Happy Labor Day
I consider this holiday a blessing. I needed the time to clean up after all my visitor (brother and family). Lots of laundry. Did that. Corky found a recipe for hot rolls that he thought looked easy and delicious in one of my doctor's waiting room. He didn't rip out the page. Good boy! He asked the receptionist to make a copy for him. He hasn't seen or tasted them yet, sut I'm betting he's going to be disappointed. Of course its my fault.
Had a really good visit with my brother and his three grown children. We live so far apart it seems like it is hard to communicate sometimesbut we share a 98 year old mother so we still have a connection.
About 98 year old mother. She has such wonderful stories to tell about her growing-up days. She was born on December 5, 1909. She rode a horse to a one-room school. She started school late because she waited for her younger brother to be old enough to go, too. She tells about a spectacular barn fire wher she felt guilty for putting her horse back into the barn that burned instead of tying her to a fence post. They thought maybe the cause of the holocaust was a tub of wash water that my mother's mother had been using - thinking she hadn't put the fire under the tub completely out. If you keep following me, I'll tell you more stories from Mother.
We had a wonderful Lord's day. A gentleman our Elders had prayed over was healed. It was pretty obviously healed, because it was a skin thing. He got staph infection in a poison ivy blister. They probably would have called that leprosy in Bible times. It really looked awful. I won't tell you it was all gone, but we could all see it was 90 percent healed.We all are so thankful.
Corky is playing golf today. They have this scramble thing. (I don't know much about golf) every holiday. He got up at 6:30 a.m. to get to the country club to play. For me, a holiday is getting to sleep late, so I did.
I am gone for today, but I'll be back tomorrow.
