The five quilts were completely finished in record time. I started rolling them and typing with ribbon and attaching the name tag. I quickly realized that putting several rolled quilts into a large bag would more than likely damage the name tags and possibly tear them off. So I stopped with three rolled and just [...]
Because I was still awake at six this morning I did not get up until almost noon. Did my Bible study and then took off for Monroe to go to Target to get an electric blanket. Bought the blanket on sale for thirty dollars, which certainly beats the ninety-nine dollar price at Walmart. Went to [...]
Did not get up until noon for it was after six in the morning before I finally got to sleep. Seems that sleeping from six in the morning until noon is becoming normal for me. Getting up that late makes for a short day. Had to make a grocery run to Walmart that took up [...]
In the mail today I received my check for working as a voting commissioner two weeks ago. Took a little over a month to get the one for working in October. I really do not like paying to have a check cashed but paying Walmart three dollars was less expensive than the gas would have [...]

Very few people were at church tonight but was not really surprised since many were already out of town visiting family and I am sure that many stayed home just to work on the meal for tomorrow. The pastor brought a great sermon on worshiping God by thanking Him for our blessings. Since Scott will [...]
