This morning broke grey and drizzly (Is that a word??) here in Cabot. It has stayed that way all day, drizzling off and on and not getting out of the 50s. I guess it's a little dreary, but it sure made for a brisk run early this afternoon... nice!
I got some work done today... caught up on some emails, prepared Sunday's powerpoint, including new backgrounds for a couple of songs, worked on class some.
In the afternoon Mom and I went out to visit Jim Green and his family. Jim has been taking care of Mom's yard and other things around the house for several years, and his family treats her like she's part of their family. Well, Jim had a heart attach and bypass surgery last week. He came home yesterday, so we went to see him. He's doing much better.
Being at their house is sort of what you might imagine visiting the Waltons might have been like. First, the house is really big, 2-story and complete with finished attic and basement. And, there are 4 generations living there. Jim and his wife, Patsy; Patsy's mother; their daughter, Tammy, and husband, along with their 3 kids. They all pitch in and do their parts, and it all seems to go smoothly. Sounds sorta like the Welch family, eh!?! Not every family could do that. :-)
After leaving the Green house, we went for some Mexican food at a local place. The service was hampered a bit by the language barrier... yes, here in Cabot, AR... but the food was good. After that we went by Walmart so I could pick up some paint and siding wash. Need to do some washing and touch up on Mom's siding tomorrow. It's supposed to be up in the mid-60s and clear.
Well, it's early, but I think I can feel another bowl of ice cream coming... that is if those green chilly enchiladas settle down a bit.
