Two Beautiful Days

Hello all,

We have had two beautiful fall days. It must be Indian summer. Whatever it is, we are certainly enjoying it.

John hasn't felt all that great the last couple of days. We ran some errands yesterday and John slept in the parking lots of the couple of stores I went into. I guess it's good he can do that. He probably slept a grand total of about four hours yesterday and then went to bed and slept all night as well. I guess his body just needs rest.

Today he walked to the mailbox and back with his cane. He did very well. He went slow and walked very methodically and looked like a pro. His eye has bothered him quite a bit today. We should know more about that at his eye appointment on Wednesday. He is waiting on himself more and got himself a huge bowl of ice cream. I said, "That's an awfully big bowl of ice cream." He said, "Maybe for mere mortals. . ." which made me laugh really hard.

His sister Marilyn and niece Reggie came and visited today. Christina Anselment Z. (I don't know how to spell her married name) also stopped by. John used to work with her at the bank and was very glad to see her. It was so nice of her to stopy by. Sue Tomlin and her mom, Ann, also came this afternoon. It was very nice to see all of them.

We sat outside in the swing this afternoon for a little while. It was such a beautiful day and the temperature was just perfect.

We were so sorry to hear about the death of Phil Huffer's step-mother. Please pray for that family. We also ask that you pray for Van and Delores; pray for wisdom for the doctors and guidance for Van and Delores' decision about what's best. We thank you for your continued prayers and thoughts for us. Thanks for reading.

Love,

John and Cathy
