The Lions Club was having their annual breakfast at the Presbyterian church near us this morning, so we went and had a nice breakfast of pancakes, sausage, coffee and orange juice.

Then we stopped at the grocery and picked up a couple things we didn’t get at Wal-Mart yesterday.

I did my weekly laundry and some house cleaning and that was about all I could manage this morning so I took a little nap.

Sis fixed fried chicken livers and fried potatoes for lunch. We had mixed berries in vanilla pudding with it.

This afternoon we had a near catastrophe. I was standing on a 2-step stool, putting dishes on an upper shelf in the cupboard. I laid my hand on the middle shelf which was full of drinking glasses. It tipped and a bunch of glasses fell down onto the tile floor and shattered. I had no shoes on – just socks, so I yelled for Sis to bring me some shoes – and a broom. She had to sweep all around before I could even get down off the stool. Broken glass was everywhere – in the sink, all over the counter, stove, the steps of the stool, and down on the floor. It took a lot of cleaning and I’m not sure we didn’t miss some here and there. I don’t know how many glasses broke, but quite a few. I think we need to go back to using aluminum tumblers like the colored ones that were popular in the 1950’s.
