Relaxing day

I don't want to do another puzzle that is so big as I get a pain in my neck to do it, I guess it's from sitting too long.   I used that back massager that Alan gave me. Breakfast was cold cereal, banana and coffee. I did my Bible reading and computer things and looking at the pictures which I removed from the big frames as I don't have wall space for them. We played hand and foot this evening. This is the puzzle Alden helped a little at the end.

Puzzle is done

I was up at 7:30 this  morning and about 9:15 I went to the kitchen to fix my breakfast of oatmeal with raisins and banana and coffee. I started to work on the puzzle again Alden helped and we fished it except one red piece which we looked for and I found it in my room under my carpet. I tried to rest in my recliner but I kept thinking about that one red piece so I didn't rest until I found it. Then we played hand and foot.

Saying Goodby to Alan

Going to the kitchen earlier this morning just to be with Alan as he prepared to leave for L.A. I really was blessed to have time with him, he took me to Church almost every Sunday. He also spent some time with Albert as I also pray for Albert. I pray that I will be a better example. Alden took Alan to L.A. today as this is Karl's birthday and they will go gulfing and Alden will stay there overnight. This afternoon Gina, Paige, Hailey and I played hand and foot. It was very hard for me to say Goodby to Alan as I know that things are not so great at this time, But God will be in control.
