| After whipping in the wind so much, it still looks in pretty good shape. Slept til 6:30 then went out to my recliner. Rested til 7:30 then got up and took my shower, and got ready. Kenzie and Rehvyn FaceTimed me. He was so cute and was eating cereal, then he would drink the milk out of the straw attached to the cereal bowl. We ended our FaceTime because we had to leave and I had lots to carry. It was 9:45, when we left to go to Perry to get shed lights to replace 3 that are burned out. It was a beautiful drive with lots of beautiful color still. We picked up the lights at the guys house/business way out in the country. We stopped at Lou and Gregg’s restaurant on the way home and Bill got breakfast and I got a slim Gregg who’s is even better than Big Boy’s. When I got home the kite was still in the tree so I took some pictures. I sent them to Ben. He said he was trying to come up with a plan and it would be soon. I told him he didn’t need to hurry and that we just wanted him to be safe. After I texted him I called and talked to Melissa. We prayed that Ben would come up with a plan and God would send someone to help him. Vikki called me after I hung up with Melissa and said she had told Rody about the kite and out of the blue he called her and said he could come and put a hook on his drone and use it to get the kite down. They didn’t know Melissa and I had prayed and God sure answered fast. I love it when he does that. I texted Ben and he was pretty thankful and pretty happy to have a plan in place. Rody is going to come on Saturday because by the time he gets out of work it is dark out, plus tomorrow night he has Peyton’s play to go to. I told Ben that we liked his business card and the Scripture on it and that we were Christians too. He texted back about being happy we were Christians and how God has been so good to his family and was the one providing everything for them. Then he asked where we go to church. I told him New Life and he said he knows New Life very well. He coached baseball with our assistant Pastor Dan this past spring and also has quite a few acquaintances and old friends that go there. He goes to Immanuel Bible Church which is by my parent’s house which I lived at from age 15 til I got married. I know a couple that go to his church and he knew them too. It sure is a small world. Then after talking to Vikki, I decided to look Ben up online to see if he was on Facebook. It came up that we have 17 mutual friends plus Rody Monroe. I could’t believe it! He and Rody know each other. Rody said he is really nice guy. I didn’t tell Ben Rody’s name, I just said my son in law. Anyway, God sure is awesome how he brings people together. What a way to meet your neighbor! Bill and I brought in the swing seats from the swings on the deck and put them up on the top of the shelf in the garage. I brought my last bird house that is decorative in too, plus brought my two favorite hoses in. So thankful Kimmy and Jared told us about them. They are light weight and colorful and work so well. I met Maddy at Panera’s at 6. I got a cookie and she got a blueberry bagel. We visited for 1 1/2 hours and had a great visit and so many laughs. She got me a quick dry towel, 3 Scrub Daddy’s, and some Thin Mint Bites from the Girl Scouts. She also made me such a sweet card. I’m so thankful for her. She told me I can come up the day after her baby is born. I gave her a dishcloth I just made and took the spoon rest Kimmy made and had her take it to her mom. I came home and as I pulled in the driveway, I saw eyes glowing in the dark. When my headlights shined on it, it was a deer in our ditch coming up on to our front lawn. Didn’t expect that! When I got in comfy pjs, I read my Bible, then worked on my blog. I ate my other half sandwich from today. I talked a few times with Vikki too.
