Hello again

I'm baaack.    I was invited to a Robert Burns party at my friend's Bob and Barb Mac Ewen's home last night.    I got home close to 10PM and was just too tired to blog.

I had an appointment at Generations with a physical therapist for an evaluation.    All I learned is that I should get a doctor's order from Dr. Leben and go to therapy again.   She, Kelsey, thinks that with proper therapy my non sore muscles could take over for the sore muscles until they get a chance to heal.   Sounds probable.   I see Dr. Leben on February 4th.    So we will see.   Today seems OK.  But I have been really careful.

Then at 6PM I went to Bob and Barb's.   Barb had a spread of heavy hor de ouerves.    She avoided haggis by calling her wrapped wienies haggis.   Not a bad idea.   There was a great group of people, mainly from their church, Grace Church in Sheboygan.   I knew several and several of them know Bobbie and Bill.   The pastor, Father Karl C. Schaffenburg, and his wife and Bernie Markovich to name three.   Also, Francoise and Jeurgin Pietzner, friends from Blessed Trinity.  Francoise brings communion to Mother during the week.  One of their friends, named Gary, led us in song, Auld Lang Syne and sang a tune or two of Burns for us too.

Today was also rather busy.   I had an appointment with Carolyn and Rich from Tailwind Destinations about the Scotland trip.   A couple of my fellow travelers joined us so we have more ears than mine.   If you are interested, please let me know and I will include you on future emails. or call me.    It is going to be exciting.

I had the afternoon home and then went to Mass at 4PM.   It is beastly cold outside.   And is supposed to remain so for some days.

God be good to anyone who's sleeping out tonight.   Tuck them in and keep them warm and don't put out the light.

One of my poems was selected for the 2015 Poets Calendar from WFOP .   Yea.
