Gay Feb-4-18


Grandma had planned on
going to church with us but got an e-mail this morning that she decided to stay
home, said that she was ok and thought it was going to be a cold morning and
doesn’t like going out when it is cold. On the way home we stopped and to see
her and deliver some groceries. Lately I have been really tired and while
trying to watch some TV this afternoon I fell asleep and slept for over three
hours. Cheri was watching some Hallmark movies. We got a call from Ron and Mary
Jo Walton (friends from our 2008 Alaskan trip) that they will be here around
11:00 am tomorrow. Cheri fixed us the usual Sunday night pizza for dinner. I
checked on the Super Bowl a few time throughout the evening and went to bed
before it was over. We had a light rain that started around noon today and got
heaver into the evening. I checked the rain gauge and we received one inch.

I left at 7:30 am and
headed back to church for the rest of the Johnny Hunt conference. They had
coffee and donuts for us before the first break out session at 8:00 am. The
conference got over at 12:15 pm. It was an enjoyable time and got to meet some
new men that go to early Sunday school and late church. Cheri spent most of her
day in the sewing room trying to get back into the swing of some projects that
she started some time ago. When I got home I spent most of the afternoon
working on the computer along with some other paper work. Around 3:00 pm we
both needed to relax in our recliners. We both took a short nap while trying to
watch some TV. Around 4:30 pm I went out and fired up the grill to grill a
couple of ribeye steaks for dinner. At 6:30 pm Larry and Denise came over to
play cards. We played two games of Hand, Knee, and Foot which Cheri and Denise
won by a large margin. They were really happy as it has been a long time since
they last won. Thank you God for a blessed day.

I guess the ground hog saw
his shadow and we have six more weeks of winter. I never could understand the
shadow thing. I would think that if he saw his shadow the sun is out and would
mean less winter and when he doesn’t see is shadow means it is gloomy and maybe
even snowing and to me that would mean more winter, so much for what I think.
It was a non-working day for me. It seemed nice to have a day off. I did go for
my accountability breakfast and Bible study. I was back home by 8:30 am and had
a good Bible study. I unloaded the truck and then Cheri and I loaded the mattress
and box springs and took them to a center that helps needy families and they
were happy to get it. Our next stop was to get another temp tag for the truck
as after two months I still don’t have the license plate. Then we stopped at
Ruby Tuesday to have their salad bar and soup but found that the promotional
was over so we headed home for lunch. After lunch we headed to Plant City to
return a box of flooring that I didn’t need for the bathroom I had done. Then
it was on to Lakeland to stop at the south side Hobby Lobby to see if Cheri
could get the boxes she wants and no luck so on to the north side store where
she found what she wanted, happy lady. We were back home by 2:45 pm. I had
bought some new containers and spent some time packing tools which will make it
easier to put them in the truck and easier for me to find what I need when on
the job. Late this afternoon I had to be in church for the Johnny Hunt conference.
It started at 5:30 pm with a steak dinner and then the live streamed
conference. It is very interesting and didn’t get home until 10:30 pm.

Hard to believe January is
gone. I feel like I am on a slippery slope as time seems to be going faster,
maybe it is because I am slower. It was laundry day for Cheri and she also went
for her haircut along with some other shopping. I left the house at 9:00 am and
went to Lowe’s to pick up paint and other supplies, waited 45 minutes at the
paint department. I finally got work at 10:00 am. It was a busy day but things
went will. By 6:00 pm I had the job done except caulking around the shower and
that has to wait a few days for the shower panel’s adhesive to dry. It was
around 6:15 pm when I got home and didn’t feel like unloading the truck. Once
again I was ready for a good hot shower which always makes me feel better.
Cheri fixed us a French bread loaf for dinner, another one of my favorites.
Later while watching TV we had some lemon bars that Cheri had made. Thank you
God for guiding us through another day.

It was another cool
morning of 43 degrees. I think this is the coldest winter we have had since we
have been in Florida. I thought I was going to have short work day and would be
done before noon. Well I got a call from the guy I was supposed to work for and
was wondering where I was. I guess I miss understood when he called me last
night and said that the job was done. What he was telling me was that the base
of the new shower was in and the plumbing was done. So I told him I would be
there at noon. I worked on the project until 6:00 pm and will be going back
tomorrow morning. I was really tired when I got home and was ready for the hot
shower. Cheri had a busy day taking Grandma for her doctor’s appointment
getting her face mapped for the radiation treatments she will be having three
days a week. Cheri also stopped at the grocery store to pick up a couple of
things Grandma needed. Cheri was trying to get morning appointment set up for
Grandma and now Grandma said she wants afternoon appointments. So Cheri called
the doctor’s office and told them the change that Grandma wanted and is waiting
to see what appointment time will be. We had leftovers for dinner which were
very good. It was a short evening for me as I was very tired from the day’s
work and went to bed early. Thank you God for guiding us through another day.
