Oh, my! What a day!

Oh, my! What a day!

We woke up to more snow. We needed to get to church because Seth was scheduled to be baptized after church. Paul didn’t want to get up but he did and he went out and plowed. The other day he slipped on ice in the driveway and fell down and his ankle, knee and back were bothering him. Today when he was about done, he slipped getting out of the truck and fell. He was hurting but he got ready for church and got in the van and we left. When we got to church, we were extremely late but at least we were there. Paul said that the bench was killing him which I can imagine it was because they’ve killed me in the past (I’m actually a ghost, you know).

When Sacrament meeting was over, Elders Sanchez and Nash and Brother Peterman gave Paul a blessing. Seth got interviewed by the bishop. Paul decided that he wouldn’t be able to baptize Seth because it would be too much fun getting into the font. After Sunday School, he decided that he might ought to get to the hospital so I took him home to get his insurance card, meds, and a book to read. Then I dropped him off at the hospital and returned to church just in time to make copies of the program.

Nick got to baptize Seth since Paul couldn’t. We had him baptized but decided to have him confirmed next week so that Paul can do it. Nick did a good job. He had to do it twice because the first time his left hand didn’t go under but the second time it was all good. Everything turned out rather well.

Paul is home now. He has a fractured ankle and possibly his knee and tail bone. No wonder the bench at church hurt.

Joanna sold her scooter this afternoon. A guy wanted to come look at it this afternoon at 3:00 and he decided to get it so she is scooterless. She wants to go look at a Jeep in Connecticut Thursday. We’ll see how that goes. If she were to get it, she’d have to learn how to drive a stick before then. I’m just not sure that would work too well.

We were going to have Amena’s birthday party after we got home but she and Cedric were behaving so poorly on the way home that I decided that we weren’t so we didn’t. Seth thought that we should have pizza anyway since he was baptized today so we did do that and had cake as well. No ice-cream cake though. And no candles. And no Happy Birthday.

And that’s about all you are going to get tonight. I hope you have had a wonderful day.
