Easter Eve

Today was a good day!  I actually slept in a bit - got up about 9:00!  The boys went to a 10:30 movie and I got the cleaning bug!  I spent the next two hours cleaning the kitchen.  Cleaned out under the microwave stand and tossed all the plastic containers that didn't have lids and stuff like that.  It sure felt good to do it and get it done!

Daddy had to have some work in his kitchen done.  So he needs new floor and wallpaper.  He wanted a couple of us kids to go with him to Lowes to pick help pick it out.  Nikie and I met him there and I think he chose well!  He was supposed to have a plumber at the house at 3 today so I went back to his house for a bit to visit.  The plumber was a no show.

Andrew went to work and Michael went to poker.  So I went to JoAnns' with my 50% coupon and got a new punch for the cards I make for the card ministry at church.  They had their paper 5 sheets for $1.00 - so I got few dollars worth of paper too.  I stopped by Archivers to check out the workroom in the back.  I was told that they would let you work back there and use their tools as long as you bought your paper there.  But I found out tonight that is it a $15.00 fee to crop from 4-11.  Drat.  So I guess I won't be doing that on Saturday nights.  I've got something else I'm thinking about doing, I'll share more later.  

I did put an application in at Kaplan college to work reception from 5-8pm during the week and one Saturday a month.  That would make a great dent in my trip!  If nothing comes from this then I guess I go to the local places and put in applications.  I would rather works somewhere and make more on the hour than a local place.  But we will see.  I'm still looking!

Andrew was called into work tonight so we are going to go to Easter services tomorrow instead of tonight.  We know that the 9:30 & 11:00 services are going to be packed, so we are going to the 8:15 service.  Then we'll go to brunch with Papa at 10:30 at Cracker Barrel.  It's going to be weird to NOT cook Easter dinner.  Maybe I'll stop by the store and get a few things for a special dinner.  We'll see.

I'm watching "The Ten Commandments" right now.  Good movie - shame it is only on once a year!  Someone at church said they have it on VHS and will let me have it!  BONUS!  

I hope you have a wonderful Easter weekend.  May the true meaning of Easter penetrate your soul and draw you closer to Him.
