Usually our first place to go when I arrive in town is the Green Street Tavern. We chose instead to eat Friday night at Silver Valley which is easier for Mom to come and go. She fears the steps at the Green Street and dreads the being squished in the bar area as we wait for our table to be ready. Silver Valley was no wait and had great perch!
As we sat at the table and waited for our food to arrive, I looked up and saw Linda and her family standing in the doorway. What a surprise!!! I had not communicated with her about this or anything, they just showed up, with Tommy spotting Lynn's car in the parking lot.
Last night Lynn, Jill, Danny and I went to eat at The Green Street for dinner. It was delicious as always, one of the only places where I eat the salad because of their delicious French dressing. Don't know what it is about it, but I love the taste. We had an order of cheese curds for the table to share. I had perch, of course. Mom instructed me to not bring her anything from the G.S. so I obeyed her. It's her loss! The bartender/owner greeted me like a long lost friend, knowing I am in town from FL. He even recognized me without my red coat on!

At Christmas last year, Justin insisted on having a foam mattress pad delivered to Mom's for my sleeping comfort. It really makes all the difference on the day bed, allows me to sleep like a log. This is not so good because I don't get up in time to help Mom with her drops like I should. My sleep is such that I am well rested in the morning, snug as a bug in a rug. That is, until the train which sounds as though it's in the parking lot goes through. It has to toot its horn 16 times as it makes it way. Sleeping with the windows open has this as a downside---noise from outside!
Today I put the finishing touches on the church newsletter and got it sent off. It is somewhat abbreviated since I am missing content regarding the Bible studies and other info. I did get content from the preschool director with a wish list of things needed for the classroom. I also had to retype a report that the head elder had read the Sunday before I left. He didn't have it in digital form so I just typed it into the newsletter. That was a bit labor-intensive but I appreciate having submissions to the letter. Also, Terri wrote up something to be included regarding her time at the LWMS Convention. Her first time, subsidized by our Circuit, for the Send One Sister program. Very nice for her! Anyway, next order of business will be The Palace Press newsletter to be written, but it can wait a day or two.
