Joan won the first two Bingo games at night, and even though she was quite surprised, she also joined in the celebration, applauding for herself. Joan’s CD Player isn’t hooked up in her room yet, the Mansion maintenance  staff is all jammed up, they’ll hopefully get to it on Monday.

I danced with Joan in the hallway tonight, we did a waltz. She’s a fine dancer, she deserves better than me. Someone – either me, Maria or a Mansion volunteer, our friend Susan Popper, sits alongside Joanie to keep an eye on her board. A lucky night for Joan.
