Catching up

Tuesday we got up and I had lots of laundry to do. I did that and then went to get a hair cut. Back home by 1. Then we started unloading the things we don't need anymore to take back to our storage trailer to be put up for sale at a later date. We then went over to Rick's parents for dinner and a visit. Our daughter Rachel and grandson JT came over also. I can't believe how much JT has grown taller. He's 12 and is almost as tall as me. We had ribs, baked potatoes, green beans and applesauce for dinner. Yum, Yum. We gave some things to Rachel to take home. One of which was a chair massager. Well, after she got home and got ready to use it, she realized I didn't give her the plug part to plug into the wall. Oh well, I can't be perfect all the time! Told her I would give it to her at church on Sunday. After we left Mom and Dad's, we stopped at our friends house, Jon and Rich to put some things in the trailer. They have been so kind to let us park our trailer by their barn. They were just putting dinner on the table so we visited with them and ate a bite or 2 of egg rolls and salad. After we left there, it was after 9:30. Getting caught back up again is fun. Today we were up early for doctors appointments at 8:15. We knew they would want blood test so we did not eat breakfast. The doctors really were being thorough this time. I got off easy. Some blood test and thats all. Rick on the other hand, had blood test and then had to go eat and go back 2 hours later for more test. (This for sugar). Then he went to see a dermotoligist and he did a biopsy on his forehead for basal cell cancer. We won't know anything for about 2 weeks. Then he goes in for some breathing test and something else that slips the mind right now. Anyway, they are checking him for valley fever. In between doctors appointments, we had to take the truck in for some work. They will have it for a few days. No problem, since we have our Lincoln Town car to drive around. What a difference between the truck and the car. The seats are so much softer and it is soo quiet you can't tell it's running. And getting 21 mpg is great compared to the truck. When we were at Walmart filling the tank on the car, a young man from church, Andrew pulled up to get gas also. We haven't seen him since last fall. And then a young lady from church pulled up in her truck to get gas. We said we could have church at Walmart. That was really neat. When we were in town eating breakfast we looked around to see if there was anyone we new. I told Rick they may all be working. We stopped at the fire station and got to see all the township trustees and the township clerk who is also a dispatcher on the fire department. It was so good to see old friends. And of course the camera was in the car. Sorry LaVon. And HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO LAVON. Sorry it's a day late. Tomorrow we go to talk to our financial advisor and our accountant. Wish us luck.

Thanks!!
Sounds like you're having fun at the old stomping grounds.
Will be praying that Rick gets a good report back.
That was interesting what Snookie found out from the lady truck driver.
Pray for our health. Oak spores are really bad here in Branson area.

I'm sure you guys are glad to be back to your home park. Hope all Rick's tests come back just fine. Have fun.
