Sunday Matters

Right Now:

Happy Easter! Normally we’d be heading out to church right now, but our church had several Easter services to choose from so we attended service on Friday. Our friends were getting baptized too, so it was a VERY special service.

Today, The Girl has a friend coming over for brunch and then later we will enjoy a simple Easter dinner.

Easter - Cross

This Week:

This is Spring Break for my kids but The Hub is not able to take time off and The Teen leaves for his choir tour to San Diego on Wednesday so this is not a typical week. There is still one rehearsal for The Teen and three nights of track practice for The Girl to prepare for Saturday’s meet.

Reading:

My reading has been so slow because of the eye problem but I went to the doctor again and there is no permanent damage to the eye. It’s just taking a long time to heal because of all the computer work I’ve had to do for my job. So I have some new drops and after being off the computer all weekend, the eye feels good. Now, I just have to keep it that way.

Watching:

The Girl and I went to see Cinderella. It was a very sweet movie. I thought the acting was pretty good and the visuals were really lovely.

On the other side of the spectrum, Breaking Bad. I am on the very last episode of season five. It’s killing me.

Making:

This morning we are having bacon and cinnamon rolls and maybe some eggs for me. I love eggs over easy. I don’t have any of that good gluten free bread left though.

Later, I am making an apricot glazed ham, mashed potatoes, green beans with almonds, corn and biscuits.

Grateful for:

This day at home with the family.

Sunday Matters

This week was pretty good. Lots going on (as usual). Seems to be the norm with me but not a bad week overall. We had fun at the track meet yesterday. I worked the long jump pit for the first time. It was a lot of fun but it was HOT. I think The Girl struggled a little with the heat because her get up and go, got up and went. After a full day in the sun, it was nice to come home and rest a bit. Then, The Teen’s girlfriend came over for dinner. It was a good day.

Right Now:

Udi’s makes a new gluten-free bread and it’s delicious!! I am having it toasted with butter and marmalade and of course, there’s coffee too. We are about to head off to church and then from there, The Hub and Girl will be going to Six Flags. That means, that I have the afternoon to myself!

This Week:

Nothing out of the ordinary. Same old stuff for the kids with the addition of two doctor’s appointments and book club.

Reading:

This is becoming a thing but I am STILL reading The Book of Strange New Things. It’s really good and gives me lots to think about but it takes a lot of time to get through. So much so, that I forgot to read my book club pick, The Tempest. I gotta get on that for this week’s meeting.

Watching:

Tonight is all about the season finale of The Walking Dead. I feel as if we are about to lose a major character. I am thinking Glenn but I sure hope not.

Making:

Tacos!

Grateful for:

My free afternoon. I promise not to clean. I will most likely use my U-verse coupon to see Mockingjay, Part 1.

What are you up to today?

Chatting with friends about books and life…
