It is still cold here and that is the excuse I am using for being slow about getting around this morning. By 10:00 am I was ready to do something and then thought it’s hardly worth doing anything before lunch. Getting old really sucks. Cheri didn’t feel like doing much today either. I did get the tools unloaded out of the car and put away and got the bird feeder filled. This afternoon I made a trip to Lowe’s to get new water fillers for our drinking water, new air filter for the furnace, and some screws to replenish the one’s I used at Darren’s. Yes I did get the new filters installed. That pretty much took care of my day. Cheri did do some ironing along with some cleaning. The rest of the day was spent napping and watching TV. I think we took turns napping so we could tell each other what was happing in the shows were watching.

It is another 43 degree cold morning and a high of 59 for the day. Grandma told us that she wasn’t going to church as it as it was too cold for her. We have another week of this winter weather and then it should be better. Pastor Randy had a very good message this morning about group praying. For Sunday school we have a new study book: Disciples Path- The Journey. The lesson today was about making God the center of our lives. Charlie did an excellent job of presenting the lesson and bring out things that we hadn’t thought about. It was near 1:00 pm when we got home. It was time to relax as Cheri and I are still trying to get caught up on our resting. We watched a little TV this afternoon before heading back to church at 5:00 pm to hear the Rob Mills Family and now have changed their name to The Sound. They have a wonderful music ministry.

I didn’t get up until 7:00 am, can’t remember the last time I slept in so late. Cheri was also slower getting up. We both are still trying to get caught up on our rest. It was 43 degrees this morning and a stiff breeze. We had planned on going to the kumquat festival in Dade City today but decided it was too cold for us. I was also going to unload all the tools from the car that we took to Darren’s but didn’t feel like doing that either. Cheri did some more laundry and made another valentine wreath for the front door. I did some computer work. This afternoon we spent time in Bible study and getting ready for our Sunday school lesson. We tried to watch some TV shows that we had recorded and both of us had trouble staying awake. That is pretty much the way our day went.

Cheri and I both got up tired this morning. In fact I snored so much that Cheri had to get up and go to the other bedroom to sleep. I took Cheri for her 9:00 am haircut and then after dropping her off at home I went and got my haircut. I was only back home a short time before Roger and Pat arrived (Cheri and Pat were fiends before I knew Cheri). We had a great visit and then went out to Sunrise Restaurant for lunch. After lunch we took them over Ollie’s to do some shopping. Then back home for some more visiting. After they left we went over to Grandma’s to see how she was doing and to get her grocery list. Then to Wal-Mart for her groceries. By the time we got everything done it was 6:00 pm when we got home. Because we had a big lunch we settled for an English muffin with peanut butter and a couple of cookies for supper. We watch a little TV and was in bed a little past 9:00 pm.

I put in a bad night along with Cheri. I woke up at 2:30 am and couldn’t go back to sleep and Cheri woke up around 3:00 am. We finally got up at 3:45 am. Cheri was ready to spend some more time with Wyatt before Brooke left with him at 6:30 am heading for day care and then to work. Daren left for work around 7:00 am. It took me a couple of hours to get all my tools loaded into the car and get the garage cleaned up. While I was doing that Cheri was busy doing some cleaning and packing our clothes. Checked the traffic before we got on the road and there was an accident on highway 400 with two of four lanes closed. We left at 9:10 am and did get into some very slow moving traffic from the accident. After that traffic move well. When we got on I-85 we got in the HOV lane and stayed in that all the way out of Atlanta which really helped. We stopped in Macon at Applebee’s for lunch and then about 50 miles north of Florida for gas and one more stop at the first Florida rest area to do some walking as I was very tired and needed to get woke up. We got home at 5:10 pm. Cheri fixed us some soup for supper and unpacked all the clothes and put away the suitcases. We were both exhausted and were in bed by 9:00 pm.
