Sun and Sunglasses! Yes, Summer has arrived, and the Lady-Links celebrated the arrival of summer by making a cute “sun with sunglasses” craft for our dear friends. These were packaged with an appropriate label…a sun with sunglasses, of course….and delivered with lots of laughter about how to prepare for the hot days ahead! We laugh because there’s no real way to prepare for Texas heat! Take a look at some pictures taken last summer when the Lady-Links got together outside with masks and with social distancing to make a summer craft to send to our dear friends. (We weren’t allowed to meet inside due to COVID regulations). Remember those days?
Thankfully, we are past the COVID restrictions, and could meet inside this year with plenty of air conditioning to prepare and package the craft.
Prior to COVID, the Lady-Links found many opportunities in the past to visit with our dear friends while making summertime crafts. Celebrating the seasons, even a hot one, is something we always do.
So…put on those sunglasses and sunscreen, and step outside (for a few minutes) and be inspired to be the “sunshine” in the life of your friend or loved one in cognitive decline. Have a conversation about what everyone did when we were kids to keep cool in the summer heat. You’ll stir up some memories in each of your lives which can lead to a great time of sharing. Just be sure to do your sharing in the air conditioning!!!!
