It was rather beautiful today. The sun shone and more snow melted. I am finding green shoots coming up in the gardens. I may, if it is nice in the morning check down at the bottom of the yard to see if any of my herbs survived. It may be a bit early but I need to start checking.

Chelsea was a little crazy dog this morning. She loved her walk and when she came in saw Dick at the table and turned into a whirling dervish. Spinning like a top. It is so good to see her happy and lively.

We then went to McDonald's for breakfast, to the bank and to the grocery store to get the tickets and some wine. Then I took Dick, who was not feeling too well, home and went BACK to the Pig to finish the grocery shopping.

Michelle came over right after lunch to tell us how Jim is doing. Poor guy. Michelle said he is still bleeding some. The doctor instructed him as to how to avoid swallowing the blood so he is not as sick. We will go to see him tomorrow. He needs LOTS of rest. I have this urge to fix special food. Perhaps in a day or two when he can taste and swallow.

Dick did not feel up to going to the Sheboygan Theater Company production of Clue tonight, so I asked Kate. She was delighted. So it was a lady's night. We ate at the Villager. We all had Pasta Voile. A pasta dish where you pick the type of pasta, the sauce, the veggies and the spices. It is served with soup or salad and a bread stick and was really good. We all brought home enough for another meal too.

The play was Clue, the Musical. I had never heard any of the music before and each production has a different ending depending, just like the Clue board game, which cards are drawn and hidden at the beginning of the production as to who, which room and what weapon were used. Kate and I guessed correctly from the clues. Mother did not bother because she can't see well enough so she just enjoyed the music and the dialogue. It was a fun and lively production and well acted and sung.

I think Dick would have liked it.

So another busy and productive day. Keep praying for Jim and his caregiver, Michelle, who has to be nurse and everything right now. Keep Dick in your prayers too. He will be starting physical therapy next Wednesday. I am glad of that. If he has direction, I know he will do it.

All my love.

Dick had an appointment with Dr. Sharon at 2PM. He has been experiencing more weakness in his legs and some
