Hello From Rockville
I know, I'm a day late!

The day started with Bible study at 8:30, Mary and I are studying James followed with a short meeting at 10:00.  Mary Kay donated a beautiful Christmas tree to be used here in our building and we had to decide where we could store it after it is taken down. 

I called Harlan to encourage him to go to lunch, he did not answer the phone but one of the nurses answered as she was there to get him to go for lunch said he would not answer the phone, I'm sure he knew it was me and didn't want to eat..  He told me he didn't want to eat as he didn't feel good, his stomach hurt, I suggested that he at least go down and drink his milk and many times when he goes to eat he will eat his meal even if he says he's not hungry.   When I got there he had an empty glass that had a bit of milk in it so at least he did have something to eat. May times I suggest that he check his dessert out and skip the rest, the kids remind me that when they were little I never allowed to them to skip the food and go right to their dessert, oh how things have changed.  Harlan's treat consisted of a hot fudge sundae at the Park Diner and coffee for me.

After treat time we went back to the VA for Harlan's meds and TV, I left at 5:00 to meet Denese and Cheryl at Grizzlies for "Girl's Night Out" we had a great time and Cheryl looks fantastic, not a wrinkle, not a grey hair and so trim, well enough about her!  We had a great time and wonderful food and we need to do that again.  After all the eating and chit-chat Denese and I went to Target to pick up a few thing then home to listen to Bush's interview only to realize we missed most of it, we were an hour late as the advertised time was 7:00 Eastern time not Central time.

I had a fantastic day with Harlan, Cheryl and Denese........Fran
