Thurs. Aug. 17
From a warmish, humid MO,
This has been another full day. The girls were restless again last night so I must take a Tylenol PM tonight and hopefully get a good night of sleep tonight. I was up with them about midnight and again at 4:00 - then they heard Jim moving about 5:00 - so the 6:30 a.m. alarm came a little too soon for me.
We had seven at breakfast this a.m. - Mary W., Pat, Clara, Jan, Mary D (last time as school begins on Monday), Sandy, and yours truly. We had so many topics going this a.m. that I couldn't begin to keep up. Jan brought three sample blocks of the wall hanging that she is currently working on - depicts a shaded spruce and shaded aspens - as she picked up the pattern while at Estes Park a few weeks ago.
I went by the store afterwards and picked up some canned pop so that Jim and I could ice it down and take over to the Melte family (Vickie was originally a Melte). We had a good visit with Vickie, David, and Larry Melte. They are trying to get through their mom's appartment so that it can be vacated by Aug. 31.
I fixed bacon (turkey bacon) and tomato sandwiches for lunch and then went down for a nap. Jim has done a lot of reading in the past few weeks and has one more book to go in his 26 book series by Alexander Kent. He has a book that RoseLee Davis brought him to read that he will probably do next and then try a Scarrow series that Mike Lair has enjoyed.
Jim had requested refried bean burritos for supper and I fixed a lettuce salad for him to go with it. I wanted a stir-fry (as well as the burritos) - so my taste buds were also satisfied.
We have a rather full day for Friday. Jim has rehab at 8:00 (and then will probably join the second group for breakfast) and I hope to have walked by the time he is ready to leave. I have a pile of books to donate to the library and then have several errands and projects that I would like to get done afterwards. We will attend the Booster "scrimmage" game in the evening - weather permitting. Rain is in the forecast, but we are not afraid of rain - just don't like sitting out in lightning.
Be safe.
