CFBC Sojourn 3rd Week

Thur.  After our coffee in bed, bible study and breakfast we went to  devo.  The girls could not work for the camp was being used this week end.  My group ran out of material and worked on the drive through the shed(top two pictures below).  We could not use the eating area so we took break and lunch at the craft building.  The director of CFBC had all of the Sojourners for hamburgers and hot dogs over fifty of us.   Afterward we played pegs and jokers at Lloud and Dottie's with Jenny and Floyd.  The girls won the first three game and the guys finally won one.


Fri. Linda spoiled me again and made home made waffles. I helped one of the sojourner with a new fridge.  It rained most of the day and the driveway that we made settled and some washed away.  Linda helped with cooking food for the workshop.  We finally got our new glasses, found a bed spread with sham's, and I got a new watch.  We think my watch is over 10 years old so I think I got my money worth.  The bed spread looks great with the sham's.

Sat. Linda made eggs, grits, toast with pepper jelly, and bacon.  I put some glue on the outside carpets that we got.  We think that they will stay in place.  We took them to the farmers market and the man cut down the carpet to fit the steps.  We got some honey and a gift for Dad's birthday on Thur.  When we got home I worked on the steps.

Sun.  As we were leaving for church we had to get all the ice off the window(out of 50 cars ours was the only one with ice).As church was ending a couple of sojourners left early and I noticed they were sad.  Linda went out and found he was having chest pains.  We went with them to the hospital and found he was having a heart attack.  The say it was the widow's maker(which is the main heart artery).  His left artery was 100% blocked.  God had a plan and everything fell into place because he was going home to take a nap.  He had surgery and two stents were used.  After they got set in there ICU room we left and went home.  After P.M. church we went back to see how he was doing(bottom right picture was sun set on the way).  Everything was OK.

Mon. After our devo our group got the pans on the roof(it looks great).  Linda group cleaned the snack and craft rooms.  At lunch I finished putting the carpet on the steps.  After dinner Linda went to get a cake for one of the sojourners was having a birthday.  After we had cake we taught a couple how to play pegs and jokers(guys 2 girls 1).

Tues. We finished the shed.  I was making wooden cars for kids when Linda was yelling for me.  She just found out that Carol had a stroke.  We got things ready and left for Atlanta.   Seven hours later we were with Carol in her hospital room.  They were giving her test to see how bad the stroke was.  We met Betty and Fred there and later the three us came to Carol's for the night.  Linda Spent the night with Carol.

Wed.  I got up and made coffee for Betty and Fred.  On our way to the hospital we stopped by Atlanta Bread and Starbucks. We spent the day with Carol.  We played cards while Carol rested.  Linda and I came to Carol's we had our showers then back to the Hospital.   Betty and Fred left for Az. Amanda and the kids came to visit Carol.  Later Josh and  Ashley came.  After everyone went home I left to go to Carol's and Linda stayed again with Carol.They have done and echo and other scans but we still are trying to find the cause.  They are thinking possibly a clotting issue and they have taken a lot of labs to see if they can determine that.
