The Community Review of Bridgetown

By -
At Rlabs class on a Saturday morning we have lots of laughter and fun. There we do our social media course. Rlabs had no electricity,so we told to take to streets to do a review on the senior citizens . Off we went to something which I seldom do is to walk but I really enjoyed the walk,and will do it again. The community in Bridgetown we took on was very new to me so I didn't know what to expect. As we walked I felt very safe because the people were very friendly. The first lady I met standing at her gate was just enjoying the fresh air and sunlight, her name was Mrs Hammer and I asked her how she liked her stay in the community and she replied she had two kids and reared them all by herself. They are grown-ups today and doing well for themselves, had no problems with the neighbors, people or the area, just happy for having God in her life. She also mentioned enjoying her retirement and would like to meet up again with me. We ended up chatting about our children, church, husbands and what a great God we serve and from this to that and she enjoyed the chat we had." Yes it was good chatting to a senior citizen."

Next to the Impact Centre was an open field with a sign that say NO DUMPING, the fence with broken and the field is used as dumping ground.why cant the people be proud of their area.If the area is clean then there will be less illnesses.We were walking further down the road we came to a garage and met Grant September owner of NADEENS Spray painter.If you want to have your car sprayed, he is on corner of Cornflower and Valk Roads at the garage.

My RLabs Mom's Journey

Hi all, I am Salma Richards,a parent with 3 adult children. I am told I am a chatterbox,empathetic and determined{just a bit slower}. My interests are reading,gardening,home crafts and the outdoors.It took an accident that happened 16 years ago to make me realize that the choices we make will determine the quality of life we will lead.It was, and is a long, hard road to get to where I am today. Imagine,having to learn to write,walk,remember,eat,cook,dress and just about everything we teach a toddler to do, well it took me 16 long,trying and very difficult years to become the person I am today! I have now realized it's my Creators mercy at giving me a real second chance at life .I now try not to offend  people and also to be more tolerant because my family and friends had the patience to guide and teach me simple things that you would take for granted.Thank you once again to RLabs facilitators and all who in the past and present taught,helped and guided me.MWAH.

Good afternoon world on a lighter note,on wednesday we took our seniors around the peninsula.Our first stop was Sea Point opposite the SABC offices. Where our seniors enjoyed a snack.thereafter we went to Hout Bay where they stretched a bit.Some of our seniors interacted with the coons.Our aunty Ellen,Vicky Jonck and Freda Davids enjoyed dancing with the coons.We then went back to Maidens Cove where we served them lunch.After lunch we served them fruit and some doughnuts and juice.We then boarded the busses at 3.05 and was taken on the beach road for some more sightseeing.when we got back to the centre,our seniors were all handed a gift before they went to their respective homes.What an awesome experience.
