Wed.,2/12/2020, Went to Melissa's, Walked on treadmill, Used Air roaster and Air fryer, Taught K-1 kids at church

Chicken breasts I cooked on air roast setting and fried potatoes I made on air fry setting.
Chicken took 25 minutes and potatoes 12 minutes....Tasted delicious...didn't remember to take a picture until we were finished eating so only got the left overs

Peyton's cute Kitty Valentine Box





Went to Melissa's in the morning and visited for a few minutes, then took her to therapy.  She sure is looking great when she walks in without the cane now.  They are always happy to see her and so are the other patients there.  She always makes friends wherever she goes.  I came home and watched videos on my Ninja Foodi to learn how to use it.  Bill wanted me to make him some toast after I showed him the video of the lady making toast.  It turned out good, but she said set the darkness on 4 and we will set it on 3 next time.  I went to pick up Melissa, and then we went to have lunch at the Olive Garden.  It was 1:15 and the place was packed worse than on a Sunday at Noon.  We waited for a little while than got to sit at a table.  Didn't bother waiting for a booth.  We both had the lunch spaghetti special.  It was delicious. Melissa showed me her phone cover and it is beautiful.  I definitely have to get the kind the girls have because mine is so heavy and thick.  I came home and Bill had the new plug for the treadmill all put in.  He walked on it, and while the food was cooking I walked some on it.  Tomorrow I will do 2 miles.  I went to teach my kiddos at church after we ate.  It was a fun class with lots of fun activities and games.  My kids pray so good when it's prayer time.  When I got home, I asked Bill if he walked on the treadmill, and he said he walked two miles.  I am so happy to have him walking again.  Peyton, Isaac and Vikki made the cutest Valentine's boxes and they definitely go with their personalities.  So cute!

Tues., 2/11/2020...Went to breakfast, Got early Birthday present, Kimmy came to Saginaw, Had Small Group

Isaac and Peyton watching Papa showing them something on his phone
Three cuties
Early Birthday Present....Ninja Air Fryer, Air Roaster, Air Broiler, Bake, Dehydrate, Keep warm,
Make up to 9 slices of toast at once, and a Bagel Toaster all in one!  Thank you sweetie Bill!
It folds up when not in use for extra counter space which I love
Daisy had her lamb....cutest lamb I have ever seen!

We went to breakfast.  Kenny, Charlie, Wes, Gayla, Phyllis, Dennis, Bill and I were all there.  We had a good devotion and prayer time.  Came home and did Bible reading, worshipped and prayed.  
Talked to Melissa for a long time and prayed with her.  Bill found a treadmill he wants to get.  Not one that I would pick, but he really wants it.  Kimmy called and was passing through Freeland on her way to the dentist.  She stopped and dropped of my Ninja early birthday present from Bill.  It is so nice!  Now I have to learn how to use it.  Vikki, Peyton, Isaac, Bill and I met Kimmy at Tim Horton's after Kimmy was done at the dentist.  We had a nice time and a nice visit.  Kimmy and Vikki went to Best Buy, but I decided I had better come home and get ready for Small Group.  Picked the worship songs and did some last minute cleaning, then got everything ready.  Bill set up the chairs and tv trays.  We had a good study and time flew by quickly.  Bill was expecting the guys to come deliver the treadmill, but they didn't come until 10 p.m.  They got it in the basement and found out it needs a different plug, which Bill said he will be putting in tomorrow.  He is also putting in a plug for me in the kitchen for my coffee pot, since I had to movie it.  The treadmill is super big (commercial) and doesn't fold up.  Guess I am just happy that Bill will be exercising again.  I will be using it too.

Monday, 2/10/2020...Walked 2 miles, Did Small Group Lesson

Walked 2 miles in the morning.  Snowy morning.  Kimmy's boy's school was cancelled, but no schools in Saginaw were.  Did laundry, sewed my boots, and made a roast, carrots and potatoes.  Bill snowblowed the driveway. While he was doing it, Vikki called to offer to come over after the kids were out of school and do the driveway with them.  Sweet of her, but Bill has it pretty easy with the tractor and doesn't have to strain too much when he does that.  I shoveled the back deck path for him.
He slept quite a bit today, and I took a short nap.  The roast was yummy.  We both did our lesson for Small group and watched a nice Christian Movie on Amazon Prime.  Read some on my book, Knowing God.

Sunday, 2/9/2020....Bill was in lots of pain, went to church, took Bill to Urgent Care, Watched a couple of good movies



Pretty empty hospital waiting rooms...both ones we were in were empty...that's a good thing!
Bill wired for his EKG....good results praise God
Pretty snowy on the drive home
Pretty big snowflakes falling
Bill waving to Kimmy while I was talking to her

Got ready for church, then noticed that Bill was is a super lot of pain.  He even had me put his socks on for him.  He was gasping out it was so bad.  I told him he should stay home from church, but he insisted on going.  He did let me drive. Everyone at church could tell he was in lots of pain.
When we went up at the end of service to pray for people, people came up and instead of us praying for them, they wanted to pray for Bill.  Lots of caring people at our church.  On our way home, I was going to take him to Urgent Care, but he wanted to come home and change and eat first.  We did that, then Vikki called to check on her dad.  I decided after talking with her and hearing how concerned she was, to take his blood pressure.  It was 180/100, so I took him immediately to Urgent Care.  We were the only ones in the waiting room, so he got in right away. They gave him a pain shot which helped.  We came home and he took a good nap.  I took a short nap too.  I saw these cute pictures posted on Facebook of Max and Hailey at Youth Group.  Bruce gave the devotion message, and other parents helped with food and games.  Melissa said Bruce got lots of nice compliments about his devotion.  We watched a couple good movies.  Melissa called to check on her dad, and so did Kimmy.  Blessed to have such loving, caring kids!

We went to Isaac's game.  He really movies fast now!  Loved watching him play.  After his game, we went over to see Mike P., and his sisters, Ann and Susie.  We also saw Matt, Lupe and Nick.
Vikki, Rody, and the kids met us at Tim Horton's after Isaac's game.  We had fun figuring how to move a bottle of water off from a dollar bill.  Vikki did it before Bill showed her the right way.  The kids each did it than and got a dollar!  We gave a lady next to our table and her daughter a couple Starbuck gift cards.  Her daughter had down syndrome and sure made me think of Kenny.  She was such a loving girl.  I called Melissa and found out she was at Jack's game.  I didn't know he had a game, so I told her to send me a schedule.  I saw pictures later and read comments!  Jack did great and got a couple of 3 pointers although for C teams they don't count 3 points.  Jack was pretty excited though and found his spot.  What a confidence builder.  Can't wait to watch him play.
Bill and I went to Godwin's and found a recliner we really liked.  We brought some material samples home to make sure it would match.  It did, so we went back and got it.  It is a Kipling and is so comfy.  We came home and had round steak and Mashed potatoes for dinner.  Relaxed after that and read some.

Friday, 2/7/2020, Took Melissa to therapy, made roundsteak in crockpot, Went to Culvers and then walked around Art Van



It was beautiful this morning with the fresh white snow

Evan's class went to the planetarium today...He is 3rd from the left in back

Abby so cute all snuggled in the pillows on the couch

Didn't sleep good last night.  Got up and got ready to take Melissa to therapy. She sure is doing good walking now.  I came home and got round steak in the crockpot for dinner tonight.  I listened to Dr. Dobson's Friday morning prayer, and prayed along with thousands of people.  I picked Melissa up and got her a Grand Turkey Club.  She is such a sweetie and so beautiful inside and out.  
Praying for my Kimmy's arm and all my sweeties at her house to feel better.  After we ate, Bill took a nap and then we went to Culver's for concrete mixers. We went and walked around Art Van and got some steps.  Came home and watched the Democratic Debate.  It was all I could do to sit through it.  They are a bunch of baby killers who want to give women the right to kill their babies.  How about Abstinance, Birth Control, the morning after pill, not kill a baby.  They even want to kill late term abortions.  We Christians need to pray this evil is stopped.  I am praying like never before!

Thursday, 2/6/2020, Walked, Watched President Trump at National Prayer Breakfast, and at the Capital Building afterward

Such a great picture!  Trump Acquitted!

I walked 2 miles, then made oatmeal for Bill and I.  After we ate, we watched the National Prayer Breakfast.  So thankful for people in our nation that know the importance of prayer.  President Trump spoke at it and did great.  He also did a wonderful job later at the Capital, thanking all the many warriors who helped him fight against the awful Democrats who have been against him from the beginning and doing everything to get rid of him.   He has done amazing things already and has a great team of amazing leaders he surrounds himself with.  Praying he cleans up his language, but I am very thankful for his godly stand and the changes he is making for the good of our Country.
In the evening, we went to Faith Riders Officer's Meeting.  Had a good discussion and Vicki brought a yummy banana pudding dessert.
