I wasn’t in any hurry to get around this morning as I didn’t have to be at work until 10:00 am. So I was able to get some computer work done. Cheri was busy early getting the laundry done along with the usual Thursday house work. Then spent a lot of time working on the puzzle which is going much slower because so many of the pieces are the same color. I did work over to Donna’s today and got the last coat of plaster done. When I got home it was near noon so Cheri fixed us a grilled ham and cheese sandwich along with some chips and fruit salad. Then I went out and worked on the camper cabinet. I spent the whole afternoon sanding. I finished around 4:00 pm. After my shower and getting cleaned up it was time for the recliner. Cheri fixed us a cheese burger, carrots, chips, and the last of the fruit salad for supper. This evening we watched Chicago Fire, Chicago Med, Chicago Police, and a couple of remodeling shows. Thank you God for guiding us through this day and keeping us safe from the COVID-19. Still having trouble uploading pictures. Something I need to work on, not sure what has happened.

Cheri fixed us a big breakfast of eggs, bacon, hash browns, English muffin, and juice. The only part that I did was make the coffee which I do every morning. At 10:00 am I went over to Donna’s and put on the second coat of plaster and had a nice visit with Donna. When I got home I went to work on the cabinet for the camper. I got everything cut out. I need to do a lot of sanding before I can put all the pieces together. I was done by 3:00 pm. It seems nice to be done work earlier. After my shower I headed for the recliner. Cheri was busy with the Wednesday house work, making me chocolate chip cookies, and working on the puzzle. It is taking her a lot more time now on puzzle because there is a lot of green pieces to put in. Our daughter posted on Facebook that she feels like she is sixteen and as gas is cheap and she is grounded (make me laugh). For supper Cheri fixed us chicken tenders, green beans, fruit salad, fresh baked biscuits, and chocolate chip cookies for dessert. This evening we watch a couple of movies we streamed off of Amazon which weren’t very good. Thank you God for a blessed day and keeping us healthy through these trying time. Was going upload some pictures of the camper cabinet but can't seem to get it done today.

My day started with a trip to Wal-Mart to get groceries. The store opened at 6:00 am for seniors for an hour before any others can go in and I got there about 5:50 am. There was already a long line waiting for the store to open. Well Cheri made me a detailed list so I would get all the right things. While waiting in I realized I had left the list in the car and they were now letting people in. The guy behind me said that he would save my place in line. So I ran to the car for the list and ran back to the line and made it just in time to get in the store. Yes I did have my mask and gloves on as did most of the people. I got to a point where I needed to call Cheri and ask her about something she wanted. Well I went for my phone and it was gone. Which means I lost it in the parking lot. After I got all the groceries I ask at the service desk if anyone had turned in a phone. The Lady said yes but it wasn’t my phone. After I got home and Cheri and I got everything put away I called my phone and didn’t get an answer but left a message. About half an hour later Cheri got a call from Charlie Rodgers our Sunday school teacher saying he had good news that my phone was at Wal-Mart. The last call I got yesterday was from Pastor Randy, so that was the number they called. Well Pastor Randy didn’t have Cheri’s number so he called Charlie and had him call Cheri. So I headed back to Wal-Mart to pick up my phone. That is why the blog was late getting done yesterday. Cheri was busy today making an omelet for a late breakfast, her normal Tuesday house work, working on the puzzle, fixing us a New York strip steak and baked potatoes for supper. I went over to Donna’s to put on another coat of plaster but the one I put on yesterday wasn’t dry, so that will have to wait until tomorrow. Back home I worked on the cabinet I am building for the camper. I got the door frames build and all the routing done. By 2:30 pm I felt that I had done enough for the day. I headed for the shower as I was full of sawdust from the sawing and routing. It was a normal evening of TV and now are looking for other shows to watch as we have most all the recordings watched. We had a bowl of ice cream for our evening treat. Thank you God for guiding us through this day and finding my phone.

Yes I know I am really late with the blog for today. I worked over at Donna’s this morning and got a coat of plater on the wall in the laundry room. I also sat and visited with Donna for a while. I really didn’t feel like doing any work today so when I got home from Donna’s I headed to the recliner to rest. I actually took a nap before lunch time. I felt better after lunch and decided to go out and work on the cabinet for the camper. I was done by 4:00 pm and ready for a shower to get cleaned up for the day as I had a lot sawdust all over me. Cheri made a batch of stovetop cookies and for supper and fixed fresh fried potatoes and onions with milk gravy along with ham.  Cheri worked all day on puzzle and is making great progress. It was a normal evening of TV. Thank you God for taking care of us today and continue surrounding our family, friends, and love ones and keep the COVID-19 away.

Cheri working on the new puzzle.

More to do.

We left the house at 8:25 am for the drive in church at the church property. There were 117 cars which made for a nice service. Pastor Randy message was from 1 Peter 4:12-19. Please take time to read this and pray. We had our Sunday school lesson on Zoom with Charlie Rodgers. Our lesson today was from Romans 6:1-14 titled “Free”. All who accept the gospel find freedom from the guilt of sin. This afternoon Cheri worked on the puzzle. I did some more Sudoku Puzzles and then napped the rest of the afternoon. We had our normal Sunday pizza for supper. Just another evening of TV. Thank you God for spending time with you and church friends.
