Helped the kids at the Mission. Not much homework. The 4-5th grade kids start the Milestone test tomorrow. That usually means no homework for them these two weeks.

One of the kids has an electric scooter. I helped him find a charger for it.

Kathy interacting with one of our kids. I was trying to get her to smile.

Picked up groceries.

It’s a way of life.

Cool day. Down to 41 this morning!

Screenshot

Gassed up my car and changed the oil.

Went to Walmart to buy about $150 of candy for our Easter Party this afternoon.

I put my Mom’s new mattress on my bed a few days ago. I put my old mattress in my storage area. That cleared out the area beside my bed.

Watered my plants.

K and I took the girls to Waffle House.

Found out that one of the Summer teams isn’t coming. The Youth Director is going to a new Church and no one stepped up to lead.

Went to Stone Mountain to record a new episode of Verbal Surgery called, “Name Game 2.” The number I have to add because sometime in the last twenty years I’ve been recording I used the same title. It’s a good one!

K wanted Lisa’s number. There’s something kind of odd going on at the top of our street that she thought Lisa might know something about it.

Screenshot

Refilled the feeders. Sometimes the food is on the ground where the majority of birds feed.

Went to Lowe’s to use their Minute Key machine. Needed a couple more church keys and a complete set of mine copied.

Processed and deposited checks. Thank you, Father!

Pollen is bad but not EXTREMELY bad.

Screenshot

Took Mom to get her hair cut and trimmed. I think it helps her feel better. I’m for that.

We had Rotech deliver the oxygen concentrator for K. She thought it was too heavy. I’m getting her a special Rollator chair so she’ll have space to put that O2.
