I took Cheri for her haircut this morning. When we got home Cheri did her Tuesday house work and then went to the sewing room. I went up to Jan’s to repair the leaking toilet, had to put in a new water fill valve. I also replaced the landscape pavers that I had cut a section out of for water drainage. I glued the one I broke and replaced it with a good one that I took home and cut the section out of it. Then it was back to Jan’s to install it and do the chalking along the three pavers I replaced. Now she shouldn’t have any more problems with water pooling in the carport. When I got home I worked on installing the hardware on the rollout drawers. Then it was time to get cleaned up and take Grandma and myself for haircuts. This evening was men’s night out at church. We had a meal of hotdogs, hamburgers, fries, and baked beans. Our speaker for the evening was Poke county sheriff Grady Judd. He is a devoted Christian and gave his testimony and how God has worked in his life. It was also ladies night out for our Sunday school class. They all went out to eat at a new Mexican restaurant in Dade City. When we got home it was time to watch Dancing with the Stars which we had recorded.

I knew I wasn’t going to get much work done this morning as I had a 9:30 am follow up dentist appointment. When I had my teeth cleaned last week they found bump on the gum of my front tooth. The x-ray didn’t show anything and it hadn’t change from last week so they wanted me to make an appointment with a specialist in Wesley Chapel. When I got home Cheri called and got me in for a 1:00 pm appointment. Cheri worked in the sewing room this morning and said that she would go with me for my appointment. It turned out that I had an abbesses in the root of the tooth and had to have a root canal done. Within half an hour I was done and two hundred and fifty dollars poorer plus what the insurance payed for. We were near Sam’s Club so we stopped and got some cereal and some of their great ribs. Then we had to make a stop a Wal-Mart to pick up some antibiotics for me. After all was said and done it was near 4:00 pm when we finally got home. We had some of the Sam’s Club ribs and a salad for supper (They still have the best ribs). We settled in for an evening of TV and of course to watch Dancing with the Stars. My day didn’t go as I had planned which shows us that God is the one that is in control of what we do. Thank you God for taking care of us.

This Sunday was no different than last Sunday. Church and Sunday school were both very good. We passed on lunch today because they had some great snacks at Sunday school. On the way home we stopped at Wal-Mart and picked up medicine and groceries for Grandma. Stopped by her place to drop of the groceries and to see how she was doing. We couldn’t stay long as we had groceries in the car that we needed to get home and in the refrigerator. It was after 1:30 pm when we got home. This afternoon we settled in for some TV and nap time. I did struggle to stay awake to watch the NASCAR race which was very good. No football for me today as the Green Bay Packers have bye today. We had a rain storm come through this evening and received ½ inch.

I started the blog with Sept-31 but realized that couldn’t be right, something I never learned in school. Cheri fixed me biscuits and sausage gravy for breakfast. It is so nice of her to do it when she doesn’t like it. Cheri spent the day in her sewing room. I worked on painting the rollout drawers and did Bible study while each coat of paint dried. When the painting was done I worked on cutting the landscape pavers. I managed to get them cut without any more breakage. Later this afternoon we made a trip to Lowe’s to see about getting a new landscape paver to replace the one I broke yesterday. We didn’t find the paver at Lowe’s so we headed to Home Depot and stopped to check Larry and Denise’s house on the way. Home Depot didn’t have the paver either. So I guess I will have to check with some landscape yards to see if they carry them. Mike and Pam had told us about a new place to eat which is close to Home Depot and decided to give it a try. It is called Tokyo Grill & Sushi. The food was very good and reasonable. Our last stop was Winn Dixie to get some milk. When we got home it was time to watch the Wisconsin Badger football game that I was recording. It was a good game but the Badgers did lose. This evening we could hear thunder in the distance but never did get any rain.

The last day of September and I am not sure where it went. I had a crazy dream last night or maybe I should say a nightmare. I dreamed that I had just received the Republican nomination for president of the United States. I along with several people were having a meeting on how to promote my campaign when I woke up. So much for stupid dreams. Cheri was busy with her Friday house work and Laundry before heading to the sewing room. She is working on a new project for 4th of July. I worked on getting the rollout drawers sanded and ready for paint. Later this afternoon I went up to Jan’s and worked on repairing the sunroom roof. I also removed some of the concrete decorative pavers along the carport drive as they were causing the rain water to pool on the carport driveway. I brought them home and plan on cutting a section out of them so the water can run off the driveway. Well I tried to cut one when I got home and broke it. After that I decide to quit for the day. Still it was a good day God made and got a lot done.
