Another week goes by with a whoosh. I'm thankful Susanne at Living to Tell the Story hosts this weekly pause to stop and count our blessings. Here are a few of mine:
1. Timothy's birthday!
His mom made this amazing Minecraft gluten-free Oreo cheesecake for his birthday.
We met them for lunch at Timothy's favorite pizza place, then went to their house for a birthday dinner of fish tacos. All in all, I think he had a nice day.
2. Internet work in the area completed. We received texts on several different days that our Internet provider was doing updates in our area which might cause an interruption or loss of service. It wasn't noticeable most of the days, but wouldn't you know the biggest loss of service occurred the morning I had a Zoom call. I was able to tie my iPad into the hot spot on my phone, and everything went well. We finally received a text that they were done.
3. Rummaging through old cards and mementos. I was looking for a particular picture that I had taken out of a photo album and then hadn't put back in the right place (a bad habit that I am striving not to do any more!) I thought for sure I had used it on my computer or Facebook, but could not find it in on any digital formats. I checked the photo albums it could have come from, and it wasn't there. I had a couple of boxes with old cards and letters with a few photos and looked through them. I didn't find the picture I wanted there, but I had fun looking through everything else in the box. I didn't let myself open every card and note---I didn't have that kind of time. But I found a few treasures. And I did get them organized into groups from each recipient. (What do you do with old cards?)
4. Finally finding the picture I was looking for in time to use it in yesterday's post. I had a copy of it in a scrapbook I had made for Jason when he graduated from high school.
5. Swiss Ham Ring-Around, one of our must-have dishes using leftover ham from Easter.
Happy Friday!
