What a Week

sorry

The change for our church Website went very smoothly.  I had done my homework, and there were no nasty surprises.  That was something to be thankful for.  Lots of tiny jobs have kept Sylvia and me hopping this week.

Yesterday, Thursday, was the high spot of the week.  Two of my sisters were here along with a brother-in-law.  (The other sister and her husband is in Florida.)  After lunch, we were getting to the end of a game of Scattergories when Bryant and Barbara (son and DiL) showed up.  Wow!  That was great.  We sat the game aside and spent the rest of the afternoon in pleasant conversation.  Okay, we did take time to eat some pie–chocolate or cherry-rhubarb.

After a light supper, Sylvia and I were watching Despicable Me 2.  The phone rang.  It was Briana (granddaughter).  That put the whipped topping on the chocolate pie.  She had just finished her twelve-hour shift and was walking home.  It had been the quietest day that anyone at the hospital could remember.  One person had been there over twenty years.  Briana had started her shift with only three patients and ended it with just one.

Today, the community celebrates Christmas Around Town.  Our church participates and Sylvia has been there since she finished her early breakfast.

  1. Wow! Isn’t that a wonderful holiday for all?! I love that Briana called you too. That is so sweet that she thinks of you so often. How nice that she had a good day at work and that there weren’t many people in the hospital for the holiday. It’s a win for everyone!!
