Filling the Day

Today feels like there is less on, though we will be busy this morning.
Yesterday we started with a Market.  There were items that had been donated to us.  We had them on display.  We actually had four tables plus two with free clothing.  My thinking is it is Christmas time and most stuff is good quality, so it could be a very inexpensive way of purchasing quality fillers as Christmas presents.
We are having one more stall before Christmas.  Normally it would be two but the day we would normally have it we are having a dinner for the community.  They are great meals.
We are also having a Christmas dinner on Christmas day at church person’s place.  That again is for the community.  We held one at N3C last year.  Merril and I went to it.  It was well attended and a great feed.
After the market we went up to the Table Tennis club.  They were having their breakup and award night.  I have not been playing much but it is always good to go up and catch up with people. 
One couple we had not seen in ages.  She is from Japan and he from Ghana.  They had recently spent time in Japan.  I was fascinated to know that she has taken an alternative route with her health.  She has a form of cancer.  They both stayed at a health place in Japan.  There she learned that many in Japan have that type of ailment.  She was put on a 21 day fast.  He did 14 days water only fast.  They rave about the results.  I guess the fact that people live so long in Japan says something.  She was saying over there, health is very much in mind for the population.  No wonder they seem to live so long.
It was interesting she was told over there the particular cancer once contained is a “live with” thing rather than a “get rid of” thing.  Over here they wanted to operate and remove which in itself was fraught.  For me it is what ever works.  Their methodology has done wonders for them.
We were given club pins as life members and founding members.  They were 20 year pins.  Incredible to think the club has been going 20 years.  I still remember saying to the guy that started it (that attended the church I went to) “if you start it I will support you.”  So started a great adventure.
The rest of the day was not so adventurous but it was good.
