I started off this morning at 8AM at church for the first annual? Run/Walk.    I had signed up to "walk: with the help of a wheel chair.    As it turned out, I got a ride in a golf cart for the event which was very nice.    They had donuts and coffee at the halfway point and food and wine and beer and coffee at the end.    A bit early for spirits for me at 10 AM but I really enjoyed the breakfast sandwitch and all that went with it.     Just the camaraderie was great.

The rest of the day was quiet.   Bart called this afternoon and we had our daily checkup.    All  is well.

Yesterday, I had a doctor's appointment.    We are continuing with the drugs that Dr. Aiku prescribed to see if extended use will help alleviate the pain.     They do help me sleep so I am not objecting..

Today I was home all day, thank heavens, because we had some really heavy thunderstorms a good chunk of the day.

So all is well here.    Nicky is fine and did get a VERY short walk this afternoon.

Boy did we have thunderstorms last night.    Almost ALL night.   But by morning it had passed and Nicky was even able to go out for his morning potty without any concerns.      He does not like bad weather and I cannot fault him for that.     It is amazing how long that doggy can hold his urine.

Went to Bible Study this morning.    We had some very interesting conversations about the book we are reading and also shared a lot of prayer requests.

The rest of the day was quiet.   I am trying to sort out one area a day.   Today I accomplished that.    I need more ambition and will work on that.

I just got home from Writer's Club.   It was POURING for a good chunk of the way and the streets were pretty flooded.    Thank God, it died down some about half way home and I made it safe and sound.

We had some good readings tonight.    Altogether worth the rainy drive.

Dan came to mow my lawn today.    That was the most exciting thing that happened.

I did talk to Bill Smith and know that things are going pretty well down in Bossier City.

The rest of the day was pretty lazy.    Bart stopped by about 11AM and we had a visit.

I ushered at the 8:30AM Mass this morning.   After the latest bombing, Fr. Phil asked us to be a bit more vigilant as people come in after Mass starts.   Sad that we have come to that.

The rest of the day was very quiet.
