Bill and Evan at Best Friend’s Day at his school |
The choir |
New light Bill put up over the ping pong table. No more pulling chains to turn on lights. It’s hooked up to the switch. Yay! |
Regan and Peyton packing the shoeboxes. They managed to fit everything in. Great job girls! |
Bill got up early to go to Evan’s school for Friend’s Day. It was his turn this year as I went last year. It’s kind of sad that this is the last time for it. We will have no more grandkids in that school after this year. They sure grow up fast. Bill sent me pictures he took of them.
I got up at 7:20 and as soon as Bill left, I moved chairs and vacuumed and mopped the Kitchen, Foyer, Bathroom and Laundry room floors. After I finished, I left and went to Meijer to get the solar calculators and a Rubik cube at Meijer, plus a few groceries. They were all out of both items I needed for the shoeboxes, so I stopped at Walmart and got them there. I went home after that. Bill wasn’t home yet. I put rugs back down and chairs back around the table.
Bill got home and moved the old lights that were over the ping pong table, to the other side of the room. He also picked up a different light for above the table and in the two back rooms and hung them. He had me come down and see them. They all look so nice!
Barb called me and wanted the recipe for my rolls that I brought with their meal. Ron really liked them and wants her to make them. We had a nice talk and she is doing good after her surgery.
Vikki came and brought Peyton and Regan to pack the Operation Christmas Shoeboxes. Isaac came too, but didn’t want to do a shoebox this year. The girls did a wonderful job of getting all the stuff in the boxes really good. They both closed nicely which sometimes takes many tries. They liked the basement. Peyton and Regan played some ping pong.
I made eggs, potatoes, bacon and toast for dinner. I accidentally knocked a small jar of blackberry jelly on the floor and it broke. Go figure! I was thinking before I mopped the floors that something always gets spilled after I mop floors. I cleaned that up and then ate. Then Bill asked me why the garbage disposal wasn’t working. I told him it had been working earlier. I got a flashlight and looked to see if it had a reset button. When I did that, I spilled my watering can for plants. It was only water! I was happy about that at least. It was right across from where I broke the jelly jar. I was happy there was only a tiny bit of jelly left in it. I guess the water spill was the final rinse for the jelly mess.
Bill left to go to the Marine Corp. League Meeting. I didn’t have time to read my Bible earlier when he read his, so I read it after he left. I’m halfway in the book of Daniel right now. After I finished, I got a call from Gayla. Wes will have his skin graft on Friday. She is going to call me and let me know the details when she finds out. I prayed for them over the phone. We talked for a long time. They are such great friends.
I talked to Kimmy and she is coming tomorrow instead of Friday since I will have to be making lots of stuff for our Thanksgiving meal on Friday for our Saturday get together. Adam texted me and said he will drive over after he gets out of school.
