Catching up

The last two or three days have been good for catching up. I paid the bills, replenished the cupboards and fridge :) cleaned the house and finally mowed the lawn once the weather cooperated. It is a good feeling to catch up a little.

Thursday Chris and I went to Wal-Mart and bought some more flowers for the front yard. We now have red and white geraniums in front of the window. I like to try different things from year to year. We also bought some yellow marigolds (I don’t like the orange ones mixing with my other colors just so you know) and some dianthus variety that are brilliant deep pink. These will go under the tree and the marigolds where the tree was taken out by the street. Hopefully tomorrow we will have time to plant these before I kill them!

Chris went to the doc yesterday and they determined the next course of action is to have Dr. Blackstone do the surgery for epichondylitis since it will take too long to appeal the other diagnosis. If this surgery doesn’t work they can try the other surgery. This should help both arms since he won’t be typing during the recovery. The process is still slow so it will probably be six weeks till the surgery is done.

Teresa finally had her birthday party last night. It was delayed due to friends being grounded. It went well and they actually got a little sleep. Teresa was sick for three days earlier and we wondered if the party would be delayed again but she recovered just in time!

Chris and I got two days of garage saling in to make up for last week. We found a few treasures but mostly had fun.

Tomorrow we have Teresa doing E-Team at our church for two services so she starts at 8. We have a Mexico team meeting at 8:30 a.m. and church at 10. After church we have the first meeting of our home group after they have multiplied into two groups. It is a potluck at our house at 1:00. We are looking forward to it.

Love to you Jan
