Evening Y'all! Everybody else is in bed, have been for a while. I just finished a paper so I figured I'd give you an update from this evening. I got here around 5 and Grandma and Grandpa were sleeping so I went and woke them up. I told them it was either let me help them or the two bossy ones would come get them up! They thought that was pretty funny. Grandma seemed pleased to see me, but she was ecstatic after I told her I brought popcorn. She was practically running to the kitchen telling Grandpa to "Get up honey, it's time for dinner!" Grandma ate really good: sweet potatoes, peas, bread and applebutter, and turnips or parsnips, I'm not sure which. Grandpa picked at his and then had some coconut pudding. After dinner they migrated to the couch and I took them some water and a bowl of popcorn. It was mainly for Grandma (Grandpa doesn't like the hulls), but he had several handfulls! Grandpa read the paper and Grandma waited as long as she could before she asked/told him it was time for bed a little after 7:00, and I haven't heard a peep out of them since!
Danny took the curtain that was going into their bedroom and put it in the doorway going from the living room so they could have a little more privacy and a little more room. There is no door on the old bathroom. Trish and Mom assured Grandpa that this would make it easier for him to maneuver his walker, but he didn't seem too impressed. I think he will get used to it! Danny also rigged the oxygen tube to where it is out of the way and doesn't have to be moved. It's right beside the bed where Grandpa needs it. All in all, it was a pretty eventful evening around here.
Greenbrier County is under a winter weather advisory until 6:00 am tomorrow morning. They said to expect 5-6 inches in the mountains, at this point I wouldn't know what else to expect!
Congratulations Amy and Greg and Clara on your baby BOY!
And is Marleigh here yet?
