November 5. First job this morning was to prepare a pot of carrots and broccoli as I was all out of breakfast veggies. Started quiet time while it was cooking and continued while I was eating. Then it was time to make the weekly soup. Got out the other bag of carrots to put into the soup, but they were spoiled. We had just gotten them on Thursday at WM so will return them to the store. Now what would I do? Oh, yes, I still have a butternut squash left that we had bought several weeks ago. Didn’t have a big knife to cut it up with so had to use a small paring knife to cut it up, peel it, and dice it. Also added lentils, beef bouillon, butter, the rest of the celery (just a few pieces), napa cabbage, apples, onion, and herbs and seasonings. By the time I got that on to cook, I was ready to sit down and take a load off my feet and legs. Finished my prayer time before opening up the computer and starting other work. Started setting up journal notes for Connie. Was hungry so finished up my leftover soup. Then Daddy and I went out for a walk in the fresh air. Then I read through and made corrections in the journal notes and sent them to Connie. Started work on a newsletter. After nap, Daddy and I went for another walk while it wasn’t raining. When we came back inside, I did more work on the newsletter while my soup cooled. Then I pureed the soup, and by then it was almost supper time. I was hungry so had an early supper. After supper, I crocheted for a little bit. Washed the dishes. Listened to a Sunday school lesson on injustice by Pastor Weiss, based a lot on the stories of Jacob and Esau and also of Joseph. Crocheted some more. Worked on culture lessons. Crocheted some more. “….do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?” Micah 2:7b Amen! God’s words do do good to him that walketh uprightly. November 6. The morning was warm and wet. While I was having my morning drinks, I put a couple eggs on to boil so I could make egg salad later for Daddy’s sandwiches. Also put some quinoa on to cook for my breakfast. After I ate breakfast, we started gathering things together to take to C&C’s house. We had errands to run along the way—a few items to get at WalMart, stamps to buy at PO and a couple cards to mail, a couple GNC items to purchase at RiteAid. It was just before 10:00 when we arrived at C&C’s place. First thing to do was say good morning to Connie and Freddie. Then put food away in fridge, make a smoothie, have Connie take a picture of the market bag, and set up my computer. I opened up the culture lessons file, but we got going on some discussions; and before we knew it, it was past time to get the potatoes ready to go with Daddy’s dinner. I hastened to the kitchen; peeled, washed, and cut up the potatoes, and set them on the stove to cook. It didn’t take too long for them to get done. Then I added butter, cream, and salt and pepper and whipped them up with the mixer. After our nap, I did get to work on the culture notes until supper time, completed another section, and got ready to start the next section. Had supper after that. Crocheted a little. Washed up a great pile of dishes. Crocheted a little more. We listened to a message by Pastor Leonard of PABC.
