THE HUNT CONTINUES

We did School. 
I worked out.

I made 4.5 gallons of spaghetti sauce. I'll freeze most of it, and we'll have it for all sorts of yummy meals....spaghetti, baked penne, manicotti, lasagna... Ok that one line, "I made spaghetti sauce" doesn't do this justice....I chopped and diced 12 onions, I opened 16 cans of tomato paste....::snort::

We went on a HUNT - a walk, but we had to find THORNS and a STONE for our Lenten wreath. I was drawing blanks at the store...when I remembered we LIVE in WEST TEXAS.

MESQUITE IS EVERYWHERE!

Ah Thorns....
Nolan thorns

And a Stone!

We should have skipped the stores and gone for a walk earlier in the day!
I bought Stacia a few dresses for $5.94 at Walmart.

That's about all we did today.

POSTED IN RESPONSE TO YOUR QUESTION:

yes, I enjoy it and yes, it stresses me out (sometimes)! When it stresses me out then I just take a break.

You get to meet some new bloggy friends and if they stay around on your blog long enough, you might just be able to share your faith with them via your other posts.

There are some that I think really stretch you spiritually also because they are spiritual in nature they cause you to dwell on those things as you prepare.

Great Wreath! Now I will get busy on mine.
I am going to get Seder Meal tickets for the event on Palm Sunday at Holy Angels, 5pm. Would you like to go?

Amy - let me talk with Mike....and check our schedule....I'll be on the look out for more info about this...it would probably be fun to attend a seder before we have our own. LOL
