Sunday on Monday

We didn't have internet connection last night so I couldn't post. I thought that I was going to have to go over to Nathan and Kathy's this morning to reconnect...but we just tried again and we are connected! Now to tell you what happened yesterday.,.that is "if" I can remember!

We got up and Woody suggested that we go to the 8:30am church service. It was the first time that we had gone to the church service in almost two years. We hadn't been as Woody has been trying to avoid crowds. He had planned to start going back to the church service when the doctors took him off his broad spectrum antibiotic. He was to take that for six months after he had his TIL treatment...which will be next month. But his doctor told him that he would be taking it beyond the six month time. A certain count in his lab work has to be above a certain number for two months. We are going to check back with the doctor to find out just exactly which count that is...we didn't retain specifics...just the general information...when she told us the other day! It was good to be back in church. We were welcomed back by many...AND...the spot where we always sat was unoccupied so we settled right back in! After church we both headed to our Sunday School classes and we both taught.

We came back home and started getting ready to be snowed in! I made a big pot of soup...Italian Spinach Soup with Meatballs...LOTS of little meatballs were made! It is good...not a soup that we have often. Woody took about an hour walk in the afternoon. While he was gone all five of the neighbor grandchildren came over while Kathy and Nathan finished getting ready to hit the road. The children decided to do art work...all five piled into our office/school room. It was funny to see them all try to fit around a table that is meant for two! Paper was flying...scissors were snipping...crayons were scribbling...art tub got opened...treasures were found...good time had by all...the room can attest to it! After they left I finished making the soup. While I was finishing up the soup Woody walked to the post office to mail something...we figured that we might not have mail service "if" what was predicted would come true...a BIG snow.

And, I will report on that big snow this evening in our Monday blog! (But I will say that it is certainly a beautiful sight out our windows this morning!) The blog picture shows a VA Blue Ridge wintry landscape taken on our way to Bethesda, MD (NIH) last week.
