49 years together

We slept later again, but I think I accidentally fixed the alarm clock. We won’t know until tomorrow. We got up intending to walk but couldn’t because of the rain. I learned from the neighbor that we have had 2 inches since Saturday. Evelyn began doing the laundry and cleaning some of the cupboards, looking for ants. She found some but the poison I broadcast yesterday has not had time to work. I worked on finances--transferring money and paying credit card bills. I also did some ironing of napkins ( thought it would be hard to mess this up) and helped fold much of the laundry. Evelyn made a shrimp dish for lunch. I am not a big fan of shrimp but liked this. She is quite a cook. The rain finally stopped, but walking may not happen until later this afternoon because the Cubs were on TV again. They won and we decided to walk the lake because it had stopped raining--that is until we approached the lake. It began raining so we went on to get 2 garbage cans full of mulch. On the way back the rain had stopped so we decided to walk. After about ¼ of the way, the rain began. We had taken 2 umbrellas so we weren’t unprepared. It rained a nice gentle rain all the way around. When we arrived, we ate the black bean soup Evelyn had made for supper. It was good. We then watched “The Fantastics”. It was one of the DVDs Evelyn had checked out of the library. I had heard of it but was very disappointed. It was the most convoluted story in a musical I have ever seen. There was only one familiar song in it (“Try to Remember”) and it had nothing to do with the “plot”. We finished watching some of the NBA PLAYOFFS. I HAVE SET THE CAPS LOCK ON THIS COMPUTER AND DON’T KNOW HOW TO UNSET THEM. If anyone can help, please do. Tomorrow concludes our 49th year of marriage. I wish she had found someone more worthy of her than me. The Lord must have wanted her to have a mission field close at hand. The Lord has His own plan though, and He did produce 2 lovely girls who know His love and strive to serve Him.
