Saturday

We slept a bit later than other days. I thought Evelyn would want to go to one of the festivals in the area, but she didn’t. She talked about picking up some twigs in the yard but didn’t do that either. Instead she did some laundry and ironing while I tried to rearrange the office. I was able to make places for some of the items for the office and took some things to the trailer that we want to take back with us next fall. I also took some items to the recycle center because we wanted to mail some cards to Emily. While Evelyn made lunch, she talked with Stacy on the phone. She heard about the nightmare experience in trying to get Olivia a passport for her mission trip to Guatemala. I could have heard it too but can’t get her to put the conversations onto the speaker phone. We also received a surprise call from Armand and Rose, our neighbors while in Texas. They live in Manitoba and are experiencing a blizzard and low temperatures. It was really good to hear from them. The day was beautiful here. I also thought we might have dinner guests tonight but none of the neighbors could come. We stayed home and watched “The Notebook”, a movie based on a book Evelyn once read. We will be blessed by returning to worship with our NC friends tomorrow moning.
