Lois' obituary was posted on the Bueler Mortuary website.
We continue to be grateful to Cathi, Terry, Dave & Laura for all that they are doing.
James and I made an early trip to town today hoping to get back by 10:30 when Kat & Larry, some workers her hired, are coming to help sand and stain the logs.
Our first stop was at Harbor Freight where James bought a new power sprayer. It cost right at $500. We have been wanting one for a long time. James dropped me off at Walmart while he went to Home Depot to get some plywood to replace the plywood on top of the scaffolding which is old and worn.
I picked up a few groceries and my folic acid prescription. My "few groceries" amounted to around $200. I'm living the dream.
On the way home we stopped at Taco Bell for a chicken cantina soft taco something I normally like as does James. These had way too much sauce which really overpowered the flavor of the chicken.
Kat and Larry showed up a few minutes after we got home. They only work together. Each one of them charges $20 an hour and they work for five hours, which means they make $400 a day. They look like they have been down on their luck and their car is old and junky.
They don't have a bank account set up yet. They just moved here from Indiana and bought some cheap land in Concho. They love it here because they said the humidity is so high in Indiana it was difficult for them to breathe. I only met Kat. She was very friendly and she said they have a whole list of household chores they do, including windows.
I started a new book today: "A Proper Charade" by Esther Hatch. James is reading it too. He also worked in the yard today trying to rake up pine needles and pine cones. It is rather difficult because of the wind.
Kim is speaking in church on Sunday. I wish we could be there but we both teach up here on Sunday.

Exodus 24:10
And they saw the God of Israel: and there was under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in his clearness.
