Hello to everyone!
I had an awesome week. I hope that you did too.
Monday I did some cleaning and sewing. I had a bride and groom come up to inquire about me making five bridesmaids dresses for their Sept. 20 beach wedding. I got the job! I am so excited.
Tuesday Jennifer Pence (teacher that I worked with) came up for a Mexican meal. She brought me a large basket full of clothes that she can’t wear. How exciting to get some new clothes.
Wednesday was sunny and warm – afternoon thunderstorms. Some near by places had hail and the next county north of us had a tornado touch down and did quite a bit of damage. I made thank you cards for Jennifer (for her shower on Saturday).
Thursday was still rainy and warm. Three of the bridesmaids came up to get measured. They are really sweet girls, I know that I will enjoy working with them. After Rodney got home we went to eat dinner with his mother and then we went to get groceries.
Friday it is still raining. It rained most of the day. I cleaned and baked a cake and made pimento cheese getting ready for the kids to come home.They got here at 9:45 pm—just in time for them to go to bed.
Saturday we got up early and put our things out for a yard sale (Bridgewater’s annual yard sale). The day was beautiful and the neighborhood was crazy with all the people coming for the yard sale. We sold all the big items that we wanted to get rid of. We went to Jennifer’s sisters house for a baby shower for Jennifer. It was set up outside and it was really nice. Jennifer got a lot of really cute things for the baby. After the shower we got dinner ready and had Aunt Louise up for dinner. We didn’t get her back to the home until 9:45(that was really past her bedtime, but I think she enjoyed every minute of it). She got to go down to Ryan and Jennifer’s to see the nursery.
Today we went to early church and then back home for the kids to pack and for me to get lunch ready. We had Rodney’s mother for lunch and then we left for Dad and Corinne’s for another baby shower(for Ryan and Jennifer and for Curt and Christy). Olivia was so cute and she slept the whole time. Scott, Beth and kids left for NC and got back safely. We went straight to the hospital to see my good friend Jane (she fell and broke her shoulder and wrist). We got to the hospital to be told that she was just discharged! We went to her house and had a good visit. She is still in a lot of pain. I would appreciate it if all of you would say a prayer for her. She has been through a lot of medical things these last nine months.
I am really tired and plan to go to bed ASAP and hope to sleep in for a little while tomorrow. I pray that I did not over do this weekend. I really feel good and it is hard not to do all the things that I use to do. I have to remember that I still need to be careful so I don’t get a set back.
Well that is my week.Hope that you all have a wonderful week and I will write next Sunday. Make someone’s day by doing something special for someone who is having a rough day.It doesn’t have to be anything big, just a smile or phone call or send a card or lend a listening ear or shoulder to cry on. You will find that it is far better to give than to receive.
Love,
Gloria
