My hand before surgery
My hand today!  I am praising God that my hand is back to normal and I can do everything with it again.  

Bill had a 7:30 doctor appt at the VA this morning.  I got up just as he was leaving.  Took my shower, fed Kit Kat, took some things down to the basement, and fed the fish.  I talked to Melissa and she and Jack took Badger into the Vets.  They did lots of testing, but haven’t figured out what is wrong with him yet other than his kidneys are failing and the numbers are off the chart.  They had another vet send some kind of a quick test.  We are all praying hard for Badger because we all love him.  He’s a great dog!.  Bill got home and helped me put some dishes and the punch bowl back up in the cupboard over the refrigerator.  I stood on the stool and he handed me things.   His gun safe came today.  He got it set up and put his guns in it.  

Kimmy called and she and Adam were at Vikki’s raking and bagging leaves.  She said they ran out of bags.  She said they could work until Adam had to go to therapy.  I told her I would pick up some bags and come help.  They are going to Georgia and she wanted to finish before they went.  They had lots done, but had lots more raked and ready to bag.  We all worked fast and steady.  Vikki got home at 2 and pulled up in her car to talk to us.  Adam was super busy with pushing down the leaves for us when our bags seemed full.  He made more room, he set up all of our bags and hauled them away for us when they were full.  He helped fill them too.  Vikki brought us each out a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, so we took a quick time out and ate.  It rained for the last few minutes, then we finished just in time for them to leave.  Kimmy thought they would be three minutes late for Adam’s appointment.  They left and headed there and Vikki and I came to my house and had left overs before she had to leave and pick up the kids.   

I got a text from my sister, Brenda, so I texted with her for a while.  I also texted with Maddy and Lisa.  Lisa has to have the same hand surgery on her right hand that I did.  I encouraged her that she would be thankful afterward.  

Bill went to an Elder’s meeting.  I talked with Melissa and got updates on Badger.  Then I told Melissa I was going to call Sue, and right at that time Sue called me.  Bill brought home some pumpkin and pecan pie and a can of whip cream that Pastor sent to me.  Yum!  The pumpkin was really good.  He also gave him a gift bag with an Amazon gift card in it and a big bag of Sarah’s Kettle Corn.  She’s a friend of ours who travels to different events and sells different kinds of popcorn.  

We enjoyed the tree lights in the evening.
