This week was pretty good. The weather was better. When you are stuck in the house, just looking out a window and seeing blue skies is comforting.

Right Now:

Online church. It will be so good once we can all actually be in the building together. I am meeting with my high school group later in Zoom, too.

For the rest of the afternoon, cleaning out the garage. It’s become a dumping zone for everything not wanted. I don’t mind cleaning and organizing. I find it oddly soothing.

This Week:

More. Of. The. Same. As you can imagine. Work, M-F.

Going to try to work a couple of books in. I am once again in the mood to read.

I want to paint something in my Bible. I’ve not tried it before but I just want something pretty on the inside cover. The only supplies I have are watercolors so if I use very little water perhaps it could work.

Reading:

I am reading Ruth Ware’s The Lying Game. I also have a copy of The Glass Hotel which is getting a lot of attention right now. I may read that one next. Okay, I lied. I just checked and I do not have that one. I seriously thought I did. Darn. Oh well, I have plenty of review copies to read and my friend has been asking me to read Small Great Things. Perhaps, now is the time.

Watching:

I watched the bonus Tiger King episode. Waste of time. My husband also wanted to watch the TMZ special and that was not horrible but provided no new info.

Turner Classic Movies has a bunch of good movies coming on soon so I recorded a few that I’ve always wanted to see like The Lady Vanishes.

New Things I’ve Tried:

I tried a new turkey meat loaf recipe because ground beef or sirloin is a rarity where I am. This meat loaf was delicious and easy and everyone ate it, even my kids who are not usually fans of meat loaf. I made a double batch so I could have some sandwiches later.

Grateful for:

• Every single worker on the front lines
• Better weather
• Kind gestures

Is everyone okay? Everyone healthy? I have some friends who have relatives who are sick or have been sick but they all seem to be improving. Thank you, God.
