Brenda's surgery went well this morning. (Thank you for your prayers) The girls were there with her and are keeping her comfortable tonight. They are so sweet.
(I have a picture of her waiting to go into surgery with the girls, but I couldn't seem to be able to post it!! Eeeeks... computers!)
We headed out this morning to run some errands and get some groceries for Tom's sister. First thing we saw...was a turkey meandering across the street. Well, this little guy was stuck on the other side of the fence. He was trying to run away from us. ha..ha...
When I saw the price of gas, I said to Tom, I think we need to fill up!! smile.. I was talking to my son on the phone and told him we were getting gas as it was only $2.29, he said 'sure...I just filled up yesterday!' That is usually how it goes!!
Funny, we stopped at the bank to get some money for gifts. I asked them if they had the money holders to go with the money. She graciously said, 'yes, she'd get some for me.' smile... [Why buy those envelopes when you can get them 'free'?] As we were waiting for her to return, I noticed a letter posted on their window. I assumed it was a message that would say, " We close Christmas Eve at a certain time." But NO it said, we're having our Christmas Open House December 12th from 9 till 4. I looked at my phone and 'yes' it was December 12th and the time frame was right!!! So I asked her about it and she said come on in and have some treats. Of course we went in. Look at all these goodies! The lime punch was really yummy!!! And of course all those cookies and treats were hard to choose from. They also had a drawing for a box of candy. Plus there were calendar give aways!
Then we had a couple other stops before heading to the grocery store!! It was warm (temperature wise) but really over cast. The store was busy, but we did get to visit with a couple people we knew. Seems you always see someone you know. (I love it!) Have you ever shopped for two people at one time??? I kind of knew what I wanted, and went off of her list. There were things that I didn't know what they were. ha...ha.. So just guessed... I figured we could always take them back. Then there is the 'check out'....this is ours...that is hers....finally, I thought forget about it.. I believe we got them divided properly.
It felt so good when we got home, put everything away and settled in. I sat here and watched another Christmas Hallmark movie!!!! I will do dishes and clean up the kitchen tomorrow!!
