It's Raining

It's raining!!!  We have been in a drought for so so long now but we have gotten some moisture in the past few weeks.  Well Easter Sunday morning we woke up about 5:30 am to rain and hail.  No damage but a lot of rain.  The rest of Easter Sunday and Monday were beautiful days and then the rain started in again Monday night and it hasn't stopped.  It's Tuesday evening now and it is still coming down.  We are supposed to have it until Thursday morning.  They are predicting upwards of 3" total which is awesome.  With a few more of these types of rain between now and the end of June the drought may actually be broken.  I sure hope so. 

We enjoyed Sunday just being lazy and spent a good deal of it outside.  The Easter service at First Baptist Church in Sulphur, OK was very nice as well.  They have a great preacher there.  I fixed dinner for us late afternoon and then we headed back to Blanchard in our RV. 

On Monday Bailey and I headed to OU Medical Center to visit inpatients for a few hours.  The patients and staff love the dog visits.  We love doing this but it is very tiring for both of us.  We visit for 3-4 hours and then Bailey comes home and crashes.  She is so well behaved during the visits. 

We have been running our DivorceCare ministry for the past several weeks on Monday nights at our church.  We have two more weeks left in the program and then get a break through the summer.  We do this 13-week program in the Fall and then again starting in January.  It's a great ministry and has helped hundreds of people.  We hope to continue this ministry when we are on the road full-time by either helping churches start it or by giving their facilitators a break and doing a 13-week session for them.

John goes on call for his job on Wednesday so we have to stay in the area for a week in case he gets any  patient calls at night or on the weekend.  So my big plan for the weekend is to cl
