Continuing On.....


Since my last posting I had a doctor appointment.  Went to see my GYN for my three month checkup.  Right now, no news is good news.


Last weekend Kevin, Renea and Stephanie went to Cincinnati.  Kevin stayed with Brian; Renea and Stephanie spent Friday night with Renea’s parents.  Then Saturday night Stephanie stayed with Samantha.  However, on Saturday afternoon Renea and Stephanie visited Granny.  It was a surprise and Granny was really surprised.  She was so glad to see them.  They took her flowers and candy and Granny gave them a tour of the nursing home.
 

I had mentioned in a previous blog that Kevin, Renea and I rented a booth at the Lee County Flea Market.  We did not do well.  We did not have the right kind of items to sell.  The reason Kevin went to Ohio was so he and Brian could rent a booth at Traders World.  They set up on Saturday and did pretty good.  We are learning a lot from these sales.  We don’t expect to get rich.  We just plan on having a good time.
 

While they were gone, I dog sat.  I had a good time with Roscoe and Lola.  On Friday I went over at suppertime (they had spent the day outside).  I fed them their supper and gave them a treat.  They both wanted to go back outside for a short time.  After “doing their business” I brought them back in and the cuddle on the couch with me while I watched some television.  Roscoe kept trying to push Lola away from me so I sat between them.  When we went to bed they both slept with me.  This was an experience.  Lola slept at the bottom of the bed by me feet.  I don’t think she moved all night.  Roscoe was a different story.  He needed help to get up on the bed.  It was easier to help him than listen to him cry.  He would get in bed, turn circles, settle down, then snore.  After a while he would repeat this process.  And, of course, he had to go out during the night and the routine would start all over.  Saturday morning I fed them, put them outside and then took a nap since I didn’t get much sleep Friday night.  Saturday was better.  Lola slept at the bottom of the bed again, but Roscoe slept on the couch.  I think he was tired also.  Sunday morning I fed them and then went to church.  After I got home I put them outside.  Kevin and family were home by suppertime.
 

The rest of the week was just doing normal things. I did get my Christmas cards signed and addressed.  It sure was weird signing just my name.  I even put up my Christmas tree and a few decorations even though I won’t be here for Christmas.
 

On Friday night I went to the Prime Timers Christmas Party at church.  We had a great time.  Plenty of good food, played a couple of games and lots of laughter.
 

Saturday I didn’t do much.  Sunday I went to church and then started getting ready to head for Ohio.  I will be staying with Jana and David for a while.  She is having hip replacement surgery and I will be her caregiver.  I will also be taking care of David and Smoky.  In between I will visit with family and friends.

It sounds like you are going to have a busy winter. I don't know if we will get together this time or not, as we are leaving for Florida on the 15th of January. I hope Jana's surgery goes well, and I will keep her and Dave and all of you in my prayers. Travel safe and take care, dear friend.
Love, Arlene and Bob
