Good news!

We are back in Bloomington - wet and rainy trip down to Mooresville for Charlie's check-up with Dr. Johannson. Everything is fine! Now that he's gotten a go-ahead from the doctor, he'll probably do very well.
Hurricane Ike is approaching the Gulf Coast and terrorizing Galveston, Houston and even coming up our way with tornadoes. Siren rang while we were eating Tim's very good chicken pizza as warning. We are awaiting some ice cream to top the peach pie Tim made.
I have brought my knitting, finally figured out how to put it together without being twisted into a helix.
Also brought my digital camera, need to plug it in and charge the battery. Wish I had brought it before so I could have taken pictures of Franklin - the visiting dog. Will take some photos while we are here.
Julie is busy with shop, new employee's first day alone in the shop so she'll be going to open up.
Ringo is getting silly from the storm - he is so freaked by changes in anything.
Tim has returned with a HUGE box of frozen waffles for Dad and himself. Charlie really got turned on by the frozen waffles while staying here.
This is a new experience, having the blog.
Worked couple hours yesterday to get materials ready for the 9/22 retreat. Can't figure Joan out, she seems to be on the ball, but certainly didn't sound like it on the phone.
Seeing her in person Monday when we go to SB for Charlie's Protime.
Tuesday is worship committee meeting at the church, Thursday is meeting for Leighton folks at Blackthorn Country Club in SB - going just to see the building. Wednesday is lunch for Best Years Church Group at LP restaurant. Monday after that is retreat. Will be interesting to see how many people show up.
Want to get some sewing done with my machine - perhaps some sort of bookmark as decoration on the table for retreat lunch.
Not much else going on.
