February 1, 2023

After breakfast I changed all the calendars to February, as well as the Peanuts wooden wall one. It always takes some time to figure out what I need to remember, like National holidays and personal obligations!

After I did that, I got out the valentine decorations and started placing them around the house. Last thing I put out was the M&M’s. It’s only the 1st, so I may need more. I’m going to try to keep my hands out of the bowl!

This is the last Valentine Grama Crooks sent me and I’m so glad I have it!

Diane came over about 11:30, and she brought homemade chicken salad (with cranberries!). I had croissants for sandwiches, and we heated up some stuffed pepper soup. She also brought popcorn but we didn’t get around to that! We watched the black-and-white movie ‘You Can’t Take it With You’ and it was very funny. Nice afternoon.

Nate got home from his surgery about an hour ago. He sent me pictures which I won’t share as they aren’t for the squeamish! They dug clear to the skull, behind his ear. He was in good spirits and Jen said he was dancing around the operating room… But I’m sure he’ll have pain and some restrictions, as well as a few side effects. He’s off the rest of the week so he’ll be able to heal up safely. As Aunt Cordelia (Kathy) said, Our poor dear Nathan! Thanks in advance for prayers on his behalf…

We have out first Bible Study tonight on Ephesians. I think the sessions will run through May. That’s all I have planned for the rest of the evening.

Fun things to do in Texas: Museums –

TOMORROW February 2nd is:

Optimist Day; National Tater Tot Day; National Ground Hog Day; National Heavenly Hash Day.

Ground Hog day is fun – I have four little Beanie Baby ground hogs. They’ll celebrate too. It will be a good day; I’m optimistic about that! Have a happy Thursday. God bless…
