We walked in to Burger King and there sat a table full of young men from our church. One of them was Ryan, now in his early 20's, but who Tracy, Brianna and I knew from Atlanta when he was a little boy. Remember those piles and piles of pictures we had looked through with Heather??? Well, we had found one of Ryan with Brianna when she was about a year and a half old, and we had taken it with us to church in order to give it to Ryan's mom, Michele.
Tracy hadn't seen Ryan in about as long as she hadn't seen Heather...
BUT, Tracy - funny as always - went up to the table of young men, and extended her hand with the picture in it and said "Excuse me, we're looking for some lost children have you seen them?" Ryan takes the picture and looks at it, and realizes it's HIM and Brianna 10 years ago! He starts looking around and then sees David, Brianna and I near the counter. Tracy had grace on him and told him who she was, and then he remembered her. It was a good laugh!
Then on to church we went, and then on to lunch and back home so David could go out of town for business until Tuesday night. =( BUT, I was grateful for time with Tracy, so I tried to be a brave soldier!
Sometime Sunday night when we were about to launch our plan to watch some of our favorite movies day and night while David was gone, we decided to paint the living/dining room. I already had the paint, so why not???
Yeah, it was about 10pm when we started, and about 3am when we stopped. Did I mention 2 of the walls are textured and are a BEAR to paint??? Here we are sometime in the middle of the night...priming the walls...


Maverick was there for moral support!
He's a little bigger now than when we took him to Disney back at Father's Day weekend...lolWe managed to get the 2 bumpy walls primed before going to bed...barely!
OH, I almost forgot...Sometime around 1:30ish we started to smell smoke! It seemed to be coming from the downstairs air conditioner. You know, the one that cools The Tracy Room!
SO, we had to turn the unit off...but God was kind and kept the outside temperature at a reasonable level that Tracy didn't seem bothered by it.
EXCEPT when she went to bed after 3am and kept hearing something turning on and off and thought it was the unit! She was up until close to 5 trying to figure out what it was and if it was dangerous!
It turned out to be our water pump...we have some kind of filter system and it kept going on and off. It was a long night, and an early morning!
