So far – thankfully – no April Fools pranks. Rick Kozar was the KING of pranks, regardless of what day it was! It’s been quiet.
After changing bedsheets, I went immediately into mixing up bread dough. By the time I finished cleaning up the kitchen and doing laundry and having a shower and a cup of tea I headed to River Hill at 11:15am.
Kathy and Paul’s church was having a craft and vendor show and I mentioned trying to attend. I had never driven there by myself and the last several miles were rather obscure, but I made it down (and back) without a hitch.
The activities room was full of vendor tables and they were all displayed with wonderful crafts. It was hard not to get caught up in everything! I bought tickets for the Chinese Auction baskets, and just got a call that I won two baskets! One I had chosen because it was so cute for a little girl and Kath mentioned having her eye on it for Millie – so I thought I’d up the chances. I won it so I can give it to Kath for Millie.
The other one that I got was a huge Easter wreath – it was the one that I wanted above all else, and put almost all my tickets in that one. So I’m very excited about winning that. I’ll post a picture next week when I get it. I made just a few small purchases: A carrot and a bunny made from clothes pins, and knitted eggs!
When I was leaving a family came with a German Shepherd Puppy – It was so cute and soft – but it will get to be over 80 pounds!
When I drove down, I took Route 70 and Route 51 and cut across. On the way home I picked up Route 136. It was a more scenic route (including a ‘close call’ with three deer on the road!). BUT — In West Newton I got stuck on the bridge for 10 minutes waiting for a very long train to go right through the center of town!
Today I received two Easter cards – One from Joelyn and one from my sister. She sent me a coaster with a lamb, so I put it near the lamb that mom made about 20 years ago!
(Thank you, sweet sister!)
It’s still raining – there was a lot of thunder on and off today. When I left River Hill it was sunny and over 70* – but by the time I got home it was dark, cloudy, and very windy. No outside work today!
Tomorrow is the Community Easter Egg hunt at Hempfield Church. If you are local be sure to stop in.

Tomorrow April 2nd is:
National Education and Sharing Day; National Ferret Day; World Autism Awareness Day; Geologists Day; National Peanut Butter and Jelly Day; National Reconciliation Day; Palm Sunday.
NO PB&J for me — but tomorrow’s Palm Sunday is a good plan. God bless, and take time to consider, every day for the next week, the path that Jesus walked.
