Many more days
Sunday brought uplifting worship. The choir sang a lovely praise hymn. I was able to talk with the circuit counselor about being pulpit supply, and he agreed to talk with the district president about me. We had expected to meet with Mary Lou Salmons but she didn’t come. We went to see how she was and invite her for lunch. She wanted to clean their trailer and agreed to meet us here for lunch tomorrow. We came home and had leftovers and rested in the afternoon. We went to walk around 5 and came home for popcorn around 6:30. We watched a TV movie, 50 First Dates. It was pretty good and we enjoyed it. I watched two other programs and the news before retiring. I continued to feel better as the day went on. I was a bit dizzy at church but became stronger throughout the afternoon.
Monday we slept late and then prepared lunch for Mary Lou while Ron was in NM. We had thought we could all go to some natural attraction in the area, but she had seen all of them. She left and we then rested until 3 and went to walk. We went to where we have the motor home stored and learned that they not only can’t rent it out but want us to move it. We checked with two other storage places and then thought of an offer Tom Jones had made last year. I called him and he said we could park at their home in Franklin. We will have to move it sometime this next weekend. Then we came home for dinner. We watched TV and worked on a Bible study for next week.
I was up and off to work. It was a slow day but tiring. I left at the usual time: 2:30. We came home and rested until time to prepare for dinner with Bill and Pat Smith. To our surprise they brought their grandson, Phil with them. They came and Bill played his guitar and sang for two hours. Some of the neighbors came, even though I had invited all the neighborhood. There was a light shower for a few minutes but everyone stayed. Bill is a good Christian who has sung gospel music for years. They live in “The Villages” in FL and want us to visit them. We will see.
Wednesday was work again followed by volunteering to park cars at the tour of homes at Lake Junaluska. What a bore! I didn’t have much to do since nearly everyone traveled by trolley or van. I was not told to bring a chair or book or fishing pole. At least it didn’t rain on me much. We came home and I heated meat for our supper. I over cooked it so I am forbidden to operate the microwave again. J We talked with one of the neighbors about going to Savannah in our rigs. She and another neighbor really want to do it, but I am not sure about her husband.
Thursday I woke earlier than I wanted and went off to work. We had a meeting of all the employees about new procedures and getting more work done. This hard to reach Taco Bell is in the top 5 producers in the 42 store region. They must be doing something right. I was commended about my keeping the store clean. Hooray! Evelyn went to a lunch with some church ladies and was late in picking me up, but that was fine as it allowed me to make up some of the time I lost yesterday while volunteering. We came home and rested. We had leftover steak and Evelyn went to a house party of some kind. They want to sell her something like a Tupperware party used to do. We have to take the motor home to Franklin tomorrow morning. The good news for today is that we received our federal tax refund check and a rebate check from Citibank. I have been worried since the Ameritrade check was forwarded to the wrong address. I have one more coming from Jackson National Life. We also received our letter confirming our assignment to usher at Haywood Community College for the Folkmoot performances. We will enjoy that.
