Well
I canceled the motorcycle ride today as there were rain showers in the forecast,
good thing I did as around 10:00 am we got a hard rain for about half an hour.
The rest of the day was better but short on sunshine. I worked on washing the
van as it was a big job. It had an oil film on it from the oil leak we had. I
had to quit around 11:30 am before I got done, my back wouldn’t take anymore.
So we had an early lunch before I went back out to finish it. It was about more
then I could handle. I still don’t have what it takes to get anything done
anymore. Cheri spent her time in the sewing room and I can now see where she is
making some progress on the wall hanging. There were times when I think she was
ready to pull her hair out. She does have a lot of determination and I knew she
would get it all figured out. Cheri had an appointment for her annual physical
this afternoon and came home with good results. Yesterday we got a call from an
RV broker with an offer for our truck and 5th wheel, still was
waiting for a call from Lazy Days with an offer and that call came late this
afternoon, they were way out of the ball park and I think they just want us to
give it to them as their offer was an insult. We had gone to the car repair
shop to see what we owed for the oil leak repair and to make an appointment to
finish the repair. He told me there was no charge as it took him so long to fix
it and have an appointment to take it back next Tuesday. After we left I told
Cheri that wasn’t right that we should at least pay for the parts he used. We
will settle up with him next Tuesday after he finishes the repair.

It
was another 34 degree morning and never got out of the 50’s today, also was
breezy. There wasn’t anything we need to do outside so we stayed in where it
was warm. Cheri spent most of her time in the sewing room working on a wall
hanging. It has been quite the challenge for her. I spent most of the day on
the computer, learning about seeker friendly churches. In the last year we have
been unhappy with the direction our church seems to be going. So it was time to
do some soul searching. I wasn’t happy about what I found on the internet. If
you have any droughts about your church, Google seeker friendly churches and
you will find out all sorts of information. There is some good information out
there to use as a guild on how your church is doing. We had a nice hot bowl of
soup for lunch which goes really well on a cold day. Tomorrow is supposed to be
back up in the mid 70’s. I have a motorcycle ride planed for tomorrow and it
should be a good day although they do have a 20 percent chance of rain. Later
this afternoon we wrapped up in our recliner blankets and watch some TV along
with a nap. It was a nice relaxing day in the Sharp house.

Cold
this morning, 34 degrees and the temp never got out of the 50’s today. We were
slow getting around this morning as we knew we weren’t going out for anything.
Late forenoon Larry and Denise came over to see what we were doing. I was
working on the computer trying to get some prices on how much our 5th
wheel is worth. The consignment place where we have it isn’t getting anywhere
with it, after almost six months it is time to do something else. So after
lunch the four of us went to Lazy Days and Camping World to see how much we
could get out of it by selling it to them. Now we have to wait for them to get
back to us, praying for good results. It will take a couple of days before we
hear anything. We got back home around 3:00 pm. Cheri started a crock pot cheesy
cauliflower soup to have for supper. After she got that done we sat down and
play three games of Pinochle and after supper we played a game of Hand, Knee,
and Foot. It was the girl’s night as they won three of the four games.

Much
warmer this morning and it was Cheri’s first day back at the pool since she has
been sick. Well she was home early as she said the water was cold and she
couldn’t stand it so they sat in the hot tub for a while. I worked on the van
doing some cleaning inside until noon. Cheri had a massage appointment this
afternoon. I was going to work on my paver project in front of the shed but we
got rain and it was too wet to do anything. So I worked in the shed sorting
through some more of the tubs that I had stuff stored in. I also washed up the
shop rags. When Cheri got home we watched a movie and then I started the grill
to do some brats and steak. Cheri fixed some potatoes and onions to go along
with the steak. She also made some sticky buns which were very good. I moved a
couple of plants inside as it is supposed to get done in the low 30’s tonight. It
was already in the low 40’s when we went to bed.

We
have experienced the cold weather for the last week, nothing like they are
having in the north but cold by Florida standards. Any way it was a very warm
day today with a temp in the mid 80’s with a lot of sunshine. I was really
looking forward to church today because of the sermon last week was so
inspiring, well I was in for a big disappointment, not a good sermon today.
After church five of us went out for lunch at a new restaurant in Zephyrhills
called Island Breeze Cuban Café. We had an excellent meal and will be going
back again. After we dropped off Grandma we went to Wal-Mart to get some
groceries, thought that on Sunday it wouldn’t be so busy, wrong again, really
busy. I spent the rest of the afternoon watching football and Cheri curled up
with a book. The Packer lost their game so football season is over for me.
