We started off the day with our usual morning walk.  Since it's the weekend, the traffic was much lighter--no school bus on the road and our neighbor didn't go to work.  

After eating breakfast, John and I got busy on our separate projects.  Before he got started on the lawn, he removed towel holders and light plates in the bathroom.  Matt came over and helped remove the bathroom sink and counter top and then I got busy with the paintbrush.  The ceiling and walls all got one coat and then I called it a day since I didn't get started painting until later in the morning.  John got his lawn under control and took time to rest his back.


While Matt was here also gave us an update on Sam's checkup following his finger surgery of last week.  The doctor thought the fingers were looking good, but Sam's still not out of the woods concerning amputation of the digit that was almost severed.  That finger is not doing as well as the one that was crushed.  He sees the doctor again next week, and more will be known at that time.  Please keep him in your prayers.  Thanks.
