Me and my sweet Rehvyn
Peyton, Rehvyn and Isaac

I got up around 8:30 and Bill got up at 9:30.  I had my coffee and cereal and went over my list of what to do in the camper when leaving the campground.  I just had to change a few things and will need to type a new list to keep on the camper fridge.  We read our Bibles.  Bill cleaned off and picked up the carpet mats outside and packed them away.  I did the things on my list inside.  It was pretty fast and then we were ready to leave.  

I put the trash in the dumpster and he pulled in to dump the tanks.  He said he didn’t need me to help with anything, so I drove on home.  When I got home, I quick took my bike off the bike rack and loaded my hammock parts in the hammock bag which was stuffed on a shelf in the garage.  I wanted to save Bill some jobs since it was so hot out.  All he needed to do then was take the bike rack off and put the short trailer hitch on.  We decided to wait til it’s cooler to unload the camper.  I went out and had lunch in it since all the food is out there.
I left to go take back a few things before heading up to see Marie.  When I got up to Marie’s room, she was just starting OT.  She had two really nice therapists.  They said I could come sit and watch her do her therapy which was to put cards from a pile on the left and also on the right on the matching cards face up on a board with all of the cards.  She had weight on her arms making it a little more difficult.  She had some boo boos, but did pretty well.
I got to share about Melissa being in Mary Free Bed and how much they helped her and also the miracles that God did.  I called to check on Roy, since Marie told me he hadn’t been up yet because he was doing yard work.  It was so hot out and the feel like temp was 98 degrees.  I just wanted to make sure he was ok and cooled down.  He didn’t answer the first time, but I tried again later and he answered.  He had stopped at the trucking company he used to work at to say hi.  He came to the hospital doubt 10 minutes later.  I went and got him a coffee, then we all visited.  I had to get home to do the laundry and then work on a funeral with Bill.  I also needed to stop at Vikki’s and drop her stuff she forgot in the camper off.  I came in the door and was going to go hug Peyton and Isaac, but Rehvyn was holding his arms up to me across the gate.  He was so cute and was asking me to pick him up so I did that first.  He was so cute and gave me fist bumps and gave me a kiss.  What a little sweetheart.  I love him so much. 

I ordered Isaac’s birthday present off the list he sent me.  I ordered Rachael from church’s baby shower gifts too.  
 
Bill went to the Marine Corp League meeting, so I made up some potato salad for tomorrow to take to Fred’s.  Bill had told me that’s what they wanted me to bring.  Then I read Fred’s test and it said a watermelon too.  I texted Bill and he picked up one on his way home.  He’s going to cut it tomorrow, while I take my shower and get ready.

It’s supposed to rain tonight.  I sure hope they are right.  We need it badly.  I did pull some weeds in my flower garden tonight and moved my lavender plant.  It was getting crowded by the Hibiscus.  I pulled lots of big weeds that came while I was gone for 3 weeks.  I am leaving the rest until after the rain so they pull easier.  

When he got home, we worked on Gabriel’s funeral message.  Her funeral is on Friday.  We got it done.  When I prayed for Marie at the hospital today, she prayed for Bill and I to find the right words and right scriptures.  Thankful for that prayer because it sure went well.

I turned the pool filter off and also turned the air off in the camper.  It’s 75 degrees out and feels much better than it did today.
