There was a blood mobile at your church today. You decided to give blood so you can find out what your blood type is. Also they talked about a great need for blood at church. You haven’t given blood for “ten years.” You want to have a card to carry in your wallet that has your blood type on it. I’m not sure why you want to do that.
You found out your blood type is A+.

Tonight you go to the church that houses families through Interfaith Hospitality Network. I looked it up and it looks like the name changed to Family Promise. It seems like you have been involved with this ministry for 7 or 8 years. It’s another thing you do to give back to the community and try to help other people you don’t even know. You never complain about sleeping there even though it can’t be very comfortable.

You still have that darn pain in your neck. You went to spin class anyway and are going about your day. You don’t want me to worry. I just wish you would go get a massage! You really work your body and it has a hard time keeping up with your to do list!

I’m not sure what you did today but today is Jami’s birthday. You are taking her to lunch tomorrow. Jami is one of your most favorite people. How could anyone not love Jami. We are very lucky to have her in our family. She has been a blessing to all of us, especially Grant of course.

You played tennis today with your neighbor, Denise. She is going through a stressful time.
You have had a pain in your right neck for 3 days. You say it’s a cold in your neck. You are using a massage cushion.
Don had good news about getting his car repaired after being hit from behind. The other person’s insurance will pay for everything including a rental car.

You texted me to ask if I have a pair of gray tights you are missing. I am sure you did not leave them here when you came for Christmas. It made me think of one time last year when you could not find your cell phone. You knew it had to be in the house. Don helped you look and you looked everywhere you could think of. After a long search you found it on the kitchen counter. You were sure it was some kind of divine intervention or trickery.
You found the tights in the dryer. The same thing happens at my house!

Ted reserved a 3 bedroom – 2 bath dog friendly house for his retirement trip in July. You reserved a 3 bedroom 3 bath house in the same area. We decided to go Tuesday – Saturday, July 21 – 25. Grant wants to work Monday of that week.

We watched an exciting football play off game yesterday between Kansas City and Tennessee. Kansas City won so they are going to the Superbowl! This year the Superbowl is the day after Don’s birthday and ON Eric’s 29th birthday. Your grandchildren are getting OLD!

We have had a lot of discussion today about planning a retirement trip for Ted. So far we have come up with taking a trip to Kentucky and going to Mammoth Cave in July. Ted wants to take his dogs so we have a choice of 2 houses, not so nice, and not big enough for all of us. We found a second house for Grant’s family and you and Don. We’ll see what happens…

You have been working on getting pictures together of your family and Don’s family for your refrigerator. You finished it and texted a picture of all the different faces with the names and birthdays of each person. You have 36 people to remember because Jillian has her boyfriend in her picture. Pretty soon Danny and Mary will have a baby girl to add to the refrigerator door. You asked for a picture of “David – Isabel” but we don’t have a picture from recent years.
