Jean In the Middle

What a Sad but Also Happy week

14Years

of Friendship With Jean A real lady

We Started

with a group of girls having monthly luncheons

taking turns at one and an others homes.
We discovered a special interest in stitching so a group was started.

Sharing ideas of many projects...
Tuesday our last day

stitching

with Jean...

Here you can see Jean displaying her Tea Pot Hand Bags

Margret made this beautiful

T.V.

remote Carrier

out of old jeans ..

Our sewing days around the table..... solved problems of the world and

each others....

Our Medication was taken home which was laughter ...

tears would just run down our faces....

Thursday

we had High Tea
and that's when we all felt so sad....

Jean has a unit opposite

Charlestown Square

(Newcastle)

Which I believe

twice the size of

Robina

(Gold Coast)

So I can see Jean each morning

looking for bargains in the shops....

Jean said the guest room will be ready.....

Under the unit block is a coffee shop

What more could you need.

Well Jean thank you so much for the laughs

And special Friendship

Lovely High Tea

Every shop having sales...School Holidays not large crowds really to be seen .....

Lincraft had a great sale in the wool section...

I must say they have the best display of wool ...

Every time I visit Brisbane that section is 1st on my Stops ....

We decided to have a early lunch....

So off to the original Shingle Inn...

Looking around for a seat a elderly lady had room at her table ....I ask if it was o.k. for us to sit with her...of Course Darling was her answer...Having such a

great conversation...

Her name was Ivy ...and next month she will be having her 93rd birthday...

Amazing shopping once a week at her age ...

In the middle of the city....She needed to go

to Woolworth's...So she ask if we could mind her parcels .....

I felt very privilege for Ivy to ask....As we all live

in a not so nice World...

From time to time.....She trusted us...

We Headed over to David Jones Sales once again...

They have a wonderful shoe display....

Walking up the Mall we decided we needed chocolate from
