Rev Bill

I am finally taking time to sit down and blog about what’s been up with me the past 2 weeks. It has been wild!

Sunday, February 8 — The grand daughter of a home bound member of the Church is very sick. I find out she is critical and go see her — and her grand father. I then rush to Church for a meeting and Choir Practice, but find out at Choir Practice that she died. I go back to grand father’s house after Choir Practice.

Monday, February 9 — Between visiting with the family, some friends help me put up a dog lot in our yard — then Sally and I go out to supper with some friends.

The drain line on our washing machine starts to back u[ every time we wash clothes.

Tuesday, February 10 — I attend burial and visit with grand father.

Wednesday, February 11 — Begin to feel sick — sore throat and cold.

Attend meeting of Ministers Association and teach class at Church for Wednesday Night programs.

Crash at home — but get a call that an inactive member of the Church has died. I call the family and make plans to meet with them the next day.

Thursday, February 12 — Still sick — visit with family, plan service, go to Men’s Club meeting.

Friday, February 13 — Decide I need a Z – Pack. Call doctor and get Z-Pack.

Find our the grandmother of a member died — call member and speak with him.

Write sermon and “lay low” — continue to be in touch with family of inactive member who died.

Saturday, February 14 — Second day of Z-Pack.

A friend and I try to unclog washing machine drain line — but no luck.

Continue to be in touch with family of inactive member who died.

Black Berry phone starts acting up.

Go to Church supper for Valentine’s Day — then to Funeral Home visitation of member’s grand mother.

Sunday, February 15 — Day 3 of Z Pack — beginning to feel better — but missing Black Berry! Didn’t realize how addicted I was to the thing!

Typical Sunday schedule — Sunday School — worship — then funeral for inactive member and Choir Practice.

Get call that one of home bound members died. Call family — plan to visit next day.

Monday, February 16 — Day 4 of Z Pack. Feeling better. Still going through Black Berry withdrawals.

Visit family of member who died yesterday.

Take Black Berry to AT&T store — they suggest I send in for a replacement. Call for replacement.

Extra long Session meeting Monday night.

Tuesday, February 17 — Day 5 of Z Pack — much better. About ready to scream without Black Berry.

Do a puppet show at Elmcroft — a nursing home in town — then go to a meeting at Presbytery office.

Have a Pre-Marriage Counseling Session with a couple.

Come home and phone (land line) not working. Begin to wonder what will go wrong next — but seem to enjoy the peace and quiet!

Wednesday February 18 — Off of Z Pack — still no phone — Black Berry or land line.

Visited with family of member who died — made several calls to plan service.

Our dog (a 3 pound, 10 year old Maltese) begins bleeding from bak end for second time in 2 months — rush to vet.

Replacement Black Berry arrives — decide to take to AT&T store next day to get it set up.

Taught lesson for Wednesday Night program — then went to Funeral Home visitation.

Thursday, February 19 — Funeral service for member.

Vet calls — dog may have bladder stones. Will keep her another day and do x – rays.

Take Black Berry to AT&T store and get set up. Feel much better with Black Berry back.

Visit member whose mother is in hospital — get there just in time for them transferring her to ICU. Talk to member for about an hour — then came home.

Finish setting up Black Berry — synchronize with computer — then switch land line phones to different outlets. They work wonderfully. Don’t know why — but am thankful.

Friday, February 20 — Enjoy having Black Berry and land line phones back!

Wrote sermon for Sunday and type minutes of several meetings I was behind on typing.

Pick up dog from vet — scheduled for surgery on bladder stones in a few weeks.

Yea — it’s been a rough 2 weeks!
