Grandma went to church with us this morning. She hadn’t been feeling well so it has been a long time since she has gone to church with us. We had a guest speaker in church today. He is a home grown missionary who was raised in Dade City. He has been helping the people in Iran. He is working out of Istanbul where they have people come from Iran and learn about the God and the Bible and then return to Iran to teach the people. It was very interesting and was surprised how many Christians there are in Iran. He also said how unhappy the Iranians are on how their country is being run. Really no different than how we feel about our country. Our Sunday school lesson today was Alert Living from 1 Peter 5:1-11 and was very interesting. This afternoon and early evening was my time for TV. I watched the Wisconsin Badger football game that I had recorded. After that it was time to watch the NASCAR race that I was recording. When that was over I started watching the Green Bay Packer football game that was recording. All of this lasted until about 8:30 pm. Cheri not that interested in sports spent the afternoon in her sewing room. After all the sporting events Cheri joined me to watch a couple of shows before calling it a night.

Cheri and I both put in a bad night. I was up before 5:00 am and Cheri was up before 6:00 am. So we decided to go out for an early breakfast at the Sunrise restaurant. By 8:00 am we were on our way to Lakeland as Cheri wanted to go to Jo-Ann fabrics and I needed to make a stop at Lowe’s. We took the long way to Lakeland because we were early and stopped at Lowe’s first as Jo-Ann’s doesn’t open until 9:00 am. I picked up some assembly materials I needed for the additional rollout drawers I am working on. It was 9:00 am when we pulled into Jo-Ann’s parking lot. While Cheri was in Jo-Ann’s I decided to go over to Best Buy and found out they don’t open until 10:00 am. So I went back and told Cheri I was going to wait in the car. She came out a little after 10:00 am. We had planned on going to Wawa to have a milk shake on the way home but it was too early so we just headed on home. When we got home Cheri went to her sewing room and I headed out to work on the cutting the Plywood for the rollouts. By 4:00 pm I had all the sides and ends cut out, still have to cut out the bottoms which will be for another day. This evening Mike and Kathy came over to play Phase Ten and we also played a game of Aggravation. It was a fun evening and the first time we have gotten together since they have come back from the north.

It was a good day for the Sharps. Cheri was busy doing her Friday house work and laundry. Then she headed to the sewing room to start a new quilt project, think it is an Easter quilt hanger. I worked on cutting plywood for eight more rollout drawers. Yes I am still working on rollout drawers. Six of them are for our cabinets and two for Ron and Sandy and that will be the last of doing rollout drawers. This afternoon we made a trip to Wal-Mart to pick up a few things that Cheri needed. This evening was our Life Group Gathering and once again we met Mike and Pam at Walgreens and then rode with them to meet Ron and Sandy at Tokyo Grill & Sushi. After supper we all went back to Ron and Sandy’s to prepare for Life Group. Once again we had a good group and nice to see and visit with christen friends. Thank you God for all the good friends you have given us.

No work for me today as it was motorcycle riding day. Mike and I left at 9:30 am with Mike leading the ride to Crystal River and out to the coast to have lunch at a place that is at the end of the road. The restaurant had been shut down from the hurricane that went through and had four feet of water in the building. Mike even found a new road that I hadn’t been on before. We made a stop at the Harley dealer in Crystal River to dream about the new bikes. As soon as I win the lottery I will be buying a new one (guess I have to buy a ticket). When we got ready to leave Mike said that it was my turn to lead and find a way home. We had an excellent ride of 174 miles and got home 4:45 pm. I was really tired and needed a nap after supper. Cheri worked on doing Friday laundry and working in her sewing room. She did venture out to the grocery store to get some things she needed to do a new chicken recipe for supper. It was very good and have enough for a couple more meals. Thank you God for a wonderful day.

Cheri fixed us a breakfast of scrambled eggs, bacon, English muffin with black berry jelly, and orange juice. Which means no lunch today. After Cheri got her Wednesday house work done she disappeared in to her sewing room. She finished the Christmas hanger. I wonder what her next project will be. I worked on installing the rollout drawers and now can say the panty rollouts are done. Later this afternoon I took the car through the car wash and got home just in time for the lawn mowers to come through and get it all dusty, at least it was nice and clean for a little while. I also dropped of the old motorcycle battery at Advance Auto Parts. When I got hone I joined Cheri in the recliner and tried to watch some TV before supper. I napped through the first show and Cheri napped through the second show. Cheri fixed us chipped beef gravy over scrambled eggs on toast for supper. It is something that we haven’t had in a long time. It was another good day that God made.
