Instead of getting a $2.80 something alarm I decided to lash out, and paid $12.87 for something I hope will last a bit longer than the five minutes I had the last one. Decided that on my next trip home I will buy one that will still be made in China, but a much better quality than the Chinese imports sold here.
The Kiwanis speaker was quite interesting, talking about her job as a nurse at the Early Learning Childhood Centre, a kindergarten in a lovely modern building, and said to be the best in Oklahoma.
On Thursdays in Lent different churches in the town host a Lenten lunch, generally soup and sandwiches, and a small group from Emmanuel attended the first one.
Friday morning I was at the hospital, there is still only me and Chaplain Bill there on Fridays. and I went round both floors, and most of the rooms were occupied. There seems to be a lot of patients in with pneumonia.
Today, after my shopping trip, I was mostly engrossed in a good book on my C-Nook, so that is all I have really been up to the last couple of days.
The weather has been intensely cold today, but looks as if it is going to get better.
Monday and Tuesday look quite nice.
Tonight the clocks go forward (unless you live in Arizona) O Joy, O Rapture, I've been looking forward to that for so long. I just hate dark evenings. I have even been toying with the idea of taking a little trip, with a longer evening I should manage it in a day. To the Heritage Centre of the Cherokee Nation; it is a couple of hours away, two and a half actually. Perhaps a bit more for me because I keep stopping to stretch my legs. It is over in the north east of the state, north of Tulsa. I'll see how it goes.
And the latest on the supermarket stands....
