This and That

Well, this will be a quiet weekend. Mom, Sara, and Meredith are going to ND, driving all the way up on Friday and all the way back on Monday, with the two weekend days to visit. Em and Andy are coming on Saturday to stay in their house and take care of the animals, but I have to go there on Friday evening and SAturday morning and again on Monday morning.

At work, our summer help is leaving. For me that means more work at the front counter, which means more standing and walking, which means that on very busy days I am likely to go home and collapse in the chair, and not move for several hours. Supper on those days is not very good. The one girl has been here for several years, and she handles things very well. The other counter girl's last day was yesterday. We have had donuts two days in a row. Today I had a chocolate frosted custard filled long john. MMMMMMMmmmmmm.......

David is walking around very well with his walker, and trying to walk without it. His knees are hurting less every day and he only takes one or two pain pills a day. Jeffrey has been staying with us and taking David to PT which is a God-send. We did not have a way for David to get there until Jeffrey said he was coming to stay with us! God works things out for our good once again.

David wants to go to church this Sunday, actually he wanted to go to the men's Bible study Sat morning at 7 am. I would have to drive him, and I said oh no, I wanted to sleep. And I think sitting on a folding chair for a couple of hours would not be a good thing for him. Maybe in a couple of weeks when they meet again. I may try to go to women's Bible study, ours starts at 9:30 which is a little more presentable time. But church on Sunday, I will help him get there. We shall have to get up very early, because I have to help him get dressed, wash his feet, change his bandage, and put a clean pair of Ted hose on him. David puts the Ted hose on his sock putter oner thing and that helps get them on. It hurts my hands to pull those socks on!!

Back to work, my time is up!
