NOTES
Today has been a cloudy day with a little light rain at times. High temperature today was 37 degrees. I went outside this morning between 7:00 and 8:00 a.m. and my van windshield was covered with ice. I decided to not attend church but it did warm up later enough to melt the ice. I have been resting and I watched a little television, read the paper, read the Reflecting God devotions for today, worked a crossword puzzle and of course I had lunch at home. Thanks to everyone for your notes and thanks for reading the Good Things.
The cats are fine. They have been inside most of the day. Rascal is the only one in the den with me at present, however, I have seen all of them this evening.
Have a nice Monday,
Everett.

At 4:30 p.m. I went back to the post office to mail a couple of bills. I then went to Country Mart for a couple of items.
