Th, Fr, & Sat. March 29-31
From has been a rainy, humid MO,
After I had breakfast with the ladies on Thursday, Jim met me at Country Kitchen and we took off for the Overland Park area of Kansas City. We went to "Land of Paws" for some treats for the girls, then had a delightful lunch at WilJenny's, and then on to Sam's to get divided styrofoam trays.
We were in and out of light rain until we reached east of Hamilton - and then the sky opened up. I am not sure if Jim has ever pulled off the highway since we were married due to weather, but we stopped at least twice while we were in torrential rain. We were in and out of rain for probably 15 miles and finally saw a clearing ahead. We stopped quickly for me to get the car at Country Kitchen and then headed home to unload. This we accomplished and then we took the truck to the shed as hail was also being forecast (Jim's boat is on his side of the garage.)
We had just returned home when the torrential rain hit here - probably about an inch in less than a half hour.
On Friday, Jim joined the second breakfast group and I joined a group of ladies at 10:30 at the Calvary Baptist Church where they were making Easter cards to be distributed to shut ins. Several of the breakfast group join the ladies at the church to help make cards. Eva Danner and Terry Childs had put together a brunch for afterwards as a belated birthday for Mary Willis. One guest that we had was my cousin (raised in Marceline) who now lives in Canada. She has driven down because of illness of her father. She was brave enough to make one card before the group called it quits and also joined us for brunch. This was her first introduction to Eva's famous cinnamon rolls - of course served hot.
We had intermittent rain during the night, not much, but just enough to keep things damp.
Jim walked Thursday at the Y and I joined him on Friday, and this a.m. I am now back to my 16 laps - counted steps this a.m. and each lap was 150 steps - so am way short of the suggested 10,000 steps per day. Jim and I have done some errands this morning and he is currently puttering with his boat as he and John are planning an outing on Sunday. I hope to finish a book this afternoon before the two basketball games this evening.
Be safe.
