stood up at church

Today was errand day. I went to the doctor to get orders for my lab work and then went to have blood drawn. Things went quite well and we went to do our daily walk, after which I did computer work. We wanted to get some things in Waynesville so off we went. We took a letter to the post office and delivered some magazines to the Open Door Soup Kitchen. We went to the Folkmoot center to confirm our ushering schedule and hoped to get our complimentary tickets to the evening performance at Stuart Auditorium. They said they would mail them. We went on to a grocery where we bought ground beef for the sloppy joes we will make for the VBS next week among other things. We came home for lunch and then decided to rest and wash the windows after my doctor’s appointment at 3. Evelyn had to do some cooking for the Krauses as we had lunch. They are an elderly couple who needs meals because she can’t cook because of her broken arm. We went to the doctor and learned that he is leaving his practice to go into emergency room work in Asheville. He had my bloodwork results and things are better than I thought they would be. He also made suggestions as to how to deal with my achy leg and my snoring. He spent nearly half an hour with us. We will certainly miss him. We took the meal to the Krauses and visited with her a short while. We came home, I started the charcoal and we washed the windows while the hamburgers were cooking. While we ate our burgers, I put some frozen chicken breasts on to just get a charcoal flavor to them. In the evening we tried to watch “My Boss’s Daughter” but it was too stupid to finish. I wrote a letter to the couple from Australia we met on our cruise and went to bed to get rested for my work week tomorrow.

Tuesday was really pretty slow. I have moreless drifted toward doing the dishes when the lunch hour starts. I don’t mind except that the girls throw the pans into the water without cleaning them. I have to intercept them and clean them so the dish water doesn’t get so dirty. I got tired again today but was flattered to learn that the boss said I could go home at noon if I felt too tired. I made it through, however, and Evelyn brought me home. She had run errands and made the sloppy joes for the VBS next week. I cleaned up and tried to watch Law and Order but fell asleep. We gathered our items and went off to the pot luck/Bible study but no one else showed up. We went to Wal-Mart and got my medicine to help prevent snoring. We came home and baked our pizza we had taken to the dinner. We then walked up to visit with Jim and Kathy’s to talk about the neighborhood romance that is going well. We came home and made plans for Thursday night’s ball game and went to bed. I talked wih one of the church members who said they had the study. We must have left minutes too soon. Cest le vive.
