3 days

We were blessed with an uplifting message and Holy Communion at church. We came home for lunch and watched some of the Cubs/Cardinals game. For some unexplained reason, the Cubs scored many runs. I made popcorn to take to the band concert. We picked up Rich and Helen Ribbe and took them with us. The concert was not as good as some in the past. It was sultry inside the pavilion but tolerable. We went to their house for cake, ice cream and 4 games of Sequence before coming home.
Monday we got up at 8 and walked. We were home by 9 and ate breakfast. Evelyn peeled the last of our apples and I worked on the computer. We didn’t eat lunch until 1 which was bad because we are scheduled to share a hoagy at 5:30. The bad news is that Karen Norris had a “spell” this morning, and Dallas had to take her to the hospital for some tests. The doctor told her to stay out of the heat, so they did not go to the baseball game with us tonight. I doubt that we will make any more games with them this year. I went to my therapy session at 2:00 and came home to get ready for the ballgame. We took Dwain and Pat Perry with us, and we went to the hoagy place for dinner before going to the Asheville Tourists. They won in the 9th inning. Some Greenville fans (women) were driving us crazy by screaming like excited 8 year olds. When we won, our girls screamed back at them. I jokingly warned them that the Greenville babes were much bigger than we were. Nothing much developed. It was quite hot at the game so we were happy to get back into air conditioning.
Tuesday I decided to play golf. I thought it would be cooler and it was. Just not enough cooler. Evelyn took me to the course, and I played the back 9 first as usual. Evelyn came back for me at noon. I played only 11 holes. She had spent the morning making a dessert to take to the potluck/Bible study tonight. After watering the plants and eating lunch, I showered and went to see the audiologist to get my new hearing aids. I am not sure they are worth the money because I never thought I was very hard of hearing. I want to fix 2 problems: background noise when I watch TV and road noises when we are riding in the car. Those are the situations in which I have the most trouble. I tried watching TV but fell asleep. We went to the church, and I was asked to lead the prayer before the meal because the pastor called and said he would be late. We were home by 8. Unfortunately, we are not getting the rain that has been predicted. We need it.
