Yesterday my husband and I visited a church fairly close to our home in Long Beach called Bethany Church. I know a number of people who are members of this church. This church is much larger in membership than the one I attend. They have two worship services in the morning. One is "traditional" for those of us who prefer choirs and more hymns. The other service which is later in the morning is "contemporary" and they have a band with drums and they lead the congregation in singing more of the up to date current day choruses. Either one would be fine with me but Paul prefers a choir over drums. We also attended the Bible Class which met after the service called Christian Heirs. It was OK but not my cup of tea. It was more for the older folks.

Today I went to have my teeth cleaned. I go to the same dentist as my friend Jan. You can read about her experience there in this blog:

Jan's dental experience

My experience was the same ... I also had the hot hand treatment and I watched Animal Planet on the TV screen on the ceiling. Also, I did take the free cookie with me which I enjoyed after lunch.

From there I went to the Disney Character Warehouse in Fullerton. This is a great place. It is a clearing house for unsold, out of date, or over stocked items from the Disney Resort. They also sometimes have things from Disneyworld there. I have gotten so many neat things at really great prices there over the last few years! Next week sometime I will be posting a picture of my brother and myself in matching shirts I got there. His birthday is next Monday and we will be at our own Disneyland 50th anniversary on that date; his birthday and 50 years ago our parents took us to Disneyland when it opened to the public. But more on that next week. Have to keep you coming back!
