John was up nice and early for his walk as there was a rummage sale down the street from us and we wanted to drop in to see if there was, once again, anything we couldn't live without.

While John was gone, I ate breakfast and got cleaned up.  Since the trouble began with my leg and hip, it takes me quite a bit longer to get ready in the mornings.  After John ate, we hopped in the golf cart and headed down the street to Dee and Jerry's.  John said there was quite a crowd waiting for the sale to start when he walked by their house.

Even though we were at the sale 45 minutes after it started, they were already pretty well cleaned out of stuff.  However, John did manage to find a golf cart cover and a little battery tester to use on our boat's battery.

The other day John met Jerry's neighbor, Mark, and they seemed to hit it off.  This morning they met up at the clubhouse and played 18 holes of golf.  I'm glad John has found someone else to play with since I can't go with him right now.  The guys plan to play again tomorrow afternoon.

With John gone a good part of the morning, I managed to get all the Christmas and gift cards ready to be mailed along with the cards for our church friends.

This afternoon we took a golf cart ride over to Unit 37.  On the way we stopped and visited a few minutes with Theresa B. and then ran into Bee and Nancy S. on the road.  This was the first we had seen them since they had been in Mexico for the previous month.  From there we stopped in at Betty and Harlan's and ended up staying awhile.  John and Betty are both wood carvers and he wanted to check to see if there would be carving on Monday as Wallace is away until after the holidays. We had bread dough going in the bread machine, so we had to head straight home from there.

We got the buns made along with a peach cobbler to take to tomorrow's potluck dinner after church.  The rest of the evening was spent watching a movie before calling it a day.  On a side note, the stronger pain killer is working much better--thank goodness!!
