It has been a super day around here. The two dogs got to hear Lance’s truck come up the road and then were allowed to run out to meet him! Oh! joy and freedom to sniff the front yard and jump up on his legs! Lance did not seem to mind the extra dog hair even! His dog and his daughter’s dogs have him pretty well trained.

 

Had spent some time and made gravy and biscuits (the biscuits were canned), sausage, and some fresh natural eggs scrambled that Maria had brought to me. Lance thought it was a pretty good breakfast. The dogs got the leftover gravy and some few bites of scrambled eggs, so they were happy too.

 

Lance took the battery off my truck, and we found out that it would not hold a charge. That’s the second battery like that from Walmart. Anyway, it has a new battery on it now and should not give me any more trouble that way. Here’s praying that nothing else happens to it for at least several months. By the week after this one, the old woman should be able to drive again. Patty needs to go to the dentist to have her teeth cleaned, so there’s that. Anyway, maybe things will go a tiny bit smoother for a while.

 

Colonial Park provided the new prescription for Thompson’s meds for his old body. He takes a couple of pills a day and has stopped whimpering, so the meds must be working. Know exactly how he feels.

 

Talked to Sterling briefly today. He has been asked to make a boat load of benches to sell for the lumber yard. He said that they are relatively simple, but let’s face it, they still have to be picked up piece by piece, cut, sanded, and varnished. That is a lot of work. But he and his friend George say that it keeps them busy and off the streets. Funny guys!

 

Let’s just say that today has been a good day. The temps are supposed to drop tonight and won’t be much better for a couple of days, but at least the winds are not blowing a gale, and we don’t have ice coating the electric lines. Let us pray for those affected by the deep snows, the high winds, the fires, and the droughts. May God bless us and this nation. Let us take care that we as individuals are as kind and loving toward others as possible. God has so blessed us. Let us live in gratitude.

 

Rest well, my friends. You are loved.
