It's a Rainy Day

I can't believe it has been a week and I have not blogged. I have been working hard to get the windows out doors painted and when I come in I am just so tired.
I scraped the last window on the front of the house, and went in to get the paint and brushes and the phone rang and my oldest son said he was on the way up to our home. They stopped to look at a new dog so they would be here later, and they had lunch. I then started to make lunch for John and I, and the phone rang again. The leader of our TOPS group called to inform me that a member of our group was killed in a car accident yesterday. There was a picture of the accident in the paper but no names were given out but a friend also a member knew and called our leader. I just finished the phone call and the rains came. I thought this really fits the way I feel.

To brighten the day my son and his family arrived. They liked the dog but the dog chews toys and that may be a problem with Lori's eye sight. They are still thinking. My son carried out a bookcase to the garage to put the buildings from Pigeon Falls on for the winter. He helped me put the leg on the couch. We worked on putting the lights in on the floresent light fixture in the basement, My other son had taken down the old burnt out lights and I had bought new ones but I was just too short to but them in even standing on the ladder. We put the new lights in. They still did not light. Then one side lit It must be the fuses. Then came the question which fuse was working and which wasn't . We moved them around one light never lit but the other one lit up brightly. My son thinks that it would be better to buy a new light. We went out to eat and the food was good.
