I am watching HOME TOWN and listening to the wind – and Mom’s windchimes. There is a possibility of nasty weather this evening and tonight. I am praying for the safety of those around me and those I love!

Last night I made a Pillsbury recipe I found on facebook. The directions were not complete so I found it on YouTube. I generally don’t experiment with new recipes – even old ones!!! – but I’ve been hungry for tacos. It actually turned out ok but next time I would make a few adjustments. I will heat up some for supper when I’m done with this post.

Today was a typical cleaning day but got done in good time – mostly because I only took a few short reading breaks and no TV breaks! And for lunch I heated up a small bowl of mashed potatoes so that didn’t take any time at all. Now the house is mostly clean and I will only have to do light sprucing up for the weekend. Tomorrow is our third ‘Fireside Chat’ at Compass Inn so that’s fun to look forward to.

Here are a few more random pictures of the decorations.

March 23 – Which chore did you dislike the most? “I pretended I hated washing the dishes but I really didn’t. I didn’t like to gather the eggs as sometimes a mean hen or rooster would chase me & peck my bare feet & legs.” When Mom’s dementia progressed, doing dishes was the thing she liked best! We always had her do them when we could. So it was an ‘old love’ coming out naturally!

Interesting – but a little too cold to camp out!

TOMORROW March 24 is:

I love chocolate covered raisins – haven’t had any since I left Smail’s. They used to have a big container in the conference room. Tomorrow is also 9 months until Christmas Eve – Right, Bud? Have a great day – God bless…
