This week we
went through the totes we brought home from the storage unit, decided what to
keep and what was going to goodwill. On
Wednesday we took all of the empty totes to daughter Desira, she has so many
projects going on she is always needing totes so it worked out well for all of
us. Next year we’ll tackle a few more.
One of the
things I found in the totes was a project I started 18 years ago – two Christmas
candle holders. I know it was 18 years ago
because the receipts were still in the box.
The paint I bought for them is still good! I need to get these ceramic pieces cleaned so
they can be fired. It may be this time
next year when I’m able to pick them up and paint them, but after 18 years what’s
a few months more. I worked on one of
them this afternoon and after I took the picture I noticed a few more areas I
still need to clean up.
Last night
we met Greg’s sisters, Susan and Linda and their husbands David and Rex, for
supper at Sahm’s in Pendleton. We had a
great time catching up with them, their kids and grandkids. Our time here is flying by and we haven’t
worked in as much visitation time with family and friends as we would like, but
we have enjoyed tremendously what time we have been able to spend with them.
I was at the
doctor bright and early this morning for my checkup – all my numbers came out good. The only thing I have left is getting my osteoporosis
medication administered. Greg is
finished with everything but the dentist appointments. He has another one on Monday. All in all we are in pretty good shape, we
just need to lose some weight L, we are getting ready to work on that.
This
afternoon we said goodbye to a wonderful family friend, Rex Etchison. While we were at the showing Greg and
daughter Amanda met up with many old friends from when they lived in
Frankton. It’s always nice to see that
they are remembered fondly by so many people.
When Amanda
dropped us off at home we loaded up our two folding RV bicycles so she could
take them to her house. We’ll pick them
back up again next week but we have an appointment next Wednesday to have the
engine checked out on the coach and we can’t put them on the back of the coach
where we had them because the engine wouldn’t be accessible. We have the bicycles for sale, I’m not going
to try riding again – I just beat myself up too bad trying to relearn to ride
while we were in Florida. You really can
forget how to ride a bicycle. I can’t
believe my osteoporosis is too bad or I think I would have broken something when
I was falling all over that bike J.
