TODAY IS WED

Having a hard time remembering when I last posted.  Seems like it has been awhile.  Monday was a busy day, we left about 11 am and it is my fault we left so late, just couldn't seem to get it together so we didn't get to Brainerd until at least 12:20.  We were due there by noon.  We were to have picked up Paul and Loretta but Paul was sick with a bad cold so he had to cancel.  We were invited along with Duane and Teresa to Dennis and Judy Autumn's  for lunch.  Had a lovely time.  Scalloped potatoes and ham and vegetables and dessert of course.  Left by 3pm, we had to stop at Cub on the way home but made it back in time to get ready to go out again, we had a Lion's dinner at The Woodsman, Jim came as a guest.  We had Prime Rib, we could bring wine.  
On Tue. that day seemed as busy, I made a new casserole, won't make it again, it was OK but nothing that stood out.  We had our Hill Toppers Christmas party at church.  White elephant gifts, there were 9 of us there,  9 of us, can you stand it.  Teresa works so hard setting everything up and no one hardly shows.  It was a fun event in spite of the few of us that showed up.  I think we should cancel until summer.  I will have to voice that. 
On Tue eve. I had tickets for The Lowe Family Christmas Spectacular and invited Linda Johnson, she cleans our church and we wanted to do something for her.  She cleans our church as her gift to the church.  That's 52 weeks a year times 4 hours each time at least.  It is one of the best gifts ever because it affects each and every family at Bethany.  We used to all take turns but when she moved back to Remer to be near her folks she took it on.  We went to dinner first at the Sawmill Inn, it really was a fun evening, at least until the drive home.  It started snowing about 30 miles from home quite heavy and it was white knuckle time.  Took my time and we made it home by 11pm just fine.  I love Linda, she is a real jewel.
Wed. dawned and Jim left the house by 7am.  He had to go to Mpls. for his annual check up, it has been at lease 30 years since his bladder cancer.  He is doing well.  He will be back tomorrow.  I know I need to get some things together for our trip down to Mpls. for Christmas but I sure am lazy today.  All I have done all day is eat.
