long days continued

and i write again after another long day (i hope you got the idea that i've had a lot of long days this week)

and today was a fantastic day!

began with quilting. i love the ladies who quilt thursday mornings. so enjoyable to chat and do good work.

then i left halfway through quilting to report to the seniors center that is the hub for delivering meals on wheels. and i had a blast driving around with roy and bringing food to people in the community.

after that i ate at the seniors center with some of the others who delivered meals. and no, i was not the youngest there. someone brought their grandson (or perhaps great-grandson).

then i had a brief meeting to get a schedule for next week when i will be acting as a "soccer mom" for four kids. and found out that i would be getting kids up no later than 6:30 am each day. uff da

and i ran home to finish cleaning my house. everything organized except my bedroom.

bell choir practice went well. two songs for this sunday. and one really challenging piece that is likely to be played for easter. and definitely for the concert this summer

then drove home and got ready for the women's circle that met at my house from 8-10 pm.

which was an awesome time. i loved getting to talk with the five women who showed up. sharing life stories and reflections upon how the Holy Spirit is active

so after a 13-hour (technically turned out to be a little more than 13 hours) workday, i sat down on my couch to relax.

and checked my messages to hear that i won a raffle (proceeds to help habitat for humanity). which is awesome. so i guess i need to head over to the habitat for humanity office to claim my prize.

i can't remember the last time i won a raffle, so i'm pretty stoked about this!

such a great day. and tomorrow is my day off. awesome!
