Katie and Beth

  I played PB and around 9:15 Gail and I headed to Harlingen to pick up Katie and Beth at the airport.  We drove to Valley Baptist and had a short visit with Jean.  She is in ICU.  She could be moved to regular room, but there are 11 people in ER and they would have first priority for a room, so she remains where there is  more care, which may be a good thing.  Gail went with Bruce and Bev and Jim to SPI to dance.  I rode with Denny to mail a package,   We had the Schrums and Bruce and Gloria over for supper.  Denny swore at me for not having butter with the fresh bread.  Lord, Grant me wisdom.  

Happy Anniversary, Luke and Karen111

I was planning to go to Black Friday with Bev.  As I was getting ready to get in the car Gail came and said Jean is not well.  I went down to her and Arlen, Gail and I got Jean in the car.  The was continue, but not responsive.  They took Jean to Valley Baptist and I followed them to ER.  She was seen by a doctor and had a lot of tests done.  We headed back to the park little after noon.  I redid the clubhouse painting in the afternoon.  Denny went fishing at dusk. k Didn't catch anything.  Gail and I went to Black Friday.  Only a few tables left with stuff.
