Anointing the ill; finding the purse

We began the week in the usual way: exercise and park meeting. Evelyn is trying to get some interest in the coming dance. She wants to have a contest for the best belt buckle, hat or anything else to wear. I don’t think it will draw more people but who knows? We came home and ate some steel cut oatmeal before leaving for the day. We went to the hospital to see the results of Evelyn’s needle biopsy. It has been 2 weeks and we still don’t know the results. We finally got them. This is not the first time we have had this trouble. We think we might have figured out where things get lost. We went on to McAllen and bought some paper at Staples before going to Carino’s for lunch. Guess what! We had a coupon for a free appetizer with 1 entree. We bought 2 salads and shared the entree, bringing some of it home. We went on to 2 sports stores looking for exercise mats. They were all more expensive than the park manager will probably approve. We drove back toward home and stopped at Tropic Star to get the purse left there. We got it and continued to the big HEB in San Juan to get some more exotic supplies than we can get in Weslaco. We also bought a case of Rotel from the factory in Donna. We put them into the house, and then I took my anointing oil to a motor home that has been in our park for 2 weeks. The day it moved in, the owner, Jack Revels, had undergone by pass surgery. A couple we had met Sunday asked me to make a call on him. He has had to sit in a lazy boy chair all day. The irony is that his wife had fallen and broken her nose in San Antonio, forcing him to take her to the hospital when they arrived here. In the process, his heart had begun to hurt. He went one way and his wife went another for treatment. He was eventually sent to McAllen where the surgery was done. I anointed him and his wife and returned home for supper of chili Evelyn had taken from a can. It was not as good as hers. We watched a Mark Lowry video in the evening before going to bed.
