Woke up to emails asking for prayer---our church has a very active prayer chain, which is awfully sweet and dear. I'd gotten up with the dogs a little before seven, and sat outside with the chickens for a bit. So spring-like outside today, so I couldn't resist. Went back to bed and checked my email on my phone. Two men at church very ill, plus my uncle, who went into a nursing home on Thursday only to go to the ER last night. My goodness. Makes you cherish each and every minute.
Went out running around with fourth son. Lunch (his treat), a quick trip to Whole Foods which has recently remodeled. Bought a couple of bars of fresh shop---an almond and sandalwood/frankincense. Delicious. Then to Target (a ritual at our house), then to see my mom, then to the grocery store. So glad to be home.
I'm in bed after having put on some tomatoes for a spaghetti sauce. Smells good. The house is here and there, but mostly there. Not worried about the mess. We're having a cook-out of sorts tomorrow, because a couple of the kids want to watch the game. Oldest son is a fan, and he'll maybe come. Middle daughter wants him to come no matter, since it's just a treat to see him. Plus, free dinner!
Think I'll just take it easy tonight. Nothing pressing I can do anything about. Tomorrow the least one has her first day as an Acolyte, so that's exciting. I've done my chores, so can enjoy church and the two baby baptisms. Always adorable. Plus there's cake afterward. This is getting better by the minute. :)
