I took a shell to Bev as they are traveling back to Iowa. I played pickle ball at 8. At 9:45 we took Nancy to the podiatrist. She contacted a wound doctor for an appointment on Tuesday next week. The doctor thinks that Nancy might heal better with a caste to keep the weight off the wound. On the way home we stopped and got Mexican food from the corner yellow building and bolos from the bakery. We rested, I went to the card room to work on puzzles, At 4 we went to Bransons.
That was Merle's rendition on what Mom said when Merle, Craig, and a couple others were in a heated discussion of politics. "That will be enough now." Then silence ... The boys were silent. Mom had spoken.... The boys were silent. "That will be enough now."
I played a couple games of PB at 8. Then I came home to work on BSF. Great News!!! Nancy got a check for the Toyota. AND she got a phone call that said the money the she got scammed earlier last fall IS RETURNED!!!! Hallelujah!!! Now she is having fun trying to decide who to take to Joe's Oyster Bar. Denny and Arlen were in charge of horse races at 3. Home. Nancy went to play Joker.
Pickleball at 8. Denny was spray8ng off the rest of the trailer. Girl's golf 10:30-3. Quick run to $1 Tueaday with Gail and Arlen. Merle and Bev had a fun meal at the hall. About 25 of us there. 'Twas so nice to have a get together with friends before they leave Thursday morning. At home I made invitations for sister lunch.
I didn't sleep well, coffee and toast,bacon,egg on the deck and felt bad while I played PB. I left and went to get my bike at Kathy's. I went home and was on my phone and was late for tourney. Uffda!! Alan and I won the first game, but lost the second against Bruce and Roger. I went back home and worked on class reunion
Up for devo. and I hope to see my little tiny plants reappeared as I watered them and got them out of the 80 degree sun. Please Lord! So thankful the Jane at Prairie Pedlar is growing lisianthus for me. Uffda!! We went to the beach, Then to a treasure Hunt back at the park that Nancy helped with planning. Gail made me brownies. Kathy brought us pizza and ice cream cake after treasure hunt. My partner was Lorrie.
Up and couldn't get back to sleep. Wait over 50. bummer. I rode with Gail to yoga with Leann. At home Denny started spraying the trailer. I worked on BSF. I sunned on the deck. Bruce and Denny fished some on the dock. At 4 we went to the Mystery Dinner. It was nice. Plants make me sad, the heat killed them as I brought them out and forgot to cover the container.
I spent the early day at home. It rained, I realized I had done the wrong lesson for BSF, Uffda!! So I took my time and did Lesson 21, getting done a half an hour before the zoom meeting. I had trouble connecting, but I did join Cherry's BSF international group. Yes!!! And then Cherry couldn't get connected, Uffda!! It was good to be there with them studying the book of John from 12-1. Lord, guide me. I read in the sun of the deck in the afternoon. At 4 we headed to the Charo day happy hour with Kathy, Greg, Dan, Roberta, Leann, Karen, Royal. Fun night. I loved the street tacos!!!
Poem from Phillip:
Slowness: A Prayer An invitation to slowness.That's what this is.
Treelike in stature and shade. Enjoying the sunshine for a whole afternoon. The vocation of treeness. Rooted trust and branched accommodation. A patience. Aches and echoes of eternity set within. Belonging to the soil and weather of a place. Speaking the dialects of quiet whispers and birdsong. Some think it an invitation to hurry. To afternoons of efficiency and skill. And often enough my heart tells me the same. But the trees remind me of a different story. An eternal song. And I am not the Singer. And I can enjoy the sunshine. And the song. |
I went to Pickleball at 8. Then to visit Fay. I worked with Kathy on a puzzle. Denny and I made a Walmart Run. I started typing info from Class reunion. The Hall was all set to go, I came home and made enchiladas and Asian Salad for supper. Nancy and I went to come and go for Nancy Davis. Reals were on the deck with Schrums when we got back. We ate the food I had prepared. Sweet time one the deck.
Denny left at 7 for fishing. I went to yoga at8. Then played some pickleball. Bev Gail and I spent an hour at BlackFriday$1 Wednesday and left the store without getting anything because the check out line was too slow. Life. We dropped Gai at 4 Seasons and drove to the beach. Bev brought coffee, she walked the beach for about an hour, I sat in the sun. The guys did not get any fish. We made it home for the baby shower at the hall. Fun time in the park. We came home for naps.
I played Pickleball. Denny went to wash the car and then we drove to get the oil changed. I worked on BSF on the laptop. I went to Yoga at 2. Then Gail, Bev, and Nancy and I set out baby pictures in the Hall for the baby shower. Denny and ii sat in the sun on deck. Denny grilled filet steaks. I invited Amy and Kevin for supper tomorrow. Denny got stuff ready for fishing tomorrow morning. I unwrapped my indigo fabric.
We wee quiet around in the morning. At 11 we drove to ViCC Denny took pictures of the golfers. I can't remember the last time I played so poorly. I played with Gail, Bruce and Arlen. Afterwards people came to Bruces to eat.
I called Cherry M. and had a really nice visit. Lord, may it work out for me to go to her Bible Study Fellowship. Nancy and I went to an art class on Indigo fabric on the island. The teacher served us a light supper. When we got home Denny was playing cards. Now that's a strange happening. Lord, help stress. There is a four seasons golf tourney tomorrow at VICC. We are letting the dye set on the fabric until tomorrow. I wonder how they will turn out????? It was a tough night. I didn't sleep very well. Uffda!!! Prayers are always needed.
Slow morning. We left about 9:30 to go get Nancy's circulation checked. They said that her arteries were very good. There was nothing they couple do to help the wound on her foot heal faster. Bruce got fish from Gordon's for us for lunch. The family sat under the "Big top" and ate. Finchers handed us some of their leftovers. Arlan and Denny went shopping. I started to call classmates.
Up for pickleball at 8. Bruce and Gail got third at Golden Olympics. He had it very organized for us. The rest went to Bridge, Denny and I went to the pool in then later afternoon. I got a package from Bill with the names of classmates that I need to contact for our class reunion. I called Craig to see about using the pond for June 28-29. He is in LosVegas and will be home on Tuesday. We went to Happy hour for the Valentine dinner/dance at 4 and then stayed at the hall until the dance was over at 10.
Denny left for fishing with Merle, Bruce, Mike and Brad. I played 2 games of pickleball, and then picked up Bev and Joyce about 9. We stopped at Texas Thrift, Port Isabel, and then spent most of the morning at Isla Blanca. We had coffee on the boardwalk and then walked to the jetty. It was a great beach fix for me. We met the fishermen at Vivas and watched a guy clean 25 sheephead. They caught their limit. We had some grilled, blackened, and fried. Nancy, Jean and Arlen joined us. I drove the gals home. Nancy's home health care nurse came to change her bandage. We watched some tv and headed to bed.
Denny was up early to get ready to raise the trailer and level the refrigerator area in the kitchen. I didn't go to yoga, I waited ... got to play after watching 2 games of pickleball. I was 5th in the line, so I went home to check on the progress of the trailer leveling. When I got back to the PB court, my paddle was at the end of 4 paddles in front of me. I was moved back because 2 games got done ahead of me and I was not there to play, so I got moved to the back. I decided not to wait and went to visit Bev. Nice time with Bev before I headed home. Jean and I went to BlackTuesday$1. Denny drove Nancy and me to her appointment. The doctor seemed very good. and proactive treating testing and monitoring. She set up a home health care nurse to come in everyday, weekly appointments with her, and evaluation by pulmonary team. We got home for supper with Bransons.
Happy birthday sweet girl!!! You bring smiles to our faces. I love all yourWe are so thankful that God put you in our lives. Keep doing your best for Jesus!!
Chilly morning at the park. I was up early, like always. Bruce didn't stop, must be a change unschedule with Mike S. here. I hung around alll morning with my sweats on. I put away my clothes from this weekend that were displaced. I got a birthday card ready to send to Rose. I had Denny transfer $ to the Jensen account for birthday and travel. I put together spaghetti supper, capris salad and mixed tossed salad. Schrums are coming over. Becky sent me a link for TJ's game tonight. Denny cleaned the sand toys/ etc that we borrowed from McFarlands and we returned them. I made a few collages and worked on the blog on the deck in the sun. Wonderful end to a chilly start.
