Tues., 1/28/25, Went to get groceries, Bill picked up wood pellets, I picked up Peyton and Isaac from school, went to prayer

 

This was the only picture I took today.  I took it to show my Sister, Brenda, the Peace Plant that I got from her daughter in law, Sara’s, shower almost 25 years ago.  She also wanted to see the Crown of Thorns plant.  

Had coffee and Christmas cookies for breakfast.  I read a chapter in John that Maddy and I are doing each day.  Made a grocery list out to pick up things needed when Wes and Gayla come to dinner Thursday evening.  We are going to celebrate her birthday.  She doesn’t know it though.  I went to Jack’s, Meijer, and Aldi.  When I got home, I saw that Bill picked up the rest of the pellets.  He could only get 10 bags, last week because they were out.  He had them all stacked in the garage.  I went in and saw him and he asked if I needed help carrying the groceries in.  I told him he had already done lots of hard work and should rest.  

I didn’t have that many groceries, so I just brought them in and put them away.  I did need his help to carry in the 50 lb. bag of Wild Bird Seed though.  The birds were just about out of everything.  I refilled all the feeders and they were happy again.  Bill and I each had two Clementine oranges.  They were so good.

I went to get the cloths out of the dryer, and Bill had them out and folded already.  So sweet of him.  I was sure happy.  I called my sister, Brenda, and talked to her about 45 minutes.  She’s having an MRI tomorrow at 6 p.m. because she is having back pain.  I prayed with her and then we talked more.  She always prays for us too, and will be praying for Bruce’s hand surgery on Friday.  My phone alarm went off, so I had to hang up so I could go pick up Peyton and Isaac from school.  Vikki had therapy, at the time they needed to be picked up.  

I forgot to bring the rolls she asked me for, so we stopped at my house to get them.  I had them in the freezer.  We went to their house and was using my key, when Vikki opened the door and was home already.  I went in for a few minutes, then headed back home. 

When I got home, the beads and cord I had ordered for Peyton was on the table.  I wanted it to be here when we came here.  Just missed it by a few minutes.  

I went to prayer in the evening at church.  It was so awesome.  We worshipped and prayed for people in our congregation and family members who needed prayer.  Gene came for the first time.  He is our electrician and friend.  We had a good group there tonight and Jeff did a great job leading it.  He had everyone pray for me too healing of eczema.  Such a blessing to have people care and pray.  I am sure blessed.  

Vikki called me and had read a good book.  She told me all about it and did a great job explaining it.  She tells it in such an interesting way.  I did my “read the Bible in a year” reading.  Job 4-11 were the verses for today. 

Bill and I had chocolate covered almonds and nuts for a snack.
