NOBODY ASKED ME BUT… AN APOLOGY by Mel Clapman The staff of The Pulse wishes to apologize to …The dumbest thing I ever bought was a 2020 Barbara and Bernie Sigman for omitting their photo in planner. the “He Said-She Said” article in the November issue. …2019: Stay away from negative people. 2020: Stay Here they are. away from positive people. …The world has turned upside down. Old folks are sneaking out of the house and their kids are yelling at them to stay indoors! …This morning I saw a neighbor talking to her dog. It was obvious she thought her dog understood her. I came into my house and told my cat. We laughed a lot. ….Does anyone know if we can take showers yet or should we just keep washing our hands? …This virus has done what no woman has been able to do. Cancel sports, shut down all bars and keep men at home! …I need to practice social-distancing from the refrigerator. …Appropriate analogy. “The curve is flattening so we can start lifting restrictions now” is like saying “The parachute has slowed our rate of descent, so we can take it off now.” …Never in a million years could I have imagined I would go up to a bank teller wearing a mask and ask for money.

TENNIS SOCIAL CLUB by Sharon Dorfman

Hello fellow Palm Greeners. As we all approach the beautiful holidays, the greatest gift you can give someone is the gift of love and acceptance. As human beings we all need to be loved and accepted. With someone in our corner we feel that nothing is impossible. No matter how you participate in the holiday celebrations, a kind word is always needed. You can criticize someone but always in a gentle, kind and politely positive manner. In closing I wish you all a very healthy holiday season and a joyous new year. December 2020 11

WE CARE

As the name of our organization implies we care for our friends and neighbors in Palm Greens to make sure that all their needs for being healthy are being taken care of. We transport our residents and their guests to medical facilities, and we provide walkers, canes, and wheelchairs when they are in need. To be able to do all that we have to do for our resident and their guests, we always are in need of volunteers. Without volunteers, any organization would have to hire people to do the job that is done now in Palm Greens. Palm Greens is very fortunate that there are many volunteer that staff all our clubs, and staff our boards and they do so without any compensation, otherwise if we have to pay for this kind of service that the volunteers do, our maintenance would be triple what it is today. In case any residents are in need of our servicers, please call 495-0878 which is monitored by one of our volunteers who gives the information to another volunteer. Please give us 24 hours and leave your name and a telephone number where we can reach you. 20 Palm Greens Pulse CONDO 2... (continued from page 4) to notice the pleasant things that surround us.
