February 15. A very cool day with bits of rain off and on. Raining this evening. I looked and looked at that afghan hexagon I had made yesterday. There was something not quite right about it. Hmmm, it only has five sides. I certainly must have done something wrong somewhere. So, took it all apart and remade it. Well, it’s not quite finished, but it does now have six sides. Afterward I did some Bible study and then wrote an e-mail to the Mitchells. This afternoon, I dusted off the desks, notebooks, shelves, etc. in the schoolroom. It had gathered quite a bit of dust since it hadn’t been used for a while. Then I looked over my lesson for today, as the students would be coming back to school. Most of the rest of the day was given to working on the elder/deacon lessons. February 16. The day began looking like it would be a sunny wash day. But before mid-morning, a third layer of fog came up, this one darker fog, bringing with it a little drizzle, hanging around the rest of the morning, and keeping the air damp and cool. The wood stove fire was very welcome. After breakfast and quiet time, I made kefir, put eggs on the wood stove to boil for egg salad sandwiches, and finished the first afghan hexagon, for the second time, but this time it is right and looks much better. Started on a second hexagon and then wrote an e-mail. Had just started writing in my journal when Daddy saw rain up in the woods so we hurried outside to bring all the clothes in. Had just gotten inside when the rain reached here. Hung all the clothes up in the spare room except for two dry items — a pillow case and Daddy’s hat. Finished writing the morning’s events in the journal and worked on elder/deacon lessons until dinner time. This afternoon, I looked over the story portion we would be reading in the history of missions in PNG, made the egg salad, ate part of my supper, taught my class, finished supper, took down the dry clothes, had bath, and did more work on elder-deacon lessons. “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.” Hebrews 10:22
