February
Journaling
1. Our first grandchild, Benny is nine
today. I know it is cliché to say time flies but it really does. He is the
sweetest boy.
2. So busy; helping with the AGAPE Gala
seating plan and appetizers. Editing some papers for my husband and our pastor,
keeping up with my podcast and Bible class, learning amigurumi patterns, taking
a seminary course, running a household, going to medical appointments for me
and my mom, and helping out with the grandkids when I can. All while fitting in
a daily nap so I can keep going.
3. Ordered some safety eyes for my
amigurumi projects, along with some chenille soft yarn for plushies.
4. Church. Something’s brewing.
5. So busy. Someone sent a paper for me
to edit; it is 23 pages. I sell myself short and only charge $1 per page, but
it takes a long time, for some more than others if English isn’t their first
language.
6. Making the seating plan, almost done.
We have room for 66, we’re at 62 confirmed. Crocheted a little cow.
7. Crocheted a leggy froggy. So cute.
8. Our granddaughter is seven today. At
our Bible study today the ladies gave me a nice thank you card and $150 I was
so surprised. I went and bought yarn, because, you know, addictions. Doing the
Romans course from home tonight because Esther is sick.
9. Crocheted a medium sized plushie
turtle.
10. Crocheted a mini stingray.
11. Church. My husband preached in the
evening. Steak for dinner.
12. Writing day. Chicken noodle soup for
dinner.
13. Yesterday I made more amigurumi:
another manta ray, a mini dino, and a little duck. I also started an elephant.
14. Started a crab and made another
leggy froggy. Valentines Day. Prayer meeting.
15. Taught this morning on the song of
Moses and manna. We did our course online because of the snow. People in
Toronto have no clue how to drive in snow, speaking as a northern Ontario girl.
16. Our pain clinic appointment got
cancelled. The grandkids and parents came by on their way to a friend’s farm
for Family Day weekend. I made them dinner. I was excited to show the kids the
amigurumi toys I made. Of course they wanted them all.
17. Catch up day.
18. Church then out for lunch with a new
couple and our travel buddies. No evening service.
19. Our daughter returned from her two
week trip to Costa Rica engaged! It is Family Day.
20. Pain clinic. I made an elephant, a few
clams, another leggy froggy, a crab, a mini octopus, a donut animal-elephant and
a chick.
21. Prayer meeting. Going to H-town
tomorrow for an overnight.
22. Made a mini blue whale, a chameleon,
and a pink octopus.
23. Home from H-town. My cousin and his
wife are in town so we went out for dinner with them.
24. Quiet day at home preparing my
lesson for this week. Finished crocheting my grandson’s dinosaur. Started a
donut animal Scottish cow.
25. Church. There’s trouble brewing.
26. Want to book our trip in May. For my
60th birthday we will go to Curacao with our travel buddies John and
Esther to an all-inclusive resort.
27. Housekeeper, doctor’s appointment
with my mom.
28. Dental appointment with my mom; it’s
my first time at my new dentist, who goes to our church.
29. A meeting at church with the elders
and the people who are stirring up trouble. Praying for unity, repentance, and
reconciliation, but if not, there will need to be discipline.
