Hello all! Well, today is the last day of April, and I was hoping to do a book review, but it probably won’t happen. So, here's what I've been up to...
Church
April 26 our church celebrated 90 years, and the entire month was spent in preparation for that. I scrapbooked every spare second I had, at least it felt like it! Sarah and I stayed up till 3:00 a.m. finishing up last minute preparation, but we did finish! On the 26, we had a lot of visitors and it was great meeting a lot of people I have never met before, and seeing some old friends. Yes, it was worth all the effort! (oh, and when I got home I completely crashed, and I am happy to report that Monday morning I felt well rested and re-energized :-) ) We also had a deaf choir with us that Sunday, and it was really neat to see.
Work
Has been going well, nothing too major to report on this front. I’m still doing down stocking and I am enjoying my time there. (my co-workers have noticed that I’m starting to relax and “warm up” to them a little more) I was able to introduce Mom to one of my favorite managers there this month. My schedule is starting to be more regular, and I can plan things better these days, which I love!
Blogging/Reading
Well, obviously I haven’t done a thing with blogging this month! Last week I did not even check or monitor the blog at all. I’m really hoping in May I can pick up the slack and do some reviews! I don’t believe I read a single book in April.
Other April Tidbits
We made some more trips to see my “niece” this month, and our Pastor’s wife just had her seventh baby earlier this month. So, I’m having fun seeing TWO babies at church on Sundays! :-) Dad preached the Sunday that our Pastor’s wife had her baby, and I’m hoping to do a blog post of that sermon in the future.
What’s next
Well, first of all, cleaning the disaster that was once called “my room” is on the top of my “to do list.” :-) Filled with scrapbooking supplies, pictures, and church history, it’s pretty much an exploded disaster. :-) May is looking pretty busy, Sarah has her college graduation, church is planning on some ladies events; a Saturday luncheon/shopping trip and a baby shower. And I’m hoping to get back to reading, blogging, and maybe try some new recipes!
Update on my Aunt
Thank you to those of you who are praying for my Aunt! This week we learned that her two chemo treatments have not been effective, and they will be trying a different type soon, this has some potentially harmful side effects, one of which is damage to her heart. Pray that this new treatment could work! Without going into specifics, some new developments in their financial situation also came up this week; continue to pray for them in the financial realm also.
I believe those are all the major highlights of the month. I'm incredibly glad to have April 26 over with and am looking forward to having more time on my hands to devote to
other things. :-)
Have a great week!
