Home Day

Saturday, May 12, 2012

     Home chore day only we never got around to many chores.  Charles read Bob Green's book "History as it Lingers".  I worked on some things for our Writer's Bloc meeting in May, but didn't find what I wanted so didn't write a word except notes to research To Do.  I'm better at writing To Do lists than doing To Do lists.  Somewhere in the Bible it says that we shouldn't plan for tomorrow for the Lord has his own plans.  Obviously, that is a bad quote since I can't find it in the Bible.  Jim, Charles' grandson, asked me once what Charles had taught me.  Well!  I said, "to be more organized"  I guess I need a few more lessons on actually doing and less on lists are in order  I'll add it to my current To Do list.
     Charles also organized his Mother's Day present for me which was cooking dinner for me Sunday.  He made a pot of Clam Chowder and we sampled it at 'tea time'  Very good, but very salty for our usual fare.  Sue dropped by but we couldn't persuade her to help us eat all that chowder.  We did have our tea.  We have added a break after nap time to help us wake up;  a little tea, a little conversation and a little visit with Sue this Saturday.
     Sue is doing well and has been working way too hard to make up for the time she was not feeling well.  She is amazing.
    Victoria called Friday and told us a package was coming for Mom's Day and to put it in the freezer right away.  She and Charles conspired.  The clam chowder was part of the package.  We are going to have a feast!
