On Friday, hubby and I went out to lunch and I ran into Walmart to get a few things and then we stayed home the rest of the day.
Saturday we grabbed some Chinese food at a new to us restaurant and took it home with plans to be at home the rest of the day. I was scrolling FB Saturday afternoon and found out that our town's Ladies Night Out was from 4p-9p that day. I called my sister and we went down and had so much fun. We'd never been there for Ladies Night Out. I think they have it several different times during the year. Most of the downtown shops are open and then they have some food samples and drinks in the some of the storms. You get a card and if you go to 15 places and get your card stamped, you are entered into a chance to win a really nice gift. Of course, we had to do that. We bought a couple things, but mostly just walked and looked and just had a great time being together. We ended up staying a lot longer than we anticipated. Here are a couple photos I took.

Of course, Sunday we had church and a nap in the afternoon between services. The pre-recorded sermon is below.
Then that evening I got a call from my sister that she had her husband at the local emergency room and they said he had a heart attack and they were taking him to their hospital and straight into the cath lab to have a procedure done. She called to see if I would go with her as she didn't want to drive by herself. It's about a 30 minute drive. So I met her at the ER and went with her. He came through the procedure and was resting comfortably when we left around 1:00am. I don't have an update yet, but she's at the hospital and will let me know when she finds out more about what's going on. I'm heading out in a minute to go let her dog out for a bit. If you pray, I know he would appreciate you praying for him.
So, that is my weekend. How was yours?

Wow, your weekend was a whirlwind too, and all good until that phone call. I am glad you are close enough to your sister to be able to go and help her like that. That is a real blessing. And yes, I will pray for your brother in law. Strange how things happen so quickly that can change our lives completely. But God is in control, and I know He is with your sister and her hubby. Thank you for sharing this with us. Praying.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your prayers. That means so much to them and to me.
DeleteI don't think our tri-communities have anything like "Ladies Night Out" ... but what a great idea! That little bookstore looks so inviting; just the sort of place I'd enjoy losing track of time.
ReplyDeletePraying NOW for your brother-in-law and sis.
Oh boy; prayers for your sister and her husband. That sounds so scary!
