Monday's Weekend Recap...



Happy Monday.  Another weekend is behind us and I really have nothing too exciting to report.  



Friday Joe had two doctor appointments and I had lunch with Cindee and Shirley.  We met at Olive Garden and I had a really good entre that was only 600 calories. Having calories listed on the menus is sometimes frightening but it does allow us to make better decisions. Sigh.  I could easily be addicted to Alfredo sauce...

Our son, Joey, called Friday evening from Kuwait. It is always good to catch up with him - always!  Daughter-in-law(love) Darlene called last week too. She is busy with the horses but is trying to get her daughter, Rita, to meet here in Lakeland for a weekend. Rita lives down in Boca Rotan and can come up on the train. Hope it works out. We would love to see them both!

Saturday we went to Publix for a few things and I did say WE.  Joe is doing so much better that he was able to do some shopping with me and he also got the mail (which is a little walk too).  The physical therapy is helping.  He gets the MRI on his back tomorrow and we are hoping it will show that an epidural will help. Fingers crossed!  Your prayers are welcome and much appreciated.

Saturday evening we watched "Paul, Apostle of Christ" and also "I Can Only Imagine".  Excellent.



Sunday was another rainy day. I did laundry and we started watching The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel on Amazon.  It has been entertaining.  Not our favorite or something we usually watch, but it has us interested enough to continue watching.



Wishing you a good week ahead!! Thanks for your visit!  Peace & hugs!

  1. Glad you enjoyed your lunch with friends, and also glad Joe was able to walk some. Praying the MRI will give the doctors the info they need and that an epidural will be an answer. Have a good week ahead.

  10. Glad to hear Joe's mobility is returning so quickly! Yes, I'll continue to pray.
    So happy you mentioned these two movies I've been wanting to watch, but of course, had forgotten the titles. I'll have Danny rent them.
    Blessings, Terri!

  12. I like that little picture of you at the end of the post. I would like to try to make one. (have to google search it) It sure is hard to find good things to watch on tv or good movies! Enjoy your afternoon!

  15. I'm commenting on this on Tuesday morning because after I commented on your Tuesday post, I realized I had not read Monday yet.

    Praying now for Joe's MRI today that answers will be clear and relatively easy to implement. It's so good that he is getting around better. When we can keep ourselves upright and moving, that's very good!!
