 SUNDAY the 3rd. WOW!   I got a LOT of sleep last night.  After Pam left, I felt really tired so I got ready for bed and settled into my recliner in front of LAW and ORDER SVU, but I slept most of the way through two episodes.  Then I moved to my bed and fell asleep within a few minutes.  I don't think I got up in the night to use the toilet, but I might have.  At any rate, It was close to eight a.m. when I woke up and close to nine before I got up.  I had to rush a bit in order to be ready for church in time.  CHURCH WAS GREAT!! When the service ended, I headed down to the small sanctuary.  My job (as requested by Peggy) was to keep the seniors OUT of the small sanctuary until the kids had left and the tables were set up.  This was not too hard since Dave Register stood by the door and helped. I went in a bit early to help with the last couple of tablecloths.   The event went well.  The meal was lasagna, tossed salad...

 SUNDAY, November 26th:  Before going to church, I started a large batch of split pea soup with ham in my crockpot. Church was very good this morning.  Marlene, Glenda and I went to APPLEBEE'S for lunch after it was over.  I had the baby ribs with fries and coleslaw, which was delicious. (it was also kind of expensive) It was kind of chilly in the restaurant.  When I got home, and before going into the house, I spent a few minutes straightening out my car.  It got kind of messed up when Peg and I were pulling out my collapsible chairs. While straightening up, I found my missing prescription sunglasses.  I rested in the afternoon.  I talked with Connie on the phone for a while.  My soup turned out very good!  I have tons to freeze for future meals.  I also talked with Leslie on the phone. MONDAY the 27th:  Peg and I had planned to meet here at my house to watch a youtube video.  However, stuff kept coming up for her, and sh...

 Sunday 11/19:  Church was so good this morning.  The theme of the sermon was WHEN SOMEONE DOES YOU DIRTY.  I love how Pastor Craig uses "props" to get points across.  He painted his shirt to emphasize his point.   Peggy and I talked about Thanksgiving after church, and agreed on two p.m. for our meal time.  Which really means something between 2:30 and 3:00 p.m.  In the early evening, I called Becky to tell her, but I did NOT promise that we will eat our meal at exactly two p.m.   I had leftover turkey and stuffing from the Thanksgiving meal at the Y, so I tried a new recipe for milk gravy to put on it.  I think that I should have added some poultry seasoning and maybe some small pieces of turkey, which I should do the next time I make it.   MONDAY November 20th.  First thing this morning, I went to the library to return a book and pick up a book.  I was on the elevator going to the second floor when a woma...

 SUNDAY October 12th:  Church was good this morning.  Betty was late, and Carolyn Pyskaty took her seat.  After church Betty and I along with Glenda and Marlene went to LaPorts for lunch.  We all had the beef barley soup which is soooo good, and I had a grilled ham and cheese sandwich.  I spent the rest of the day at home.  I wrote out a birthday card for Nikolai and a card for Betty for her 80th birthday.  I started my homework for Tuesday mornings Life Group.   MONDAY the 13th:  Before going to Life Group I went to NorthWest Bank to order checks and to cash a check.  HOORAY, I found the $25 check that was missing, a check from one of my credit card companies giving me a refund!  I also went to DOLLAR TREE and purchased a few items, mostly paper goods.  Then I met up with Jan at the Y for our class at 12:15.   I went to WalMart before going home in order to get a sub at their SUBWAY and some milk.  I r...
