Great weather

This morning at 7:30 I applied the medication to my knee as I need to let it take effect before I put any clothes on, and I don't see that it is helping any. Breakfast was cold cereal and coffee. Alden moped the kitchen and dining room. Andrew and McKenna came then Andrew went to see his family and Paige and McKenna went shopping. Alden was trying to get some of the things in the back yard together and I took a walk in the back to see if I could help. Alden made rice and chicken and ice cream for dinner. Josh was at work today.

For lunch McKenna made a green salad for us. Alden got here about 1:30 from school. Then he got a call for me to write a check for 7-Oaks for the escrow. So he went to 7-Oaks to deliver the check.I did my Bible reading and had a peanutbutter sandwich.

Up this morning with oat meal and banana & coffee for breakfast. Gina and I played hand and foot, it was a close game but I won. We had spaghetti for evening meal. Next was off to Shadow Mountain Church to watch Andrew play basketball and his team won, a very close game. What a busy church and just a couple miles from here.

Time away

 Well it was not so hot today. We all went to celebrate McKenna's graduation at the home where McKenna and Andrew are house sitting, they seem to get these jobs quite often, they take care of dogs also. Alden and I only stayed about three hours, there were lots of steps but I made it with Alden and Matt's help. I hope I don't get a cramp tonight. So look forward of pictures from Gina.

It's hot today over 100 degrees

Inside it was 80 but Gina reset it and now it is actually cold.so Alden is checking it.  Last night we went to McKenna's graduation it was great. Today I checked in for my new doctor appointment which will be next Friday. They have record of all my medical things. Last night I had cramps with my right leg I guess it was because I did quite a bit of walking, so I just ate a banana may that will help.

No sun today

This morning I was up at 7:00 am and went back to bed until 9:00 am, I guess that is my schedule now as I don't go to bed at night until about 11:00 pm. Breakfast was oat meal with raisins. Alden was working on one of the cars this morning, I made our lunch and Alden went up to 7-oaks and got the paint to touch-up but he thinks he might have to do more than touch-up. He talked to Tom Belgard our neighbor as he was on the board last year and he didn't think there was any problem with those issues. If more is needed Elite is the place to check. Well it looks like Alden will have to make another trip up there. He will be back to School next week. It seems like he is busy every minute and I am trying to help as much as I can.
