It’s kind of hard for me to adjust to this different world that we are living in these days, but I am trying my best. I pray for those that have the virus.
Doctor David Martin called from Woolwine, and I was glad for him to make a photo. It looked great, but in color it is nice. I have a lot of photos, thanks to my neighbor Teresa. Lots of good memories of the Amish family we visited.
I always enjoy church service when it’s outside, and I got to see Sam the dog. Sunday was kind of warm in the car, but that’s okay also.
Thanks to my sister- in-law for calling me. I always enjoy her and all of her family. Love to Hilda and family. Glad Dennis and Mary Simmons came by. It’s always a joy to see them. The strawberry bread was delicious and I enjoyed every bite.
I was able to go by and see my friend Dorothy Vipperman. It was good to see her and she gave me some of those homegrown eggs. Yes, I am still eating well.
So good to hear from Pauline Walker again. She’s 92 years old and seems she stays busy. Thanks for the photo.
It was time to get some medicines refilled. So off to our local Spring Drug in Patrick Springs. Everyone was so helpful and nice. I really appreciate them and a drug store that has just about anything that I need.
A knock came on the door on Tuesday. It was a UPS gentleman. The box was so heavy, and the nice man put it in the house. He was curious so I said “Let’s open it.” It was 48 bottles of drinking water- a nice gift. I’m well supplied Thanks to Beverly Wood. Who’s always ready to do things. God bless.
Food for Thought- The smallest task accomplished with the Lord has more impact than any material achievement. Whatever your hands find to do- do with your might. Thank you for tasks large and small, large and small that gives us meaning to our days, Lord.
