Our Weekend

We had a special treat this weekend, a visit from Sara. She got in town around 6:00 on Friday evening. We met for a catfish/chicken liver dinner at Henderson's. When we got back to the house she and I got busy downstairs doing some measuring and planning for their up coming move into their house in Valdosta. She was up and off by 8 for breakfast with Samuel and then on to the airport to pick up Igor, an interpreter from Ukraine. We missed seeing Ryan and the children but hope it won't be long before we can all get together. Oh and on Friday night we get a call from Chesed. She is on her way to Summer's and needs a few directions. I give her what she needs and hang up. In a little bit she calls back and seems that Patrick has left his directions at home and he, too, needs some directions. CAN WE SAY THIS IS A MATCH MADE IN HEAVEN ALREADY OR WHAT?????? On Saturday we spent most of the day resting and doing the WEEKLY laundry. I did get up and fix us two Lean Cuisines for supper. Yum Yum. Sunday we attended church @ North Atlanta which is always a treat. The lady in front on us was from Bradford, Tn. Can you believe that??? After church we met Summer, Josh, Luke, Chesed and Patrick for lunch. We were excited to get to met and greet this Patrick fellow(some people were not sure what his name was..Summer called him Eric and Norman called him Matthew)that we have been hearing sooooooo much about. He was very good natured about all that, thank goodness. Yes, we do agree they are definitely SMITTEN!!! Is that polictically correct? He has our vote!! Now is that for a husband or President of the USA?????(Chesed as first lady?) Anyway, it sounds like May will be the month of marriages!!! We are excited for both of them. After a delicious meal (Max and Erma's again-those chocolate chip cookies are soooo worth the drive) and a little fellowship, Norman and I headed off to an Estate Sale-half price today. We did find some deals which will be delivered tomorrow. We went by the hospital to visit our new friend Kate who is in therapy there recovering from an Acquired Brain Injury. We could not believe the how much more alert she was this time. It had been 3 weeks since we had seen her. She reached her hand out to Norman and made eye contact with me. She is not speaking yet but we are praising God for this progress. Her stay @ Shepherds as been extended which is a good sign. Next we made a stop to look at a used washer and dryer we had seen advertised in the paper. The people were very nice and we enjoyed visiting with them. They lived in a high-rise condo on Peachtree. The view was gorgeous and the washer and dryer had only been used about 8 times. It will be perfect for Sara and Ryan. Needless to say, by the time we got home we were pretty pooped. It is late and I must go to bed for Monday will be here shortly. Hope everyone has a wonderful week.
