Lunch then spent the afternoon dragging summer clothes down from upstairs, Packing winter clothes away and dragging them upstairs. Took about all afternoon before we got all mine and Kathy’s clothes switched around. Had dinner then usual evening routine.


Now the particulars:

I guess the big thing this week was the storms that rolled through. They were expecting things to get rough starting around 3PM Friday afternoon so a lot of the schools had an early dismissal. Kathy had to go up and pick up our grand kids at there school and take them home. By the time she got home the sun was out and it was beautiful. However, later Friday evening it started getting rather bad. Had an inch of rain in about an hour. It was actually two rain events. Then early Saturday morning the front moved through and we got hit was a lot of wind. Lots of trees down, power outages. There are reports of tornadoes touching down in several areas of Kentucky. One county had over a dozen fatalities as a result of the storm. We made out fine however. A lot of leaves and sticks but nothing major. Thanks to all the folks that reached out to make sure we were safe.

Tuesday was a busy day. Ran up to get my blood drawn for the thyroid hormone levels. The usual thing. Then I ran over to Shelbyville for PT. Home and picked up Kathy and over to Cracker Barrel in Shelbyville for lunch. Back to Shelbyville in the evening for a HAM club meeting. Had we decided to live in Shelbyville we would have saved a lot of gas Tuesday. lol

I worked full days Monday and Thursday this week. No courts this week.

Saturday we spent all day bringing summer clothes down for the storage area over the garage and putting them in our closets. Then taking the winter clothes back up. I think I made over a dozen trips up and down the stairs. I think that will be my exercise for this week.

PT is coming along slow. I’m making slow progress but I should be in shape to make it through fire arms training in June. If not, at least I made a good effort to do it. Time will tell.

OK, that’s about all the excitement for this week. As always, hope this finds you safe and healthy. Stay that way and I’ll blog at you again next week.
