Do you brake for yardsales????

There's going to be a BIG one right next door to us tomorrow (Friday) and Saturday. Nathan, Kathy, Graham, Abigail, Joy, Esther and Elijah are having a yardsale to help raise money for an upcoming mission trip that will take them half-way (or more) around the world. They and their friends have been donating their "junk" so it can become your treasure. As I walked upstairs there were at least five vehicles dropping off more items for the sale. There was already a lot of stuff but now there is a lot more. Woody has spent quite a bit of time over there today helping them price items. (See if you can spot Woody in this picture...this can sort of be like a "Where's Waldo picture"...instead it is a "Where's Woody picture!"

Woody got up earlier than me today...thank goodness as my alarm didn't go off at 4:15am as it was supposed to (wouldn't you know that it wouldn't when you need it to!). Nathan, Abigail and I set off for Nashville and Vanderbilt Children's Hospital around 4:40am. We got to the hospital a little after 6am. Abigail's surgery was scheduled for 7:45am, but they didn't take her to surgery till 8am. It was a quick surgery and she did well. We were back on the road to Tullahoma a little after 9am and we were home by 10:30am.

While I was gone Woody cleaned up the kitchen, went to the Post Office, read, and priced yardsale items. After I got home, Woody showered and I changed his dressing and flushed his lines.

We are waiting for more heparin syringes that we use to flush his lines to come from NIH as we ran out today. I contacted them on Sunday when I realized that they hadn't given us enough to make it through till we see them next week. And they were supposed to send us more, but so far they haven't arrived. We did receive an overnighted package of supplies (Tues.) that we needed...but the syringes were being sent by the pharmacy. Maybe they will arrive tomorrow. I will be on the phone in the morning to see if there is a solution to the problem if they don't arrive tomorrow.

Oh, one of the ladies in the Post Office this morning asked Woody about his new do!

Y'all come tomorrow, if you are in our vicinity...come check and see if perhaps Nathan and Kathy might have a treasure for you!
