But why the cold? I know it's November, but I wish it could be warm like yesterday, 50's are great...I'm sure in a few months we will be so happy to have 30's or 40's. Okay enough complaining.
Yesterday was a crazy day. I didn't have a name written down as to who was to drive me to get unplugged, so I waited to see if anyone would call and ask me what time I needed to be picked up. No one called or emailed, so I sent out an email, and then realized I had a message on my phone from Mary Ward, and she was wondering if she was to drive, and I called back, but got her voice mail, so I left one for her saying yes, and told her what time....then I saw an email she had send saying the same thing, so I emailed her back a reply, and at noon she showed up at my door, and I told her I had left a message on her phone, and also replied to her email that it was 2:00 she needed to pick me up, and so she said she hadn't been home...out running errands, so she stopped to see if I still needed a ride. Well anyway, she did come back at 2:00 p.m. and took me to get unplugged. As we were pulling in the driveway, a car was backing out, and it was Patty Tkach, and she had left a box on my step, and didn't want to stay and chat. I got the styrophome (?another spelling question spell check doesn's have the answer) container into the house and opened it up to see a beautiful bouquet of sunflowers and a beautiful Thanksgiving card, from her and Dennis. How wonderful and thoughtful of them. Love Sunflowers, and it really brightened my day.
Anyway, I got home about 3:30, and wrote an email to my friend Val Knight to see if we were still on for dinner, and then laid down to take a quick nap, at about 4:40 I woke up and checked my email and there wasn't any reply, so I laid back down on the couch, and at 4:45 I heard a honk of a car horn in my driveway, and there she was picking me up for dinner. I had to quickly put my coat and shoes on, and off we went. I told her I had sent her an email, and she said she hadn't gotten it, and had answered all her emails on her home email, work email and a yahoo account, and none had an email from me, and I sent it to two of the three addresses she has. At 5:09 as we were sitting in the restaurant it finally showed up on her phone. So weird! Anyway we had a nice dinner, and as we were leaving the place, and in came Doraine Newland, (Doraine was who I job shared with back in the 80's at ARCC, and last saw in Florida on the big trip that Bonnie and I took in January of 2011). In talking too her we found out that her husband died just 3 weeks ago. So sad, I will have to plan a lunch with her in the near future.
Well, that was my day yesterday, and I am having lunch with Bonnie and Lois today, and then I really don't have any plans other than church on Sunday and dinner at Jimbo's on Thanksgiving. I'm sure something will come up, but I don't have anything on my calendar right now. Till tomorrow, Love and Prayers, m
