Bingo Night!

Well, this afternoon I spent time sitting on the porch and reading. Something I rarely do for pleasure, but a good time to start. I started reading from the book Chicken Soup for the Surviving Soul. The part that got my attention, as I was flipping through pages, was the story: Not Without A Fight. The quote that was listed was:
Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans. John Lennon

This kind of hit home because I am always trying to schedule everything. Well, the story went to talk about taking time to feel the breeze when you are outside and taking time to dip your feet in some cool water, just because. Simple pleasures bring great happiness. I realized how simple God's plan is, yet how complicated we humans make His earth.
Enough about that, except I want you to remember to enjoy the simple things in life.

A group of college students came in tonight to feed us chicken stir fry. Actually they are pre-med students. Pop ate everything on his plate except for half a cookie. Then he went up to the room for a little while. I stayed for the games (as Shannon suggested). Yes, it was BINGO tonight. Another group of students came in to do games. One guy was 6' 10" and Sam said he was more like 5' 22". He was hilarious! We figured he was a basketball player, but he played safety and punter for football. Go figure! I played a few games and did not win. Sam then came down and played a couple rounds. Well, we finally did win and we picked a photo frame as our prize (we would get a picture of all the grandkids to put in it). While we played our last game we also enjoyed a banana popsicle. Now it is time to rest!
We will see everyone tomorrow!
