I was going to sleep in
this morning then I remembered that I didn’t set the recyclables out last night
and they always come around 6:30 am. So I got up at my usual time and got the recyclables
set out, wouldn’t you know it they didn’t come until round 10:00 am. It was on
the cold side again this morning and the weather report said rain and then
turning colder. I had wanted to wash the car inside and out today. Around 11:00
am the sun came out and had warmed up enough that I did wash and detailed the
car. It was a bigger job than I thought it would be. It was late afternoon when
I got done. Cheri did what Cheri usually does on Wednesday, vacuuming and
dusting, and Bible study for our Life Group this evening. We met Mike and Pam at
Walgreens at 5:15 pm and rode with them to Wendy’s where we met Ron and Sandy
for supper and a visit before going to Ron and Sandy’s for our Life Group gathering.
It was another great evening with Life Group friends and learning Gods word.
Our lesson this evening was about Rahab. We never did get the rain today but I
did wake up around 1:00 am and it was raining pretty hard.

It was another 40 degree
morning and then warmed slowly to around 64 degrees and was windy. I had to get
around early again this morning as I had to pick Grandma up at 8:45 am for her
out patient C-scan for her sinuses that she is having a problem with. Then it
was a trip to the other end of the hospital for her bone density test. After all
was said and done it was around 11:30 am when I got home. I had gotten a call
from Ron this morning and was telling me they have an electrical problem. The electrical
breaker for their sunroom and patio had tripped and not able to reset it. Ron
thought it might be a weak breaker, so I took my collection of breakers and
went to check out their problem. Well the problem wasn’t the breaker, after
doing some isolation I found the problem is in the wiring on the patio. I disconnected
the wiring to the patio so they could have power in the sunroom. I didn’t have
time to dig into the problem and will go back next week to fix it. On the way
home I stopped by Larry and Denise’s to see it they got the concrete for their
driveway and patio poured. It was all done and the forms had been removed,
looks really good, wish I would have had them do mine as it turned out pretty
bad. When I got home I had an hour to rest before going to church for men’s
night out. Cheri did her usual Tuesday house work and some more work on taxes
as we got some of what we needed in the mail today. She also spent time reading
and watching TV.

I was up a little earlier
today as I had to have Grandma to the doctor’s office by 8:50 am for her
fasting lab. So I didn’t get my exercise done until I got back home. We did
some more work on taxes and still need a few things to come before we can
finish them. When I was putting up the wall in the sunroom I knocked Cheri’s porcelain
pelican off the cabinet and broke it. I felt really bad because I know Cheri
really liked the pelican. So today I got out the glue and put Mr. Pelican back
together again. This afternoon we went to Wesley Chapel to see the movie Black
and White. It is a must see movie. It was pretty warm this morning and then by
noon we got rain and the temp started going south for the rest of the day. I thought
we might get a call from Home Depot on the kitchen cabinets or a call from the
guy to give us an estimate on the carport, but nothing. That’s one thing I have
found out about being in Florida people will make appointments with you and never
show up and they don’t even call to tell you they can’t make it. Then I feel it
time to look for another vendor but the same thing happens all over again.

Hard to believe we are in
February already. Not sure where January went so fast. We picked up Grandma and
took her to church with us. I had e-mailed Pastor Randy for his message notes
and got a return e-mail telling me he was out of town spending today with his
daughter who had a baby on Saturday. So Pastor Carl was going to deliver the
message. Pastor Randy said that he would get in touch with Pastor Carl to see
if he had message notes that Grandma could have to read. Well we didn’t get and
answer from Pastor Carl. So it was a hard day for Grandma. The message was hard
to follow and Cheri couldn’t really write anything for Grandma. Sunday school
was really good, studied Nehemiah 7:1-8. It was just Grandma, Cheri and me for
lunch today. So we thought that as long as it was just the three of us we would
try to get into ABC Pizza for lunch. We did get the last booth so that was good
that we didn’t have to wait. After we dropped Grandma off at home we went to
Wal-Mart to get Grandma’s groceries and medicine. Being Sunday Wal-Mart was
really busy. After all was said and done it was around 2:30 pm when we arrived
home. I tried to do some Bible study but was tired and ended up taking a nap.
Cheri was reading and playing on her I-Pad. After my nap we watched some TV and
then got ready to watch the Super Bowl. Which I thought was a big disappointment;
even the advertisement wasn’t that good. I didn’t care for the half time music
but thought the lighting effects were great.

Cheri and I spent the
morning with Bible study. We had our Sunday school lesson to go over, worked on
our Life Group daily lesson, and did some reading and internet searching for our
Thursday Bible Study Group. At 12:30 pm we picked up Larry and Denise and
headed to Dade City for the Kumquat Festival. It is a one day event that draws
over 40,000 people. This year it seemed like there were over 50,000. There are vendors
lined up on all the streets downtown, if I was to guess there were somewhere
around 300 selling anything and everything. Cheri and Denise shopped the
vendors and Larry and I went to the car show. There had to be over 200 cars for
the show. When we were done with the car show we sat by the court house and listened
to a band play, it mainly to sit and rest while the girls were shopping. There
were several bands playing in different areas. On the way home we stopped at a
couple of second hand stores. Denise was looking for some special glasses for
smoothies. She did find one glass and a quilt rack she bought. We went to Sonny’s
Barbeque for supper and then back to Larry and Denise’s to play one game of
cards. It was a great day spending time with God and friends.
