The "wheels" have started turning for our next trip to Bethesda...we will "the good Lord willin' be there a week from today. I just made our reservations on Pooks Hill once again. We plan to leave next Tuesday, March 1, and go the full distance that day. Woody has his test scheduled fairly early on Wednesday. This time he will "only" have labs and a CT scan. So once the CT is finished we will be free for the rest of the day. Then the next day he has an appointment during the docs clinic time which starts after their lunch. So at this point it is just throw a few things into a suitcase and we will be ready to go! The trip seems to get easier...both making reservations and getting ready...guess we have done it enough times now that things sort of just fall into place...some of the stuff I never unpack. Nathan brought the suitcases of theirs that we use back over to our house today as they had used them on their trip to Southeast Asia...so these suitcases are well traveled!
Esther started riding a bike with training wheels today. Their whole family enjoy taking family bike rides. The three girls have graduated up a size in bikes this Spring...exciting times! Esther still calls her "new" bike "Joy's bike!"
Woody went to the grocery store this morning. This has thrown my day off...I keep thinking that it is Saturday since that is his usual grocery shopping day. I did remember to go for my hair appointment today...so wasn't totally confused! The little girls opted out not to come for school this morning...they had plans for Joy to practice riding her unicycle with their daddy after Joy's school time at home this morning...so they were afraid that coming for my school would delay things! Abigail came over and we worked a little more on her sewing project. And, Graham came over to do a school lesson with K'nex. Today he built a "block and tackle" learning about how pulleys lessen the weight of a load (Grammy is learning too!). He knew that he had seen a block and tackle used somewhere...he finally remembered that his daddy had something like this that he uses in the "process" after he kills a deer...ummmmmm I didn't ask a lot of questions in that direction...not much of a hunter myself! I figured that Graham knew what he was talking about when he told me exactly how many pulleys were on this apparatus!
After Woody's grocery store excursion, he sort of took it easy this afternoon...reading, watching a DVD, and resting his eyes. I completed the sewing project that I had been working on. did several loads of wash, took a short rest and started another book. The library called today saying that they had a book that I had requested. This evening, Woody has walked to the church for his time in the prayer room.
