JUST CATCHING UP
With all our Brothers & Sister of Aerie #3296. The old saying is “No news is good news.” We all wish that day would come soon. We have all been taking the situation seriously for just over 3 weeks and will at least continue to until the end of the month. Well, it’s time to take a break from all the media.
For the time it takes you to read this edition of Nesters News… relax, let your hair down, have a few laughs and maybe a tall ‘drink’ might help.
Just to bring you up to date, the Trustees are happy to report the roof is finally complete after 3 months. In addition to the 2 air purifiers that were installed early March, Ocean Air installed 11 new air diffusers to get rid of the hot & cold spots in the bar and social rooms. Other repairs & maintenance are scheduled to be completed prior to our re-opening.
IMPORTANT NOTE: The Aerie & Auxiliary nominations WILL take place at the first meeting after we open …. At this time that date hopefully will be MAY 4th at which time YOU MUST ATTEND THE MEETING AT 7PM TO ACCEPT YOUR NOMINATION or send an email to your Aerie / Auxiliary Secretary. If an election is necessary, it will then take place on Monday, May 18th with more information to come. This means you still have time to consider taking a position as an Officer of the Aerie or Auxiliary.
This next week you will be receiving a dues reminder from the Grand Aerie. Even though we’re closed, PLEASE mail in your checks as for the Aerie members, I continue to come into the Aerie at least on Monday, Wednesday & Friday to process the payments & mail your cards immediately back to you!! For those who recently send in your checks, you may still get a reminder but just ignore it as the names were generated mid-March.
Are you hungry for J&K Café’s good food? Don’t worry … follow their Mobile Café on Facebook @ J&K’s Café to find out where in Charlotte County they’re parked to feed you. You can also call them at (941)921-2481. It’s worth the drive to get some terrific food. I had the Beef Tips over Pasta on Monday … DELICIOUS.
This past Monday I was met with a nice surprise as I walked up to the bar entrance door. Chris & Cindy Johnson had hung a poster saying “We Miss Our Eagles #3296 Friends” then wrote an additional note. If you’re getting cabin fever & on your way for a legitimate outing (grocery shopping, doctor, etc.) stop by the Aerie to add a note as they left a pen hanging on the sign for others to add notes of affection. Chris & Cindy, you both get the People Helping People award for helping us all to cope during these trying times.
Here’s what some of our members are doing to keeping their sanity. Pam is making calls to her coworkers to just check in, while Linda is reaching out on social media. Bob Wilson and Jersey Joe are having their own Top Chef Cookoff by sending each other pictures on their phone of what they’re cooking …. and drinking for the day. Carol took off to the mountains of South Carolina with her family.
And Chuck Weber is trying to determine how we know when we’re getting old. Here’s what he’s come up with so far …
You might be old if
Ø Everything hurts, and what doesn’t hurt, doesn’t work anyway.
Ø The gleam in your eyes is from the sun hitting your bifocals.
Ø You feel like you really hung one on the night before, and you were in bed asleep by eight.
Ø You get winded playing chess.
Ø Your children begin to look middle-aged.
Ø You begin to outlive enthusiasm.
Ø You know all the answers, but no one ever asks the questions.
Ø You look forward to a dull evening.
Ø Your mind makes contracts your body can’t meet.
Ø You set in a rocking chair and can’t get it started.
Ø Your knees buckle and your belt won’t.
Ø You’re 17 around the neck and 42 around the waist.
Ø Dialing long distance wears you out.
Ø You turn out the lights for economic reasons rather than romantic ones.
Ø You burn your midnight oil after 9:00 p.m.
Ø You sink your teeth into a steak and they stay there.
If you’re doing something interesting. or stupid … that you want to admit to, send me an email at foe3296@gmail.com for the next ‘Just Catching Up’ edition of Nesters News.
Well, just wanted to reach out to change up your day for a least a few minutes. Hopefully it brought a smile to your face and broke up your boredom.
Thought for the week … “Whiskey is a brilliant invention. One double and you start feeling single again!” ….. Jersey Joe
Have a SAFE, HAPPY and HEALTHY week ….. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Marty – Your Aerie Secretary
