susan who I had invited to my reserved table of 5. CH brunch featured mimosas, very interesting, their version was more persimmon juice with persimmon seeds floating in it — and fancy Eggs Benedict with salmon under the egg. It was a good group, 4 interesting and highly intelligent women, plus me.
After I took Jean home, I followed up on a tech squad call I should have handled a day earlier but forgot. Helped Bille with her email issues on an iPad.
I was just getting ready for a solitary supper when an acquaintance, Helen, a 9th floor resident, called. She had sent an invitation to me and a bunch of other people to share our sack suppers (it being a holiday, the dining room shut down at 4) in the 9th floor dining room. I had ignored it at the time, but now she was on the phone saying, come on up. There were four others there and we had a pleasant supper and chat.
