Had a great time serving the (weekly) gathering meal at the Methodist church with our small group again this year! (Susan and Dennis Slaughter, Joyce Schrepel, Joy Reed, Mary Brown, Thresea and Duane Wright and Terry and I. Jane (Joyce’s friend from Phoenix) also helped. Kay Hill was sick and Marian Wiese went to Texas)
Served our traditional tater tot casserole (one pan left over) with cabbage slaw, buns and dessert (mostly chocolate brownies!)
Terry said I should go weekly to consult with my friends there:
Rita Goebel complaining that she was in the ER again today with chest pains and the “stupid doctors” can't figure out what is wrong with her.
Lowell Larsen remembering our HHC with his wife Pauline who is now at Bethel (7 yrs)
Rich Caldwell who wanted to know how to get a job in home care so he could help take care of the old folks (he is 75)
Norma Caldwell who wanted to know how to interact with her friend who has Alzheimer’s.
Dick Boldt, Paul Nordaune
JoAnn Williams who looked terrible despite having lost a lot of weight. But her appetite is still HUGE.
Linda Johnson “didja know Gaylen is in the Nursing Home?”
John Barrick
Missing Pearl Edythe Johnson this year...
Palmquists
Valiant Living friends.
Dorothy Bahr still there bossing everyone around.
Sara Hock
Youth pastor Andy (spent most of his time on smart phone, but he did run the dishwasher)
Frank Beasley who was kind of rude (very rude!) and asked to talk to my pastor/leader about how rude I was because I called him Frank and thanked him for coming (he was just on his way to get more food and thought I told him goodbye.) Or something. Anyway he told Susan that they should bury me in a whole and burn me up. Thought he was joking but he was dead serious. Ouch. I thought that I was being friendly and hospitable. Then got burned in a hole!
Maybe next year will be better.
