So this week is my birthday (February 21). As is “tradition” on the Helman/Scherr sides of my family, I used to share it my Uncles Bob and Larry and now I share it with Larry’s great-granddaughter Greta who just turned three. I really wanted to make a big deal about this birthday for several reasons but life is slowing me down.
It’s been a somewhat uneventful year for us. We “float” between our three homes, visiting friends and family and traveling. We took two cruises this past year, one to the southern Caribbean and one to the Baltic Sea. I love showing off my pictures so see one of the links attached for more pictures or go to www.gsfriedman.com if you are reading a paper copy of this greeting. Photo Link I must publicly thank Debbi Berke for all her help by visiting in June and coming with us on the cruise.
If you understand my “knurdy” riddles (or even if you don’t) please join us for an afternoon of visiting and catching up (and eating).
I’m showing some scenery photos at a Festival of Art ( yes, me and “art” don’t normally appear together ). If you are near Boynton Beach stop in at Valencia Shores Friday 430-9 or Saturday 10-4. Tell the gate that you are going to festival of art and ask for directions to clubhouse. Valencia Shores in on Lyons Rd, west of turnpike between Boynton Beach Blvd and Hypoluxo
Hello
That conversation seems to repeat with almost every call. If you asked me 2-3 years ago if I’d be splitting my time between not two, but three houses and retired at 58 I would have thought you crazy, but that’s been our life the past two years, going between homes in Caton, NY, Emerald Green, Rock Hill, NY and Valencia Shores, Lake Worth, FL
In 2016 we learned a new term, snowflakes. Unlike snowbirds who migrate south for the winter; snowflakes never stay long in one place. And so every few weeks we were sleeping on essentially the same mattress, but at different homes. We’ve managed to work our travels around theater subscriptions and other shows, support group meetings and other events.
