Happy feet and tummy

What a great day we had today!  This a.m. we ladies went to Sassy's to have our feet attended to, Mom's treat. Lori drove Mom and me over to the salon, meeting Lynn there. When we pulled up to let Mom out, one of the ladies came running out to scoot her along with her walker into the salon, as though time was short. It was not but nevertheless....The urgency was rather comical. Unfortunately Jill was not able to join us as it's a work day for her. 

After we were all finished, polished and dried, we reconvened at Culver's for some lunch. That was nice for the four of us. Mom usually goes here for lunch with Linda when the two of them go to the beauty shop each month. I like their single Butter Burger. From there we went to the ice cream parlor to have a treat with Jill. She made me a lovely cherry sundae, the special of the day. Oh, my, such a wonderfully refreshing treat!

This evening Jill, Lynn, and I went to Bible study at church, a study about creation and Genesis, lead by a teacher from the area Lutheran High School. Man, this is so interesting. Tonight the discussion was about dinosaurs and the Flood. That was the quickest hour of the week, and the attendance for this session was good. Tommy and Linda were there, too. It compares Creation with the theory of evolution with scientists backing up the Bible. Quite interesting!

Lori wanted to eat out for dinner but since we had this Bible study tonight, we waited to eat until after the class was done. Lynn opted out, didn't want to go and eat at this hour, while Jill, Lori, Linda and I went to Harborside to have dinner. Linda had eaten dinner already but came along to hang out with us. We had delicious food, of course, and due to the hour (after 7:30), we had good service as well. Lori and I are accustomed to eating at this hour where most of our family is not. Lori was gracious enough to take Linda home after we were done eating as Tom had gone along home. He was not invited, that lucky guy. I greatly appreciated the time spent with my sisters and my friend today, no matter the hour.
