Kimmy and I worked on cleaning the pond today.  Then we brought the fish up from the basement and put them in it
We put stuff in it to keep it clear

Bill and I read our Bibles and did our prayer book devotion.  Afterward, I called Kimmy because I was missing her and wanted to see if we could get together a day this week since we will be camping again this week, Thursday through Sunday, coming home Sunday for Mother's Day.  She called Jared to see which day he could pick up Eli and today worked out so she hung up and came over.  We worked out in my flower garden.  Kimmy moved my Lamb’s Ear and some other plants for me and dug out C Jenny which had to go.  It sure goes wild, although it’s pretty.  She edged my garden for me too.  A huge thank you Kimmy!
I took our water jugs outside so we could drink while we worked.  We came in and ate a salad for lunch too.  Then we moved the fish from the basement pond to the pond outside.  Those fish are fast, but I caught a few and Kimmy caught the rest.  Their water was really stirred up and they were hard to see.  They look so nice in there new home for the summer.
Vikki came over and brought us a small wrap to share and some Mac & Cheese, plus dessert from her luncheon honoring the lunch ladies and guy.  They work so hard so it was nice they honored them.  Kimmy came in and as she walked in she felt a migraine coming on.  She gave us a scare when she didn’t know what an oriole was, but once she rested and put an ice pack on for a while she was feeling better.  We offered to drive her home, but she felt good enough to drive.    Jared was waiting at home with a nice iced gatorade for her and excellent care.  We all love our Kimmy so much!  

Bill and I worked outside some more after Kimmy left.  I checked on my fish a few times to make sure they were doing good.  They were of course.  

I talked to Vikki, then talked to Melissa for quite a while.  They are going on vacation and are taking some hiking trips in Colorado.  When she was talking about the bears there, I kind of got nervous, so prayed for them.
