Westboro Baptist Church was planning to protest North Central College's screening of the movie, 'Anatomy of Hate'. The students planned a counter-protest & celebration of the power of love. Westboro didn't show up, but the students were awesome!

I was at another doctor appointment today. Nothing seriously wrong with me, I just tend to do this...get all of my appointments at the same time of year and then I'm done for a while. I had an eye doctor appointment today at 10:30...I was completely amazed that I was called into an examination room so quickly (Less than 10 minutes).

Maureen October 19, 2010

Playing a new card game that we got for Jim for a very, very early birthday present. Annie & Jim have been playing all kinds of board games, card games & role-playing games, lately.

I have been having numbness/tingling in my legs and arms. The doctor ordered and MRI to check out my lower back. I've never had one before, I had to keep telling myself that it would be over soon and that I'd be ok.

Allison spent the afternoon and evening here at home, tonight. It was nice having her around again.

It was a nice day to play outside

Margie October 16, 2010

Put some new (used) carpet in the playroom. It's still kind of bumpy so I did not attach it yet, hoping that it will flatten out after a while. When I put the furniture back, I rearranged everything. Now I get lost every time that I go down there.

Marla October 16, 2010

We had a campfire at Colleen's house tonight.

I went on a bike ride today and past this frog. He was just sitting on the bike path. I turned around to get a picture of him and he was still sitting there. I was sure that he'd hop away before I could take the picture, but he didn't.

Don't you just hate waiting in the doctor's office? I had an appointment at 10:30, they told me to be there at 10:15 to fill out paperwork (new doctor). So, I got there at 10:15. Here my watch shows the time as I was waiting for the doctor to come into the examination room.
