| We took Matthew his Christmas gift tonight. I didn’t arrive until a few days after Christmas |
Woke up lots last night again. I used my electric throw the whole night and had it on because it was so cool from that wind blowing outside. I got up at 7 and went upstairs and did my hair. I put worship music on while I was upstairs. Bill was up by the time I came downstairs. Bill took the garbage out. Felt bad he had to be out in the cold and wind. I put some nice and warm clothes on even for inside. When he got in the house, we read our Bibles, did devotions, and prayer books. We both read up on the travel printer Bill got me for Christmas. I charged it.
We went to my therapy session at 1:30. I had Shannon. She was nice but she really worked me. I rode the bike for the first time for 5 minutes, did my regular home therapy, did the ball squeeze between my knees, had my knees tied with a theraband and had to see how far could push them apart. She had me lay on my stomach and side on the Mat. Then she stretched my legs to see how far I could move them. She lifted my operative leg as high as she could which was straight up. It didn’t hurt at least. I also had to do leg stretches in the cage. I was ready for a nice rest after all that. I go back in one week, then will go twice a week after that.
We went to Hobby Lobby to see if we could find an ornament box on sale but there’s were gone. Then went to Big Lots next door and they were out of business. We went to Chick-Fil-A and used gift cards Bill had to buy our food and yummy shakes. I had a peppermint shake and he had plain vanilla. We talked to Michael who was working and came to help us. He was quick to smile and say hi Miss Penny. He was in my K-1 Sunday School class for 2 years. We always love it when we see each other. He was a great kid and grew into a great adult. He works here while he’s going to college.
We went to Meijer to get the groceries I need to make my stuff to take to Vikki’s for New Year’s Eve. We were also looking for vanilla bean paste. I have never heard of it, but it’s in Hailey’s recipe for cinnamon rolls. I asked and got the right aisle, but no paste. I only found a spice jar with vanilla bean sticks. I tried to call Hailey, but she didn’t answer. I got them so if she makes her own paste I will be able to.
We came home and Bill brought in the groceries and I put them away. We rested for a while, then we went to visit Matthew and took him his Christmas gift that came late. He was so happy and really liked it. We visited in the foyer, then the living room. Debbie was having a fish fry party and had lots of friends and our cousins Debbie and Sonny were there too. She offered food to us there and then to take home, but we were full. We took some pictures and then we left to go visit our friends from church, Jeff and Debbie a couple of blocks away. Debbie is the one who had knee surgery 5 days after my surgeries. I took her some strawberries from Meijer’s that are 99 cents today. We sat in the living room and visited for 2 1/2 hours, then we prayed for the last 20 minutes. It was such a special night visiting our sweet nephew, Bill’s sister and our great friends. Kimmy called while we were at Debbie and Jeff’s to let me know they wouldn’t be coming to Vikki’s New Years Eve party because Jared and Eli had fevers now. I sure am praying for them. We will sure miss them. I was happy when she said we were going to have a celebration night where we still get together and play Bingo. That makes it a little bit better, but sure won’t be the same without them tomorrow night. I called her back on our way home. It had snowed about an inch and traffic was moving slow. I was glad when we got home safe and sound.
I worked on my blog and then was ready to go to sleep.
