TUESDAY'S ACCOMPLISHMENTS

Hmmm....must be something! ::snort::

Sent out a co-op newsletter.

Fielded phone calls.

Did a bit of school.

The pillar candle is not going to work for our Advent countdown. I want to burn it 20 - 30 min a day NOT 6 hours a day!!!!! ::snort:: Also - it's burning down the middle and not a nice total burn...if that makes any sense.

Took a nap.

Led a Bible Study. DID decide to have the Chapel Ladies tea here at the house instead of at the Fellowship Hall.

Cy finished his Christmas shopping and much of mine.

Bought milk on the way home from Bible Study.....

Decided to go with a 1/2 way party for tomorrow.....young children are in bed. Baking a chocolate cake that I will cut in 1/2 and decorate. I bought some doughnuts (lusted after but not allowed in our home these days....) they'll each get 1/2. I bought some paper plates and napkins which will be cut in 1/2. Send any ideas this way....We did talk about how this is the "1/2 way week" because we really don't have a DATE for Mike to return.....

Your pillar candle burning down to hollow the middle, but not the sides is normal if it can't be burned the recommended hours/diameter. They're good value if you're home all day to watch it, but really, what mom has that kind of time! lol

Your plans for your party sound fun! Celebrating w/you and praying for all!

sis: OH how I would love to be there for your "TEA". Haven't been to one for over a year now. We all keep talking (friends) but just never get it done. :) :(

Proud of you and all the things you are doing to help the kids and YOU get thru the absence of M' and even find time for fun and enjoyment.

Are you sure we are the ones who raised such an awesome person? :)

Love/Prayers

Your 1/2 party sounds like fun. I'm glad you're 1/2 way there already! I'm also glad you're all feeling better:)

Hugs,
Jen in Az.

Isn't it nice to have kids old enough to help with the shopping! I LOVE that dd1 is able to shop for me.
