     Darel did very well going to both Sunday School and church.  A very good service.  He rested in the afternoon to stay up to watch the game last night.  The game did not go well.

     After a nice visit with Tiffany and Rachael right after church Darel and i took a nap.  When I woke up  my sister Donna called to tell me Lynne's husband Tom was doing a little better.  He is in Togus with the flu.  After phone visiting with Donna for a long time I had a phone visit with a friend in NH.  As we were visiting I got a message from Tiffany that she got back to Presque Isle (collage) ok.  Which made us both glad, Tiffany had bad traveling all the way back.  Roads are still bad here, a two hour delay for school.

       I will do some shoveling first thing this morning around the doors.  Before it freezes I need to put the truck out and clean the garage floor.  Andrew is coming down right after work to clean along the greenhouse before it freezes too hard.  The nursery order still isn't finalized so i'll be working on that.

      Have a good day, Sally
