Cool Day in Michigan

I got up and fixed Dad's breakfast and he is now in the bathroom shaving, I think...I went to see Dr. Nelson yesterday and he said that I am still on the upward path and we talked a little about a couple problems that I am having..I now have a load of clothes in the wash and facing this beautiful Fall Michigan day...love you all....Mary, Mom, Grandma, Grt Grandma, Aunt, and Friend...

STILL RAINING

I decided that I would go to the Presbyterian Church this morning even though it was really raining and Elizabeth came by in her rented car and took me....then she and Eileen picked me up after Church...it was so good to get back into worship and I told the minister to please call me as I left my telephone number on the pew pad...I have felt so lost but know that by contacting my Church is a good move for me...I also have an appointment with my Dr. Nelson who just talks with me about everything...oh yes, we had an indoor picnic here at the village which was held in the dining hall and it was pouring rain outside...I am now going to go and relax and read before I retire......love all of you...Mary, Mom. Aunt, Grandma, sister, Great Grandma, and Friend

Loved that Apple Pie...............

Finally I got out of bed, dressed and Steve and Eileen took me to the grocery store where I rambled around and found the items I needed..it was raining "cats and dogs"...had to ask a couple of people to help me find some items...we are having a whirlwind visit from Elizabeth and so good to see and be with her..they came over and brought fresh backed apple pie (courtesy of Steve) and ice cream..yum, yum...I also did a couple loads of wash and dried which were mostly Paul's things...rain is forecast and I am trying to decide what to do about church tomorrow morning...I even pressed my dress to wear yesterday..oh yes, we have a picnic here tomorrow and Paul and I are signed up for it...I suppose that it will be indoors.... we are grateful for the rain..do love all of you....Mary, Mom, Aunt, Grandma, and Friend

Rain today...............

I don't feel much like writing today but decided to anyway...we started off the day with sweet rolls from our Eileen...she took dad to get his glasses and a new cane..it has the prongs on the bottom...he and I tried it out in the hallway today and he is getting use to it..I have done a little reading...rode the exercise bike for 5 minutes (all my doctor prescribed) I did some puzzles on the computer to exercise the old noggin...as you can see I didn't push it today..oh yes, rain in Michigan today...hope all of your day is going well.....more tomorrow....Mary, Mom, Grandma, Friend

Some Extra ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

This morning I was so lazy and called Steve to go shopping in the afternoon and I crawled back into bed and took some extra zzzzz...then Steve and Eileen came over and took me to the grocery store and Dad for a walk in one of the lovely parks of Holland...oh yes, Eileen also got Dad a cane as the doctor wants him to use one...I am having a hard time getting my energy up and I feel so draggy but think this is probably just a phase I am passing thru...Dad and I enjoyed sitting out on our balcony until the sun forced us in...we had a lunch of turkey sandwiches and some chocolate milk....and with Eileen's help we now have our applications for absentee ballots filled out and ready to mail this Monday...we also had a call from our good friend, George Jordan and talked with him which was so great..God is so good and we are so grateful for his loving watchful care...
