Barb heard a noise in the car she didn't like. It turned out to be the sway bar which Dale fixed. If it had been done at the shop it could cost around $150.00. Lucky me to have Dale to fix things.
In Jan. I saw the Dr. & he wanted me to have some blood tests. The office called & said he wanted me to have another one in 2 months. So I had one & the office called again & wanted to change my meds. I take 2 pills instead of one. It is my thyroid acting up. Maybe that's why I lost some weight. Now I'll have to be careful so I won't gain weight. It was affecting me in small ways & already I feel better.
Last Fri we went to Jamestown - -Bon Ton had a sale & both Barb & I found tops we liked & bot. This Fri we are going to Erie (no school) & maybe we'll have more success. (Enclosed cartoon.)
Good for JoAnna making a speech. That brings back memories. In Great Falls I took a public speaking course at the Y.W. It was fun. We had to give speeches & then be graded by the group. There were good things bout Gt. Falls. 2 children born there.
What is taught in the student enrichment time?
Both boys did well in their grades.
Barb recommends the movie "Band of Angels", a movie she got at the library. Clark Gable & Yvonne De Carlo & it is a Civil War movie. She really enjoyed it. She bo't a D.V.D, V.C.R. as the old V.C.R. wasn't that good. In putting it in place she hfound the remote for the L.R. TV.
Jessie Franberry who sits with us in church -- I've mentioned her before -- was upset last Sun. as they won't let her drive anymore because of her medication. She is heartbroken but that day comes for everyone. Then we were told the organ needs repairs to the tune of $3500.00 W'll have a congregational mtg. in May to decide. We finally have a talented organist so I hope it can get done. I'm willing to give toward it.
We didn't get snow last weekend but it was cold. 40's. Showers thru the wee & the grass is so green & needs mowing. This is Dale's late Tues. & the weather is nice. Maybe toward the end of the week he can now.
Sun. nite I watched Oakland at the L.A. Angels. If I was an A.L. fan I'd be for the Angels. They won 1-0.
Last nite the Braves were at the Mets. Mets won but it was dicey until the last out. 5-4 Mets. Tye are much improved & finally have a new 1st baseman whose name I find hard to remember. This is how I do it, can't spell his name either. Mc-Tave-itch. That is what it sounds like when the announcers say it. Mientkiewicz. He is a good first basement.
Thurs A.M. the 28th
I'm taking a coffee break. Most of my Thurs chores are done. Made a spice cake for dessert & it smells so good. We're having pork & applesauce. Will make a corn pudding for a veggie.
Tues nite Dale got home a little after 8 pm & it was still a little light left so Dale mowed the lawn. We have had so many "showery" days it is hard for Dale to find a dry spell. Good we don't have much to mow.
Barb borrowed a video catalog from Lynn. She found movies she'd like to order but they aren't available anymore. Her first choice "Band of Angels". Lynn said maybe it is available on the internet. She found it & it cost $70.00! Barb said to get it & take it out of her pay. She ordered a set of "Bonanza" but returned them as they were so bad. Hard to look at.
Break time is over -- must clean the sink in the laundry room.
Every year the Kiwanis sponsors a blood testing clinic at Beaty. Kim & Lar go every other year. Lar hates needles & the one he got had trouble taking the blood. Kim said Larry got green & just about passed out. This happens every time he has to have a blood test.
Kim & her girlfriends are going to the Indian Casino tomorrow. It's a snow day. Everyone talks about the food there, that it is wonderful. I said we should go up there when Dale is on vacation. He said eh would. It would be fun to see it & maybe spend a few quarters & then have dinner. I think it would be fun.
