Hertzler Doings~Aug. 17-23, 2015

Mon.-Erin went on a 7 mile run this morning and Davi went with her. They picked up another dog on Mt. Pleasant and Susan later knocked on the neighbor's doors until she found someone who knew 'Dixie.' She and Erin went to the gym. I did some more work in the old house, made some food, exercised, memorized some Psalms, read a book, did some wash, etc. The rag weed must be flourishing. Running a temp. 99.6. Sometimes I am normal but most days I have a temp. Not sure what is going on. Been like this for over a month.

Tues.-Ran errands in Farmville and got drenched in the rain. Met Jessica after work and she showed me her house and dried my clothes in the dryer. Much nicer to finish shopping at Walmart without being sopping wet.

Wed.-Watched some TV with Janelle and Micah. Came home and did some stuff and watched 'The Theory of Everything'. Stephen Hawkings. The guy who acted his part should win many awards. Nice eve. hanging out with Susan. Temp. 100.3. Starting to wonder if that bee sting I got in CA is giving me issues.

Thurs.-Kathy L. came to HV in the eve! Talked with Mom on the phone. Janelle and Helen and their children went to King's Dominion for the day and had a great time.

Fri.-Alli and N came over to visit and we went over to see Kathy. Lungs are really bothering me. Made some tea towels out of flour sack material that Mickey had given me and altered a dress. Studied some from Michael's oil book. Dusted. Looked through a box of photos. Worked in the garden. Walked. And not in that order at all. Susan starting her first real day of work tonight. The past six days of work have been training.

Sat.-Had a nice time with Nathan today while F/A worked on their yard. Then I cleaned up a little, went over to HV, rested and read. Went to bed early and slept through the night. Philip had a game. Lost.Erin got stopped by a cop in Farmville after the game. She had forgotten to turn her lights on.

Sun.-Had a wonderful Chinese meal by Erin West in the eve. She put us to work making dumplings but first we had cooked meat, mixed ingredients with thawed meat, super chopped carrots, mushrooms, garlic, and onions. tore up cabbage, and cleaned green beans. We made egg custard dessert first and then assembled dumplings when all other ingredients were ready. She stir-fried the green beans and then the cabbage while we boiled the dumplings in water. There were ten of us around the table. Phil and I, Michael and Jessica, Susan and Erin, Philip, Samantha, Tommy, and Tayloe. Tommy brought apple strudel cupcakes. Later, we watched Hobbit 2. Only Phil and Erin were still awake at the end. Erin spent the night.
