Around 8:00 p.m. last night the sky got really dark and the wind blew hard. I decided I'd shut down my computer in case we lost power again like Tuesday night: it was off from 8:45 p.m. until 12:10 a.m.Wednesday. We are fortunate that we have a lot of battery powered lights, as well as fans.
The rains did come - torrential rains with "rivers" running down the street. We lost a couple branches off our trees. There was wide spread damage, though, in the area due to the wind sheers.
Yesterday - Wednesday - Jennifer came to be with Jessie and they did quite a bit of table activities. Jon and I went out to breakfast, the post office, home, Wiegand's and Deneweth's. Since it was in the 90's outside, there wasn't many people at Wiegand's .... AND, we were the only customers at Deneweth's !!! Great for shopping, except it was really way too hot in the greenhouses. Those poor employees.
Today - Thursday - Rachel came and spent the day with Jessie. She brought Jessie a Hello Kitty bag filled with items for her. Jessie especially liked the Dory tumbler with straw. I took Doreen out to breakfast for her birthday then went to the post office. I did laundry, called several places for various things and did paper work on the computer. Around 3:00 I decided Jessie needed to get out of the house. I took the girls to Menchie's for ice cream. That was my lunch. Breakfast was a bowl of oatmeal.
Speaking of food ... I haven't reported my weight loss in a bit. I have now lost 30.6 pounds since May 1. I am pleased and working on the next 30.
A prayer request ... Please pray for Jon, as he is suffering tonight with great pain in all his joints. He called to see if he could get in to the specialist, but they have no openings. His next appointment there isn't until the end of August. He's going to go to our family doctor tomorrow. He's in bad shape. Thank you for your prayers for Jessie and now Jon. It is appreciated.
praying for you Jon
