Once again my day started at 4:00 am. First my quite time with God. Then my two mile walk, make coffee, write the blog, and leave the house at 6:40 am. I was on my way to Dade City for our accountability group Bible study and breakfast. I stopped at Burger King for a breakfast sandwich and a large coffee. When I got to the Sunday school room I sat up the tables for our study group. By the time I got done some of the men started coming in. We studied John chapter 21. It was after 9:00 am when I got home. Cheri had already got the floors vacuumed and was drinking coffee when I got home. I brushed my teeth and shaved. Now I am ready to face the day. I went over to the camper and finished everything with it and is now ready to sell. Cheri had gotten the floors mopped while I was gone. Then I cleaned out the truck and reloaded it with things for a new project. I also cut back some of the flowers. After I was done I headed for the shower to get cleaned up. After lunch I went to see a lady here in the park, she had called me to let me know that she had some lumber in her shed that she want to give to me. After loading the lumber I sat and visited with her for a while. When I got home Cheri was working in her sewing room. We both headed to our recliners to rest and watch a movie. Well Cheri watched and napped. Cheri fixed us a hamburger and French fries for supper along with a couple of cookies. The rest of our evening was watching a movie and more Perry Mason. We also had a hard rain this afternoon but did last that long but got almost an inch. Yep I now have the new rain gauge up and can see how much we receive. Thank you God for a blessed day taking care of us. As you can see there are several things that I do each day that I don’t put in the blog.

Cheri had a busy day doing Monday house work, fixing BQ spare ribs in the air fryer grill and then in the crockpot, and working in her sewing room. Oh yes she made cookies today. She likes peanut butter cookies and I like chocolate chip cookies. So she compromised by making peanut butter cookies with chocolate chips in them. I worked on the bathroom vanity project today. It turned out to be a bigger job than I thought it would be. I had to move the water lines as the new vanity also had drawers in it and remove the mirror because the new vanity was taller. Long story short I finished the project around 4:00 pm. He still needs to paint and install a new floor. The BQ ribs Cheri fixed were really good. Later while watching TV we had dish of ice cream with a cookie. We watched a movie from Hallmark and another episode of Perry Mason. Thank you God for a blessed day.  

The vanity project is done.

Cheri informed me that her birthday will last for the whole month of Aug. I guess I will be busy taking care of her. I was up before 4:00 am and was done with my morning walk and quite time with God all before 6:00 am. We left at 9:20 am heading to church and Sunday school. Pastor Randy’s message was titled “Facing the Storm Head on” from 1 Peter 5:8-11. Our Sunday school lesson was titled “Staying Sober” from Proverbs 23:17-21, 29-35. God expects believers to be good stewards of the bodies He has given them. The last couple of Sundays we haven’t had our normal Sunday evening pizza because of eating a late lunch and not feeling like pizza for supper. So today we had the pizza for our late lunch and then just a muffin with peanut butter for our supper. I was able to watch the NASCAR race this afternoon and this evening a couple of movies and more Perry Mason. Thank you God for time spent with you and Christian friends.

First I want to wish my lovely wife a Happy Birthday. I left the house at 6:45 am to get Cheri’s birthday breakfast at the Hole in One Donut shop. I got an egg, cheese, sausage, croissant breakfast sandwich that we split and each of us a cinnamon roll. I had a 9:00 am appointment to install a new bathroom vanity. When I got there he had most of the old vanity out but knocked a hole in the wall. So today I worked on patching the wall and another place that was wet from the water leak. I got the wall repaired a coat of plater on which was as far as I could go today. Monday I will have to put on another coat of plaster and get the vanity ready to install. Cheri spent 90 percent of her day on the telephone. She got many birthday phone calls, e-mails, and wishes on Face Book. Around 4:00 pm I took the car and filled it with gas, stopped at Lowe’s, and a stop at Jersey Mike’s for subs to have for supper. This evening we watched a couple of movies and an old episode of Perry Mason. I recorded several episodes of Perry Mason so will be watching them for a while. Thank you God for this day and continue to keep love ones, friends, and family safe from the virus.   

This is what i found when I went for the vanity project.

I am still getting up at 4:00 am. I think it is because I am doing the morning walk and which takes extra time. Once again I was at the Sunday school building where Jim Wilson and I continued removing carpet tack strip and linoleum. By noon we were done with this project. Now we turn it over to the building committee to get bids for the new flooring or refinish the old pine flooring. I also worked on the camper today I have all the flooring done, still have to reinstall a molding and do some cleaning in the cargo area. Cheri worked on the Friday laundry and spending time in her sewing room. After getting cleaned up this afternoon Cheri and I headed to the recliners for reading, watching TV, and napping for me. Cheri fixed us the leftovers from our dinner at Harry’s. It was a normal evening of TV trying to find something interesting to watch. Thank you God for a blessed day.
