Sharp's Travels

Cheri and both did exercises before leaving for church. Pastor Randy’s message was titled “When challenged by worldly thinking” from Colossians 2:8-10. Our Sunday school lesson was titled “Commissions” from Luke 24:36-49. Jesus commissioned His followers to proclaim the gospel. After Sunday school we ordered our Pizza and headed back to Zephyrhills to pick it up and was home by 1:30 pm. We watched the Indy 500 while having the pizza. After the race we watched a Hallmark movie. After the movie it was time to watch the NASCR race. Cheri read while I watched until I was caught up to live TV. Then we watched another movie, after the movie I was back to the race. I couldn’t stay awake for the whole race and will watch the rest of it tomorrow. Thank you God for time spent with you and church friends.

We are both feeling some better today so decided to go out for breakfast in Dade City at the Black Eyed Pea. (For you Pam and me it is the Sweet Pea). Cheri finished the painting on the barn quilt today. I need to spray some sealer on it before rehanging it. I spent a lot of time doing insurance work to get some refunds. I quit reading the new mystery novel I started, can’t seem to get into it and too many people to keep track of. No lunch today because of the big breakfast. We were watching a movie this afternoon and looked over at Cheri and she was napping and I also napped so turned off the TV so we could nap but without the TV on we both woke up. I did watch a NASCAR race this afternoon. Cheri fixed us beans and franks for supper. After watching the rest of the movie we napped through we took a golf cart ride around the park. We finished the day watching some shows we had recorded. Thank you God for a blessed day.

Not much going on today. We didn’t go out for breakfast this morning. Cheri and I both having a problem with our stomachs, Cheri more than me, still from the lunch we had at BK. Cheri was busy with laundry, painting on the barn quilt, and her exercises. I have not done a good job of doing my exercises, need to get back at it. Today I worked on repairing an antique dining room table that is over 100 years old. It took me awhile but got it repaired good as new. I had planned on doing some other outside work but got lazy and spent my time in the recliner. Cheri fixed us the leftovers from our meal at Harry’s for supper. Was going to go for golf cart ride this evening but when it came time to go just didn’t feel like it. This evening we watched several shows we had recorded. Thank you God for helping us through this day.

Cheri was busy with her Thursday housework, laundry, and more painting on the barn quilt. I worked outside cleaning in my shop. I managed to get rid of a lot of stuff that I don’t use anymore. I also got a call from the neighbor wanting me to come over and show them how to install cabinet door and drawer pulls on their cabinets. They plan on using leather straps for the pulls. I need to go back tomorrow with a drill bit and a template for them. Also will be doing a repair on their dining room table. This afternoon we picked up Art and Ruby and went to Lakeland to have an early dinner at Harry’s. The food was very good and they already said that they want to go back there again. When we got back to their place we sat and visited for a while. It was around 6:30 pm when we finally go settled in at home. We watched the Chicago shows before calling it a night. Thank you God for a blessed day spending time with Art and Ruby.

I left the house at 7:30 am for my last PT appointment. They took measurements and found that I had gain some improvement in my arm and shoulder movement. I am not sure it was a true measurement as they took the measurements before any PT on my first visit and today they took the measurements after the PT. I stopped at the VA clinic to make an appointment with my primary doctor to see what the next step will be for my shoulder and back, something I should have done months ago. On the way home I took the truck to through the car wash. Cheri was gone when I got home as she also had a doctor’s appointment at 9:30 am. She was home only a short time before we left at 11:30 am heading to Dade City for the Wednesday noon church service. Pastor Randy’s message was on Palms 10. After church we stopped at BK for lunch. After lunch we made a stop at Wal-Mart, Ollie’s, and then took the car through the car wash. Around 2:30 pm I got a call from Darren to work on our computer. Not receiving or able to send any e-mails. I am able to receive on my phone but can’t send any. Cheri can’t send or receive. It took Daren two hours to straighten out what I has screwed up. It all had to do with Googles where I had to make some changes because of a recurring charge on a credit card. Late this afternoon Cheri was sick and I didn’t feel good, pretty sure it was from our BK lunch. So we both went to bed not feeling that good. Tried to watch some TV. Thank you God for guiding us through this day and spending time with you.   

I headed out at 6:30 am for my accountability group breakfast and Bible study. We studied the first part of Acts chapter 17. There were only six of us this morning. When I got home I cleaned the inside of the car windshield as it was cloudy and needed a good cleaning which is something I don’t like doing as it is hard for me to reach in to do the cleaning. I also wash the side of truck that has something like grease spots on the side and noticed it didn’t come off the last time through the car wash. I did do a little computer work and that was it for the day. Cheri did her Tuesday house work and painting on the barn quilt. We both read, napped, and watched TV. Cheri fixed us pork chops supper. Dennis picked me up at 7:45 pm and did security with him this evening. When I got home Cheri and I watched Building off the Grid and a home improvement show before calling it a night. Thank you God for a bless day and spending time with my accountability group and Cheri.

I am still not doing the morning walk. I didn’t do any exercises today, depressed as I don’t think they are doing any good. Cheri is good about doing her exercises every day. We didn’t have any wind this morning and that was what I needed to finish cleaning off the carport roof. So the first thing this morning I went out and got that done. Later Cheri and I went to Rural King as they had men’s denim shorts on sale for $9.89 a pair, came home with three pair. On the way home we stopped at Wawa to fill the car with gas and got sandwiches for lunch. They were ok but nothing special and told Cheri I would spend the little extra to have Jersey Mike’s. Dennis came over to talk with me about some lattice by his carport. So we went back to his place and showed me what he wanted. I gave him some different ideas and now he wants to think about it. Cheri continued painting on the barn quilt and putting away paper work that she had been working on for over a month. The rest of the afternoon was spent reading and napping. Cheri fixed us scrambled eggs with sausage with an English muffin for supper. It was an evening of TV and don’t remember all the shows we watched. Thank you God for helping us through this day.  

Cleaning the carport roof.

Cheri had made additional wafers yesterday so we could have them again this morning. Just pop them into the toaster and taste fresh made. We left the house at 9:30 am heading to Dade City for church and Sunday school. Pastor Randy’s message was titled “How Should We Model Christ” from Colossians 2:1-7. Our Sunday school lesson was titled “Revealed” from Luke 24:18-31. Jesus reveals His identity to those seeking Him. We ordered our Domino’s pizza before we left the church parking lot. We headed back to Zephyrhills to get the pizza and then home by 1:30 pm. We watched a Hallmark movie while eating our pizza. After the movie was over it was time for me to watch the NASCAR race. Cheri painted a couple of coats on the barn quilt. After the race we settled in for two more Hallmark movies. For supper we had the Italian sandwich we ordered with the pizza. Thank you God for spending time with you and our church friends.

I still have pain in my back, hip, and leg, not doing the morning walk. Cheri fixed us waffles for breakfast to have with our coffee. Cheri was busy with painting on the barn quilt. I went over to the neighbors and cut the seed pods out of his palm trees. Not a project that I wanted to do as I have to carry over the heavy ladder to get up into the palm trees. Which isn’t good for my back. I spent the rest of the day in my recliner reading, napping, and watching a little TV. Cheri also spent time in her recliner. We had left over Italian casserole for supper. This evening we watched a Hallmark movie, Date Line, and a couple of home improvement shows. Thank you God for being with us today.

I set the trash out at 6:00 am and when Cheri and I went out for breakfast the trash had been ripped open. For the last month or so I have seen a cat around the area. I am pretty sure that it was the cat that got into the garbage. I said to Cheri it is time to get my trap set. I hadn’t set it because I was tired of catching possums. Cheri and I eat breakfast at the Sunrise Eatery, still one of the best places for breakfast. On the way home we stopped at the post office and the pharmacy. When we got home Cheri continued with the laundry and busy painting on the barn quilt. It is going to take her a long time to do the painting as she has to put on three coats of paint and can only do one color at a time. I went outside to do some work and saw the cat go under out neighbor’s house. So quickly went and got the trap and set up close by and went in the house to wait. Well within ten minutes I heard the trap go off and sure enough I caught the cat. So I loaded it into the truck and took it for a ride up to Dade City. I also spent time on the computer and with Capital One as we have had a recurring charge on Cheri’s card. They were good about helping me with it but Cheri will have to have a new card to make sure to get rid of the recurring charge. It was some kind of scam. Cheri fixed us an Italian casserole for supper with garlic toast. Later we took a golf cart ride around the park. It was a beautiful day but very windy this afternoon, still having the low humidity. This evening we watched a Hallmark movie along with some other shows we had recorded. Thank you God for helping us through this day.  

The cat I took for a ride.

I had PT at 7:00 am and still have pain in my shoulder which doesn’t seem to be getting any better. Probably because I am not letting it heal by working and lifting. Cheri also had a knee appointment this morning at 9:15 am. She was told she still has swelling around the knee and gave her a cream to put on it, couldn’t give her a pill as it would add to her blood thinner. I left at 9:00 am to work in Tampa Bay country to install the new vanity top. When I got to work I realized I forgot one piece of the back splash. I was upset with myself for forgetting it but as it turned out I needed to go to Lowes for an additional drain piece. So I was able to come home for lunch. I did get the project finished and was near 5:00 pm when I got home. Cheri fixed a new recipe for baby back spare ribs. They were ok but lacked some seasoning. This evening we watched all the Chicago shows, Seal Team, and Swat. Thank you God for guiding us through this day getting our projects completed.

We have been blessed with some really nice weather the last few days, low humidity with a nice breeze and temps in the low 80’s. I worked outside for a while this morning getting my truck stocked for tomorrow. I even put the battery charger on our golf cart as it hasn’t been charged for almost a year. I wasn’t sure if it would take a charge or not but it did charge so the batteries may be better than I thought they were. I hope to get time this summer to get it repaired so we can use it. Cheri and I left at 11:30 am for the Wednesday noon church service. Pastor Randy’s message was the study of Palms 9, very interesting on how a broke it down to better understand it. When we got home we had a late lunch and then I headed to Lakeland to pick up the granite vanity top that was ordered last Wednesday. It was 4:00 pm when I finally got done for the day. Cheri had done some painting on the barn quilt which will take a while as there is a lot of different areas to be painted. Cheri made us a Hobo diner for supper, it was excellent. This evening we watched a Hallmark movie, FBI Most Wanted, and some other show that I don’t remember. Thank you God for time spent with you and helping us through this day.

I left the house at 6:30 am heading to Dade City for my accountability breakfast and Bible study. There were eight of us this morning. We finished Acts chapter 16. I stopped at the VA Clinic on my way home trying to get some things straightened out. Over the last two week I have gotten two calls that I was supposed to contact the VA here in Zephyrhills for labs but when I contact them they tell me that there isn’t any order for labs. I guess the doctor canceled the labs after they were ordered. When I got home Cheri was busy with her Tuesday housework. I headed out to clean the rain gutters from the leave I blew off the roof last week. I did get some of it done but it was too windy to clean off the new carport extension. I also took down the barn quilt that was hanging on the front of the house, it needs to be repainted. I did do the sanding on it and now is ready Cheri to paint. After I showered Cheri and I headed out to Plaza Mexico to have Taco Tuesday. We have had some really good meals there, but we didn’t care for the tacos. When we got home we headed for the recliners where we did some reading and napping. Because of the big lunch we had an English muffin with peanut butter for supper. We watched a Hallmark movie, Bull, All Rise, The Good Doctor, and 20-20 this evening. Thank you God for guiding us through this day and time spent with my accountability group.   

Cheri fixed a big breakfast of scrambled eggs with sausage, English muffin with blackberry jam, orange juice, and coffee. It was nice to have breakfast with Cheri to visit and relax. I headed out for my 9:00 am PT appointment, had another workout on my shoulder. Cheri had a lab appointment this morning and also did some shopping while she was out. I also had a 10:30 am appointment to do some electrical work in Grand Horizon. I removed an outside electrical circuit that was no longer used. I was back home by noon. Cheri fixed us a grilled cheese sandwich for lunch. After lunch I copied some paper work for Cheri, she has been waiting a few days for me to get it done. I had planned on doing some work outside but run out of energy so the recliner won out. I tried to do some reading but ended up taking a nap. Cheri fixed us spaghetti and garlic toast for supper. Around 6:30 pm we took a golf cart ride around the park. After our ride we settled in for an evening of TV watching some recorded shows. Thank you God for taking care of today and keeping us healthy and safe.     

I am still not able to do the morning walk. Just can’t get rid of the back and leg pain. I am still doing all the exercises but doesn’t seem to be improving. We headed out to church at 9:30 am. Cheri stayed in the church kitchen to help prepare the Linger Longer lunch. Pastor Randy’s message was titled “A Ministry like None Other” from Colossians 1:24-29. Our Sunday school lesson was titled “Sacrificed” from Luke 23:33-46. Jesus’ death provides salvation to all who trust in him. After Sunday school we all headed over to the fellowship hall for our Linger Longer lunch. It was a good time to be able to visit with church friends. Later we took some of the food and went to see Art and Ruby who has been shut in from the virus and health problems. It has been over a year since we have seen them. We had a good visit and plan on going out for dinner next week. Art is in his mid 90’s and has some health issues and not able to get out much. It was after 4:00 pm when we got home. I settled in to watch the NASCAR race. Cheri watched some of the race along with a nap. We didn’t have any supper because of the big lunch. But did have a piece of leftover cake from Linger Longer. After the race we watched the rest of Dateline that we couldn’t finish last night. We also watched a movie we had recorded. Thank you God for a blessed day to spend with you and church friends.      

Cheri fixed us pancakes for breakfast with juice and coffee. We headed out at 9:15 am to Dick and Linda’s (church friends). The four of us left with Dick driving to Odessa to visit the Suncoast Center for scale modular railroading. We were there a few years ago and enjoyed it so much that we wanted Dick and Linda to see it. We spent close to two hours looking at all of the miniature trains and village layouts. From there we headed to Tarpon Springs which is the sponge capital and is a Greek city. We found a place to eat a late lunch. We were going to do some shopping after lunch but was too busy to get around in the stores, so we headed home. It was a little after 4:00 pm when we got home. Cheri went to work making an apple cake to take for our Linger Longer after Sunday school tomorrow. We were going to go for a ride around the park but was too tired to do it. We watched a couple episodes of Blue Bloods and started watching Dateline but couldn’t stay awake for the whole show. Thank you God for spending time with church friends and safe travels.

Cheri and I left at 7:15 am heading out for breakfast at Sunrise Eatery. We had another good breakfast. Since the lifting of some of the virus rules Sunrise Eatery as brought back more tables. But everyone is still wearing masks. On the way home we made a stop at Walgreens to pick up some pain medicine for my back and shoulder and also for Cheri’s Knee. When we got home Cheri continued with laundry and paper work to send to Nikki. I went out and cleaned the rain gutters and then decided to go up on the roof and clean off all the debris from the tree. I use a leaf rake to do that. Then I use the leaf blower to blow off the carport. But with the carport extension the blower doesn’t get it all the way to the gutter. So I made a trip over to Lowes dreaming about how I could make an extension for the blower. Well I did come up with an idea and bought the parts to make the extension. I must say it did work pretty well. It was 4:30 pm before I got done. While I was taking a shower Cheri started supper making us philly cheesesteak sandwiches. We watched FBI Most wanted while having our supper in front of the TV. Later we took a golf cart ride around the park, looks like it could be a daily thing to do. When we got home it was more TV before calling it a night. Thank you God for guiding us through this day keeping us healthy and safe.

Not much going on today. I did go for my 7:00 am PT and got worked over pretty good. When I got home Cheri had started the laundry and we sat down and had coffee together. I left the house at 9:15 am for an appointment over in Tampa Bay country to repair a toilet with a stop at Lowes on the way for parts. It wasn’t anything serious just needed in new parts in the toilet. I was back home by 11:30 am. Cheri had finished the laundry and was doing some ironing. After lunch I planned on working outside but ended up resting before going for a haircut. We had leftover roast beef, potatoes, carrots, onions, and gravy for supper. After supper we took a golf cart ride around the park. Cheri counted ten houses for sale and three more had sold signs in the window. After our ride we settled in for an evening of TV watching the three Chicago shows before calling it a night. Thank you God for a blessed day.     

I had 10:00 am appointment in Tampa Bay country to remove the new vanity top I installed a few week ago. She isn’t happy with the finish on the sink, continues to have water spots that can’t be removed. So I took her to Lakeland Granite. She picked out a piece of granite to have a new vanity top made with an under mount porcelain sink. It will be ready to pick up next Wednesday. We stopped at Lowes to return the old vanity top. I thought maybe we would have trouble returning it but no problem. Gayloria bought us a late lunch at Jersey Mike’s. It was a long day and didn’t get home until 5:00 pm. Then I took the truck and car through the carwash to remove the love bugs we had collected, think the love bug season is over as I didn’t see any today in our travels. Cheri had been busy with her normal Wednesday housework and started a roast beef in the crockpot. She also had a dentist appointment to get a new crown. It was after 6:00 pm when we sat down for supper. After supper we took a golf cart ride around the park and met Dennis coming back from the pool. We talked for a bit and was going to go and get Sue and come over for a visit. It was after 9:00 pm when they left so it was a short evening of TV. Thank you God for helping Gayloria and safe travels.    

The latest vanity top is removed.

I was out the door at 6:30 am heading to Dade City for my accountability group breakfast and Bible study. We studied the first part of Acts chapter 16. After Bible study I headed for my VA Dermatology appointment. On the way I got a call from Mike and Pam wanting to go out for lunch. So I called Cheri to let her know and said that she was getting ready to start a roost beef in the crockpot and will wait until tomorrow for it. Cheri had been busy with her exercises and Tuesday housework. We met Mike and Pam at 1:00 pm for a late lunch. It has been well over a year since we had lunch together. It was so good to be able to have lunch and visit with them. I went back to the couple that wanted me to install a new front door and gave them some ideas on how they could keep the door they have. I think they will be doing what I suggested. I was bad this afternoon as I just didn’t have the energy to do my exercises. I tried to do some reading but that was short because I couldn’t stay awake. After a nap Cheri fixed us and English muffin with peanut butter for supper along with a chocolate chip cookie. Our weather continues to be hot and humid but did get a quick shower that lasted all of a minute. Also had trouble getting my nose to stop bleeding from the biopsy this afternoon and evening. Cheri cleaned me up and put a larger band aid on which help to stop the bleeding. Thank you God for time spent with you and friends today.  

I am still not walking and the back, hip, and leg pain doesn’t seem to be getting any better. I still do the daily exercises for my shoulder and back. This morning I had PT and they worked me over pretty good. On the way home I filled the truck with gas. I had good intentions to work outside and to do some cleaning in my work area. But when I got home I headed to the recliner and that is where I stayed all day except for going and looking at a project of changing a front door. Most of our afternoon and evening was spent reading, napping, and watching TV. Cheri fixed us the leftover Lasngua for supper. Thank you God for taking care of us today.

Today was Dad’s birthday, he has been gone for 12 years. I wish every Mother a Happy Mother’s Day. As Pastor Randy said this morning none of us could be here without a mother. Pastor Randy’s message was titled “Reconciled in Christ” from Colossians 1:20-23. Our Sunday school lesson was titled “Denied” from Luke 22:54-62. Denying Jesus leads to sorrow and guilt. After Sunday school Cheri and I went through the new Oasis Pregnancy Center in Building B. Before leaving the parking lot we ordered the pizza from Domino’s to be picked up on the way home. Cheri got an e-mail from Kari washing her a happy Mother’s Day. Nikki called this afternoon and visited for over an hour. Darren tried to do a video call but it didn’t come through. We watched a movie this afternoon or I should say Cheri did because I napped through most of it. After Nikki’s call I headed to the bedroom to watch the NASCAR race while Cheri watched movies in the living room. Thank you God for a day spent with you and church friends.

New flowers in front of the house.

It was another beautiful day with temp in low 80’s and no humidity. After breakfast and coffee Cheri and I headed to Wesley Chapel with a stop at the UPS store to send some mail to Darren. I don’t know why but the UPS store in Zephyrhills won’t send anything to Mexico but the one in Wesley Chapel does. On the way home we stopped at Lowes to get a can of clear spray paint to clear coat Cheri’s new bicycle decoration. After lunch I sprayed the bike and made a spot for it outside the front door. I had to move a plant further out and made a foundation for the bicycle and fastening it to the bricks. I also readjusted the water drips to the new flowers, as a couple of them wasn’t getting enough water. I was done with work by 3:00 pm and ready for a shower. For Supper Cheri baked the lasagna that the made a couple days ago along with garlic English muffins. Around 7:30 pm we did something we have never done before, we took a ride round the park in the golf cart. The rest of the evening was spent watching TV. Thank you God for helping us through this day keeping us healthy and safe.

Cheri's bicycle.

We went out for breakfast this morning, wanted to make up for the bad breakfast yesterday morning. We went to Sunrise Eatery. It has been over a year and a half since we have been there. We had heard rumors that the waitress didn’t wear mask and it was crowded. Well it wasn’t true, all the waitress were wearing mask and half of the tables had been removed and panels installed between the booths. The only closeness was outside people waiting to get in. We had an excellent breakfast and great service. When we got home Cheri continued with laundry and both of us doing our exercises. I worked on getting the rope lighting reinstalled, glad to have that done. This afternoon we made a trip to Lakeland Granite and Marble to check out a vanity counter top to be made with a Kohler sink. It would be for the lady I installed the one piece vanity top for a couple weeks ago. She isn’t happy with it because of water spots. So I may be removing it and returning it to Lowes. She now has her mine set on a Kohler sink. After that we headed to Plant City to shop at Southern Hospitality. Cheri has been wanting a bicycle decoration to put outside with flowers. She has talked about it for a long time and today she found one that she wanted. After that we stopped at Johnson’s BQ for supper. It has been a long time since we have been there and was very good. It was a little passed 5:00 pm when we got home. We settled in for an evening of TV and a piece of apple pie. Thank you God for a guiding us through this day with shopping and safe travels.

Cheri's Bicycle.

I headed out for my 7:00 am PT and got worked over pretty good. I will say my shoulder is starting to feel some better. I didn’t eat breakfast before I went to PT and when I got home Cheri hadn’t had breakfast so we headed out to Dade City to have breakfast at IHOP. We should have stayed home. It was really bad, didn’t think anyone could destroy a breakfast but I am here to tell you it happened today. We were both pretty depressed when we got home. Funny how we let a little thing like can ruin your whole day. Cheri did her exercises, laundry, made an apple pie, and lasagna to have for supper. I went over to Mike’s to get is security camera working. Then to Donna’s to shut off the water and make sure the hot water heater was turned off. We got our lawn contract and the price has gone up to $450 for the year. So decided to search on line for a used lawn mower. I found one in Lakeland and made arrangements to meet at Sam’s Club and check it out. It was old but seem to be in good working order so we bought it. It was around 5:30 pm when we got home. We weren’t very hungry so decided to save the lasagna for tomorrow night. Cheri made us hot ham sandwiches. This evening we watched the Chicago shows, Swat, and Seal Team. Thank you God for a blessed day.    

I was slow getting around this morning, pushing myself to get stuff done. Cheri and I were both doing our exercises at the same time. When she got done she headed out for her haircut and a stop at Winn Dixie for some groceries. I worked on cleaning out the shower drain as it was draining slowly. With a little baking soda, vinegar, and bowling hot water to clean out the soap build up and now is draining good again. About a year ago I installed a new headlight assembly in the truck and never took time to adjust the light as it was aiming low, well today was the day to get it adjusted. It didn’t take long, just something I kept putting off. This afternoon Cheri and I went over to Lowes so I could get some additional parts for the flower drip system. We also bought new flowers for the front of the house. When we got home I repaired the drip system and to the flowers set in place. It was another hot and humid day with a high temp of 87 degrees. Cheri fixed us an omelet, English muffin with jam, and orange juice for supper. It was a normal evening of watching FBI, FBI Most Wanted, and a movie. Thank you God for a guiding us through this day keeping us healthy and safe.   

I forgot to mention yesterday when we went to Sam’s Club that the love bugs are back as we collected some on the car. I also got some on the truck today. I was out the door at 6:30 am heading to Dade City for my accountability group breakfast and Bible study. We finished studying Acts chapter 15. There is still a problem with the hot water heater in the Sunday school building. The thermostat breaker was tripped again. So after Bible study I changed the thermostat, now wait and see if that cured the problem. When I got home I tried to do my exercises but was light headed and was worse when I tried to lay down. So no exercises until later this afternoon when I felt some better. So I didn’t get any work done today. Cheri went for her haircut but had the wrong day and it is tomorrow. But we are sure that the hair dresser put the wrong day on the card. Anyway she will go tomorrow. Late this afternoon Donna Perkins called and said that we could come and pick up the golf cart. So we went to get it and had a short visit with Donna and Kathy as they leave tomorrow morning. Cheri made me a batch of chocolate chip cookies. I finished the novel I have been trying to read the last few weeks. For supper Cheri fixed the leftover ribs and mashed potatoes. This evening we watched Bull, All Rise, and a movie. Thank you God for helping us though this day.    

Still not doing the morning walk. I had a 9:00 am PT appointment this morning and had another workout. When I got home Cheri and I decided to go to Sam’s Club to get a few things that we needed. But as usual we brought a lot more than we figured on. It was 12:30 pm when we got home. It was hot and humid today with a high of 97 degrees. So I decided I didn’t need to go outside to do any work. Cheri and I both read our novels this afternoon and a nap for me. Cheri fixed us chicken wraps for supper along with a dish of ice cream. This evening we watched NCIS LA, NCIS New Orleans, and a Hallmark movie. So it was a lazy day for us. Thank you God for relaxing day.

Today was no different from last Sunday except it was a high of 90 degrees and high humidity. We left at 9:30 am for church. Pastor Randy’s message was titled “No One like Him” from Colossians 1:15-19. Our Sunday school lesson was titled “Willing” from Luke 22:41-53. Before we left the church parking lot I ordered pizza from Domino’s to pick up on the way home. It was around 1:15 pm when we got home. We watched the rest of Magnum that we couldn’t stay awake for last night and a Hallmark movie before it was time for me to watch the NASCAR race while Cheri read her novel. We had an Italian sandwich that we got with the pizza for supper. We watched another Hallmark movie before calling it a night. I was too lazy to do my exercises today but Cheri did hers. Thank you God for a blessed day and time spent with you and friends.

Another month has passed and we are 1/3 of the way through the year. I am still not walking and the leg pain doesn’t seem to be getting any better. Cheri and I both continue to do our exercises each day. I was slow getting around this morning. I finally got out and finished the electrical project, good to have it done. I also got the outdoor security camera reinstalled and working. My next project is to get the rope lights reinstalled. I quit work early and after my shower I took a nap and managed to do some reading. Cheri was busy doing paper work and hopes she will be done in another day. Cheri fixed us French toast and sausage for supper. We watched three movies this evening. Thank you God for being with us and keeping us healthy and safe.

Cheri and I left the house at 8:30 am heading over near Tampa Bay country to have breakfast at Denny’s. After breakfast we went over to where I put in the new vanity top a couple weeks ago. Well she isn’t happy with it has it has water spots in the sink that don’t want to come out. The main reason is I told her it had to be sealed and she didn’t do it. She is thinking to have me remove it and return it to Lowes, which is if she can find what she wants. From there we went back to see Bob and Ida Mae bringing over Mom’s walker for Ida Mae to use. It was noon when we got home. No lunch because of the big breakfast. We didn’t get our exercises done before we left so we got to them when we got home. Then Cheri finished the laundry and I went out to work on the electrical project. Donna Perkins and her daughter picked us up at 4:30 pm and took us out for dinner at Calver’s to have fish and a fudge sundae. We had a good visit as Donna and Kathy will be leaving to go back north for the summer. It was 7:00 pm when we got home. Not a good night for TV, couldn’t find anything worth watching. Thank you God for a blessed day spending time with friends.
