Yesterday there was a Halloween Party at the Rehab Center! I got there just in time to have lunch with my hubby! It was so fun to see him again... ha...ha.. The day before was so rainy and cold that I stayed home and tended to busy. My first appointment was cancelled, but I was surprised that I had another one decided to come by and work on the my computer. I decided to get a hospital bed (or at least rent one for awhile) and those people came by at the same time. I did get the bed but realized I didn't have any bedding for a twin bed. I called a friend to see if she had some, which she didn't, but said she'd have something here by evening. And she did...bless her heart...she went to a secondhand shop, and found a pretty set for a dollar!! Then later her and her husband went to the Goodwill and found a nice blanket for the bed. She washed and dried all of this bedding, the blanket was still warm when she got here!! Unbelievable what a true friend she really is. I feel this reading totally fits her:
Matthew 25:31-40
31 “When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before him, and he will separate the people one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep on his right and the goats on his left.
34 “Then the King will say to those on his right, ‘Come, you who are blessed by my Father; take your inheritance, the kingdom prepared for you since the creation of the world. 35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me.’
37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’
40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’

There were lots and lots of people and children at the party. They had games for them to play, and a haunted house to go into. It was a blast for the children, they got lots of treats and food and drinks.
I'm so sorry this picture shows my dear friend frowning...so unusual for her.:( But look at her adorable granddaughter. She is a spitting imagine of her grandma when she was her age!
Granddaughter Wendy and the twins came and had fun too. They were dressed as Salt and Pepper. This was their costume from last year that their Mimi made for them. The hats looked like shaker lids. Just so cute!!
And then there was Lorelai and her Mommy Lacey. She was so pretty all dressed up as Elsa!!!
Love her shoes, aren't they adorable??
It was a great day for us. Today, I'm tired and sore, but am anxious for tomorrow when Tom will come home for a walk around, to be sure he can do what is necessary to be home for good!
(Prayers please..)
Blessings to your SONday!
