Happy Birthday Sheri!
It's hard to imagine that my baby girl is 51!
It was very windy, cold and snowing this morning but Sheri still went out on her run. She is determined, consistent and disciplined.
She was back in time to leave for the temple at 8:30. Sheri wanted to drive even though it was snowing and James suggested he should drive.
There was no snow after the Y and the roads were fine. When we got to the temple the wind made it extremely cold. As I got out of the car, James was getting our bags out of the backseat when I noticed a paper fly and land against the front tire. I bent down and picked it up when I realized it was the name I had given to James. Last time it was his recommend, this time the name he was going through for.
After our session while Sheri and I were waiting in the upstairs common area for James, Stefani Hunsaker got off the elevator. We hugged each other and I introduced her to Sheri when I realized they had already met. Stefani helped at Ben & Cayli's wedding dinner. I always love seeing Stefani on Friday's when we come to the temple.
We wanted to take a picture outside of the temple but it was too windy. Sheri did take a selfie as we were going in to Eva's.
at my hair and James's hair.
We paid for Sheri's lunch at Eva's. She bought salsa to take home to Ian. That was his request. He had a migraine headache this morning.
We stopped at Trapper's for pie. Sheri bought two pieces of lemon, one chocolate Oreo and one blueberry. We agreed that the lemon and chocolate Oreo were good, but Sheri did not like the blueberry, she said it had an after taste. James had to finish the piece.
Sheri started a puzzle yesterday. Its the world destination puzzle, one that has letters on the back to help put it together, but Sheri ignores those, she likes more of a channel. She made the comment that she wanted to finish before she left but wasn't sure she would be able to.
I began helping her, only I used the letters on the back. I began with the A's. We finished in a couple of hours. Sheri has traveled to 10 places on the puzzle and I have traveled to only 5. We enjoyed each others company and we worked side by side. I have needed this kind of closeness with one of my children.
During Inklings yesterday Emily mentioned that she and her husband looked forward to watching an episode of "All Creatures Great and Small" by James Herriot. Stacy had recommended this PBS series to me quite some time ago so I had over 20 episodes taped. We watched episode 1 of season 2. I didn't have season 1.
It is the story of James Herriot, a veterinarian in the British Isles back in the early 1900's. Sheri seemed a little underwhelmed and after the episode she went down to read and go to bed.
BTW Tom enjoyed laying on Sheri's lap while we were watching TV. He left mine to lay on her. He did come back to me eventually.
I'm watching Murdoch Mysteries and frustrated because Julia has left to accept a job in a hospital in Buffalo because she is in love with Murdoch but doesn't think she can marry him because she can't give him children.
