A cold in my head

Just when I sent an e-mail to a friend in IN that we were both well, I developed a cold. At least it might be. It could be a sinus infection since I really don’t cough or sneeze much but am stuffed up enough that I was up and down all night. I finally stayed up from 4 to 5 but slept in until almost 9. I got up and loaded some recycle material into the car and looked for the Mabel’s Free Clinic people to donate some money. I couldn’t find anyone but did see a man who put me in touch with the place to “adopt” a student in the local Mexican school. We may do that at $120 per year. A woman from Immanuel has become interested in the free clinic and brought us a check to donate. In addition she brought many school supplies for us to take to another border town when we ride across the river (on a ferry) next week. Evelyn had gone to Bible study and came home to fix leftover no-nothing soup. I then went to bed and slept some more. I got up and watched some of the world baseball classic from the backyard. I sat in the sun which seemed to help loosen my sinus a bit. Mean while Evelyn was calling the JC Penny catalogue to order some things. She has been looking for a bedspread. We have been disappointed to find that few places sell them. Everything is a comforter. Unfortunately, Penny doesn’t either. I get too hot to sleep with a comforter, and they don’t have a skirt that reaches the floor, which Evelyn wants. I finally took a shower because we are taking a couple for dinner to a Mexican restaurant. I like to take the loyal attendees at our worship, especially those who are kind enough to accompany us. This woman leads us on the piano. I will have only the couple who sets up the chairs left to go. We had hoped to take them both at once but one has visitors this week. The problem is that we have to eat with them and could have had just one meal if they could have both gone. We wouldn’t save money but would save calories. We went to La Casa del Taco where we enjoyed a botana and quesadilla. The botana was so big that we brought home enough for two more meals for two. We took them home after I stopped for some chlorosceptic for my throat. They invited us in, but I didn’t want to subject them to any more germs.
