The one thing I did do was run to the store to buy the items for lunch on Sunday. There is another Elders' Meeting and I volunteered to bring lunch. I am making ground turkey and pasta shells in tomato sauce on Saturday night and putting it in the crockpot. Then on Sunday all I have to do is heat it up while the church service is going on.
When we got home last night, Joe decided to go to his book club. I dropped him off and then went to Payless to get some new shoes. I took a long time and must have tried on every pair in my size. My left foot is swollen and painful from my arthritis, so I always have to buy the shoes for that foot. It's hard to find something that doesn't hurt. But I found two pair that were perfect. One is a brown leather oxford. Really cute. And the other is a black and white plaid canvas pull on with a sneaker-type sole. It is not what I would ordinarily buy, but I have been wearing them today and they feel like bedroom slippers. Really comfy.
So for your Friday View today I am using some pictures from the son of one of my friends. My friend, Carole, used to live in Philly. In fact her father was my pastor at one point and she was one of my Sunday School students. She now lives in Elizabethtown, Kentucky. Her oldest son, Stephen, also grew up in Philly. He brought his wife and son here to visit family and see his old neighborhood. He took magnificent pictures and I asked if I could use them, giving him credit, of course. He said yes. So here is the city of Philadelphia as seen through the lens of Stephen Kruckow.

LOVE your Friday Views!!! And good for you in finding comfy shoes!! I am all about COMFORT these days. In clothes - if it's not comfortable enough to sleep in - I don't want to wear it! And shoes should be like slippers on my feet!!! Happy Friday to you and Joe!!
