I'm getting better with my walking. Today, the physical therapist made me walk with just one crutch. I did real well. When I'm home by myself, I'll walk using both crutches. My new goal is to be able to walk with only one crutch and to do a few more things for myself. Maybe I can reach this goal by the weekend.

Last night while I was trying to do some work on our store records, the doorbell rang. My mother went to the door and there was a woman there that she did not know. The woman immediately introduced herself and said that she was here to see me. It was an old friend from elementary school and high school. We exchange Christmas cards, and this year I used some return address labels that had my mother's address on them. She was on her way to Huntsville from Atlanta and decided to look me up. It was nice in a weird sort of way. She stayed for about an hour and we had a nice visit. She lives in San Antonio, but was in Atlanta and Huntsville checking on the houses that she inherited when her mother passed away. What got us was that she doesn't have a cell phone. We couldn't believe that she was travelling from Atlanta to San Antonio without a cell phone. I wouldn't feel safe.

This weekend is supposed to be cold here. It is supposed to get down to 15 one night. Brrrr! They are also predicting sleet and snow. I'm glad that I don't have to go to work next week. I would hate for my mother to take me back in unpredictable weather. This weekend will be a good weekend to lay around and read.

I hope everyone enjoys the remainder of the day.
