IF SOMEONE WERE TO SAY SPRING ON THE PRAIRIE IS HERE, it would be challenged as Sunday was a dreary day with rain fall off and on all day with gray skies. A day to stay inside and do other things. Northwest Kansas was having snow flurries as we are having rain with cool temps. Where did our gorgeous weather go? Went into hiding. In the cloud for safe keeping.
I believe, I have had better days as I can tell I'm grumpy about the ongoing cold weather where the sun does not shine. I'm not in control of the weather and some would say that TESLA is. Some would say that our government is messing with the dynamics of the weather as chem trails are sprayed in the open skies. What would you say? A big controversy continues about the chem trails verses condensation trails. I personally believe that government aircraft are spraying chemicals in the skies to control the weather and crops. Why? To control the masses and make the little guy more dependent on the government. Conspiracy 101? Say what you will. It is alright to be a thinker and not accept everything being said to the masses. Open for conversation.
The Bathroom has a brand new toilet, a new marble top vanity with deep white sink and now a beautiful chrome plated faucet. We hung an old antique mirror from an old dresser. Vanity lamps hang on both sides of the mirror. Soon the old antique clawfoot tub will be set up with a new tile back splash behind it. We had the tub's clawfeet chromed. Beautiful. It took a while to get them back from the company that chromed them, but we have them now. Some bead board has gone up. New light colored gray tile has been laid on the floor and as time permits, a new ceiling will go in with a new ceiling light and a linen cabinet built. Our first big COTTAGE projects will be completed in the SPRING. Praise the LORD.
We moved our small BOSE RADIO to sit on top of the antique walnut chest in the Living room where I can play the radio and listen to CDs. It looks alright there and should play nicely when on. I have some teaching CDs that I can listen to as I sit in my blue wing chair. If I knew how to knit or crochet I'd have it made.
When dusting, I cleared off the DUMB WAITER TABLE that sits beside my blue wing chair. Admiring that it looks better cleared off with just a landline phone, a Tiffany lamp, coasters and a metal clock on it. A small electric fan sits there as well to where I can turn it on when too hot.
Our lil COTTAGE is a dust collector. We do have DUST BUNNIES as well. Just because she's small does not mean she doesn't have DUST. Kansas DUST is everywhere. I should know that by now.
I managed a short nap in my brown recliner this afternoon. I still haven't fixed the GRANDS Easter Baskets. Got to get this done before the sun goes down. A few more Bunnies came out of a storage box. They remind me of CHOCOLATE BUNNIES. Good enough to eat.
I did not make it to church today, but viewed a MEGA CHURCH's service at HOME. SO disappointed. Shouldn't more be said about what happened on Palm Sunday by the lead Pastor? It was a disappointing sermon. Perhaps the Pastor doesn't know how awesome our Jesus is and what it meant to have Jesus ride into town on a donkey where people were waving palm branches and laying them down on the path that he would ride over.
Years ago, when we lived in Spring Texas, our Pastor shared a sermon on Easter Sunday about Jane Pauley instead of sharing the magnificent story of Jesus raising from the dead. We left this Church after that one. If I had to do it over again, would I have shared an exiting interview as to why I was leaving this particular church I was a member of? I so loved my lady friends that I associated with in Mother's Club, Ladies Circle and Bible Studies and a sewing group. I'd eventually leave the community as we relocated back to Kansas.
I was thinking about the Ladies I became friends with in Manhattan. All but a couple have passed away onto glory. I miss them. Time to make new friends. Way past time to associate with sisters in Christ. When in between churches, it's different territory.
I will find comfort in my HOME where I can cook and clean, organize, spending time as I need to. Reading and writing. Thinking and praying. I am what is called a HOME MAKER in small town America. HOME LIFE is for me.
Another week has begun. I pray it is a peaceful one as I will be having Cataract surgery and then the recovering takes place. This Easter I will be staying HOME.
