It’s been a busy day.  I spent a few hours with Marie since I will not have another day this week to do so.  She was happy to see me and we enjoyed looking at a dog magazine.  How she laughed at some of the photos.  She loves animals.

I left around 1:30.  She was getting sleepy and I had to get to Curves and make an attempt to win the window decorating contest sponsored by the Maine International Film Festival.  I doubt if we win, (I don’t think we’re “politically correct” enough for that crowd) but we want to show our community support. 

Got some groceries before coming home to pick raspberries and bring in the laundry from the clothesline.  The berries are spectacular this year.  Almost 4 quarts tonight.  Since I divided my plants, picking is much easier too. 

My brother-in-law, Steve, called today to tell us that Mother is getting weaker by the day and losing more weight.  If things don’t come around, she is not going to be with us for long.  They are taking some steps for more care for her and she is not going to like it.  Pray God will work in her heart to comply with what is best for her.  She’s so weak, (and has been for so long) she loses her perspective about how much she has eaten, and what her needs are. 

I may not get to write for the next several days.  A sweet woman named Amy is on her way home from a very dangerous mission field and will spend a few days here before flying to Texas to be with her family.

Susan, do you think Marie would like a visit from Rigel, or would she be intimidated.

Rigel has visited in a nursing home before and did quite well, for a very large, friendly, and occasionally over-exuberant black lab....
