It’s been a long time since I’ve written! Oh well…with holidays and traveling and such, there probably haven’t been too many people to read an entry. <\/p>\n
Last Friday, I went shopping for the foodstuffs I would need for dinners that night. I had to make a dinner for a couple because they’d had a baby, but I also had to have a dinner planned because my in-laws were coming that night. So I ran errands in the morning and cleaned in the afternoon. Then I made and dropped off the first meal, chatted and played with the baby for a few minutes, came home and worked on our meal, then ate when my in-laws arrived. It was fun to sit and chat with them. Saturday wasn’t too exciting…laundry and real grocery shopping. Eric worked a bit, then had to go to the church for the first of the 3 patriotic services of the weekend. We just vegged out when he got home. <\/p>\n
Sunday we had church, and I had a ministry meeting. Then we had dinner, relaxed for a bit and then packed to leave for the farm. We stayed there until yesterday afternoon. It rained most of the time we were there. We pretty much had the house to ourselves on Sunday because the farm folks were busy for a while, so just tried to keep the rain from pouring in the open windows (they don’t have air conditioning). Monday, my mother-in-law had to work, so we went with Alan over to hang some ceiling fans for Grandma Powell. Then we got back and Ryan (the other brother-in-law) had arrived to spend the holiday as well. We went out for pizza and bowling that night (but the bowling alley was closed), then came home. Tuesday we woke up to a steady downpour, so the cookout got moved inside (at least the eating part). Both sets of grandparents came for dinner, and then we all sat around and chatted for a while. Then we loaded up and came home and relaxed for the evening here. <\/p>\n
It’s good to be home again. I don’t really have much planned for the day. I’m out of the habit of thinking of things to do right now. So hopefully…I’ll think of something!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
