Easter Sunday

There are sometimes when you go to church and it is like the message that your pastor is speaking is just for you. I know that it isn't, but it sure feels that way.

I have been a little sad since that brouhaha with the woman at church. I've been avoiding going, even on Sundays because I have felt so guilty. I know that I didn't mean to offend the woman, but I was feeling guilty about abandoning the rest of my group of ladies. I haave been heavy hearted about it.

But Pastor was talking about Christians who have turned away or used-to-believers. I have and always do love the LORD. But I have wandered away from my church. I let my faith fade because of a rude woman and that should never be. But, I also KNOW that it is Easter and Easter means renewal and redemption. And I know that I need to remember that I am redeemed. Everything else is really immaterial. God is good!

I have been practicing with my camera. It is a beauty. I bought the Nikon 5000D book for dummies. I want to take a class in photography this spring or summer. I also bought a book that is really helping me to plan out what I want my goals to be in the art realm. It is called The Artistic Mother.

This weeks list of mades...

I made a cloth cover for my stenographers notebook. I will try to figure out how to add pictures and download to the blog with the new camera.

I am making potato cheese soup in the crockpot (as we speak) with ham from Easter. Also made the whole big Easter dinner and cinnamon rolls for breakfast.

Thrifted a ton of vintage sheets from a thrift store that was going out of business. Cute stuff. Also got a few tea towels. I am eagerly awaiting my Crafty things to do with tea towels book that I ordered on Amazon. I also bought a beautiful little table that I put in a nook that we have in our formal dining room. Got an incomplete set of blue and white china with the sweetest little teacups for 5 bucks.

I changed my whole classroom around on break. It was time for a change. I love what it looks like now. My kids came with me. It was nice to have their help. I can't wait to see my students reactions tomorrow.

Hope you have the happiest of Easters. Remember, HE is RISEN, and that makes everything all right...
