Saturday we slept in a little and then took a run to the post office and to Krogers and then picked up lunch. We spent the rest of the day at home. Lucy and I took a long walk in the neighborhood and then we were back home for the rest of the day and watched some TV and did a bunch of reading.
I'm thinking maybe she was a little tired after the walk. lol |
Sunday morning we were up early and got cleaned up and headed to Walmart first. We needed some hamburger and I needed to get some buttons. I've been asked to help make some of the straps for the face masks. My sister's church is making masks and they asked her to make some of the straps as the masks are hurting the workers' ears and she recruited me to help. They are really easy and kind of fun to make and I'm thankful for the chance to get to help.
some completed and some in progress |
After that we picked up some lunch and a Starbucks and went home for the rest of the day. I heard from both girls just briefly and hubby and I had a good day at home. I did some reading and while we watched TV I worked on the mask straps.
So that was my Easter weekend. It was different than normal, but Jesus is still risen from the grave and this quarantine stuff does not change that truth. It all comes down to a choice and I choose to have Joy!

I was so happy to see your comment on my first post in a long while. I'm hoping to be back - we'll see! I love your background, with the pink flowers and "wooden" boards. It looks like you had a wonderful family. I was actually able to get to see my daughter and grand kiddos - it made this Nannie's heart so very happy! HOPE you have a great day, sweet Lady!
ReplyDeleteIt was so good seeing you back on your blog. I know I've seen you on Instagram, but I miss you on your blog. Hope you will be coming back. Take care.
DeleteSo happy that you can make the straps for the face masks...what a blessing for them to have that. You are very talented. Also glad your hubby was able to live stream his service to the congregation. That was a blessing for them I am sure. God is good, and we are blessed to be His children! Amen?
ReplyDeleteAmen!!!
DeleteSounds like it was a nice relaxing weekend with time to focus on what's really important about Easter. I'm sure your hubby's sermon was wonderful!
ReplyDeleteIt really was a nice weekend.
DeleteThat is nice that you are making those straps. I have been busy making mask and mine have the ties. My niece asked me to make her a few more since she is a nurse. We saw church on FB too. I am glad your hubby did well on his FB sermon.
ReplyDeleteSo I wanna see how those straps work & come together... interesting!!! I was wondering about knitting some & putting a backing on them - some sort of breathable cotton
ReplyDeleteI loved your post - and how nice you are making straps for the health care workers - I bet they do hurt.
ReplyDeleteHE IS RISEN IN DEED and no one can cancel that!!!!!!!!!!!!
