"Christmas is canceled, Apparently, YOU told Santa that you have been GOOD this year... He died laughing."
"Lying about my age is easier now since I sometimes forget what it is."
"Love the people God gave you because he will need them back one day."
Last Sunday we had the break the fast dinner at our cottage with the Jenkins, Terrys and Robisons. Had yummy baked chicken, baked potatoes, salad and cranberry cake for desert. Fun to get to know the new people who came in November.
Monday night we had a family home evening at the Pier (Restaurant) in Quincy. Very good food and nice atmosphere on the River (Mississippi)
After we served in the temple on Tuesday we went to Ft Madison for a doctor appointment for Kathy's hand. We waited 3 hours to see the surgeon. The surgeon had a cancelation Friday morning so we took it. He also scheduled the left hand for December 31, which will put her out of commission for a few weeks.
On Friday morning we went to Ft Madison for the surgery. The Ft Madison hospital was very accommodating and the surgery took less time than the Dr. appointment Tuesday. All went very well. Kathy had no pain. The next morning the left hand hurt and the right hand felt very good. The right hand had the surgery.
Dinner was brought in Friday night by the Wilson's, Temple missionaries. Rudi went to work both shifts and Kathy stayed home to rest.
Kathy is getting very bored not being able to do anything. Simple tasks like brushing teeth, combing hair, putting makeup on, are a real pain. Patience is not one of Kathy's virtues. Hopefully she does not kill me before she recovers. She always cooks when she is bored and she cannot cook now.
We went on a big walk around Nauvoo today to work out her frustrations. Tonight the Dallings have invited us to dinner. Rudi is off the hook again. Tomorrow morning the Terrys are fixing breakfast for us. Steve Terry makes wonderful apple pancakes with apple syrup. Can't wait! Kathy does not fix breakfast very often so this is a treat for me since breakfast is my favorite meal.
As you can see we are being taken care of.
We still love being here. Hope all your Christmas activities are going well.
We love and miss you all
Kathy and Rudi (Thanks Rudi for substituting today on the email). Not his favorite thing to do!

Kathy after she hit Rudi, or was it the surgery that caused this?
