Mon.-Great day catching up on housework, making potato salad for tomorrow night, and making plans for the weekend. Marvin Glover passed away last week after a long bout with cancer. His viewing is tonight. We are going to his funeral tomorrow. We bought our farm from Marvin and Margaret.
Tues.-So many people came to Marvin's funeral that there was overflow in the fellowship hall. They could hear everything though. Susan and I sat in the last two seats. It was a beautiful day. Margaret and Marvin have been married 60 some years. Tonight we're going to Michael and Jessica's for a good bye party for Erin West. She is heading back to China on the 10th. VP debate in Farmville this eve. Apparently Pence won.
Wed.-Went out to Farmville and ran some errands and visited with Jessica, Judy, and went to Encounter meeting.
Thurs.-Jessica came over for a visit. I got us packed up for weekend and ran Alli and Nathan out to pick up her car and then I got a haircut from Jennifer H. There aren't many people like her. She is just dear. Made sushi in the evening to take along on our trip.
Fri.-Got up early and Phil drove us to Pa in the rain. Went to Anne's to visit, rest, shower, and change for Becca Berg and Andy Hollinger's wedding at the Berg Homestead. What a wonderful wedding. Becca is so special to me because I was there when she was born. Got to meet the midwife that was there. Everything was so beautiful, especially the bride, and the groom's face and demeanor when he saw her was priceless. It was wonderful to be with family and friends and it was also very fun to dance with the young people on the dance floor.
Sat.-Had a hard time moving. Felt like a hangover in my body only I don't even know what that feels like. I guess I should dance more often so my body doesn't go into shock. We had a nice morning with Joe, Karen, and Jonathan. Also stopped in for a quick visit with Mom and Dad and then we went over to Weaver's Orchard to pick up 4 fruit baskets and visit Anne and Ed a little. Then we headed to Rosalee's for a quick lunch of pizza supposedly. The driveway was full. She had a surprise for us. Uncle Paul and Aunt Ann Landis and Marie, Abie and Karen D. were there. She had a big meal which she served on Mother's china. She had homemade bread and jelly, broccoli salad, applesauce, chili, deviled eggs, ice cream, cool whip, and a pumpkin dessert. We had a wonderful time. Then Phil and I went to LMH for my 40th class reunion and had a great time reconnecting with old friends. It was especially good to see Jitter and Freda, Jane and Amos, John Stahl-Wert, Joyce Webster, Loretta Smucker, Nancy High, Twila Frey, Vonnie, and oh so many more. I just love our class. We left there 1 1/2 hours after it was over as did most everyone and went to Mabe and Naomi where we stayed along with John and Bev Wangler until after 11:30. Came home to Joe and Karen's and crashed.
Sun.-Woke up at 5. Had a little visit with Karen before everyone else woke up. Said our good bye's and had a huge breakfast at Mom and Dad's. Paul stopped in and then Logan. Wonderful visit. We left them after 10 and Phil drove us home as we listened to the end of John's book on CD-WITH. Got home in a little over 6 hours. We unpacked and caught up with Susan and are now heading over to Freeman's for homemade pizza and a visit with Joanna Balmer and her husband Rick and two children. We have been quite the party animals and we are tired!
