New Year’s Eve 2023

 We just came from the Perriello New Year’s Eve Party. There was plenty of food for adults and children. I ate two slices  of roast beef and lots of cookies. 

Linda had plenty of food and people to serve and clean up. The teenagers were in an upstairs room. I went there for the last year party but not this one. The house is very large and decorated with lovely furniture. The Christmas decorations were spectacular. They were everywhere;  on book shelves, on tables on the fire place mantles. I should have taken pictures. If we are invited next year I will. I Sat with Sonia Smith who has lots of money according to Rick. She donates her money to various causes.  I told her about teaching at Jackson Via when  it was opened in 1969??? 

Her personal story was: She told me she was 64 and talked about balance. I told her I was 81. She was surprised. 

Tonight we go to Walker’s house. Joseph is going to serve us a French meal. I have been trying to learn some French words and phrases and I Dress like a Frenchman.

Two of my children were at the party.  Walker and Catherine Bradley. She looked lovely in a red dress. All three of Walker’s children were there. Bess's teacher was there but I did not know her. 

The decorations were impressive. Many people I talked to commented on them. I also talked to the president of the Board of Supervisors.Anne Mallick. 

Paige’s husband took a picture of us at the end of the party. He is a doctor and I was impresses at how intelligent he was. He talked about AI WHICH IS A FAVORITE TOPIC OF CONVERSATION.No one understands it. We all want to learn.
