This is Sunday evening about 5:30. It has been a good day of rest and I needed it very much. I have been mildly busy the last few days and it caught up with me! Our day out on Friday shopping was a good one. We didn't do anything unusual . . . . just getting out of our usual routine for a bit so we are ready to get back. On Saturday I went to the folks and cleaned for them. I do this every so often. Dad keeps up fairly well and I go in every two to three weeks to do a bit deeper cleaning. It is always a good visiting time, too. I have a fairly busy schedule this week. There is some down time here and there so I should have a good week. I was planning a Christmas party for our Sunday school class and today I found they need a bigger place as they are having the children, too. I am OK with that . . . . I was just trying to give the previous hostess a break. I am going to host an afternoon Tea for about 8 ladies. This will be the 15th of Dec. In the meantime this Thursday Gina and I will meet, again, to continue quilting time. I also meet twice a month with a few gals for crafting. We just bring whatever we are working on and visit. We meet this Wed. afternoon. I will go for now and catch you later! Judith
