Wednesday, October 31st - Halloween

Courtney went back to school on Monday and had a good day.  Her class went out in the community to do work Monday, but she mostly watched and was tired by the end of the day.  The doctor's orders were no heavy lifting until Wednesday, but said she could try bowling if she felt like it.  I picked her up from school and took her to her bowling match, but she said that she did not feel like bowling because she was tired and a little sore.  If you know Courtney at all, you know she has a high tolerance for pain and she loves bowling, so if she did not want to bowl, I knew she was really tired and/or sore.  The ironic thing is that Maplewood usually has 5 girls like we do, but they were missing one Monday also, so for the first time we had the same amount of girls as the team we were playing.  The girls did a great job, with Courtney cheering them on, and they won their first match of the year 15 - 6.  YEAH!!!!  We play them again in Hermitage next month, so hopefully we can win again with 5 vs 5 girls.  :-)

Courtney had a good day at school on Tuesday and we stopped by the HUMC Pumpkin Patch on the way home and got a couple of pumpkins.  I had a Career Transition Support Group meeting in Hendersonville, so they cleaned out one of the pumpkins and Jennifer carved a picture of Woody from Toy Story while I was gone.  Courtney was still a little sore last night, but not as much as Monday.

Courtney had another good day at school today (Wednesday) and did not complain of much soreness at all when she got home.  We put the pumpkins outside on the porch and awaited the few kids that we normally get.  We are in a rather small neighborhood with not many kids.  We ended up having less than 10 come by and Courtney was in bed at a normal time (9:10 PM).  Getting up at 5:30 every morning to have her at school by 6:50 has been hard getting used to.  If she feels up to it, we may try bowling tomorrow to make up for the games she missed Sunday night in our league.

Thank you for your continued prayer support.
