My Week: October 23-29


Thank you for stopping by my blog today!  My computer was under repair but thankfully I am back. :)  

Boy, where do I begin?  Well, I have been having some issues with my laptop.  I would be typing and then it would just stop working.  My keyboard.  I would restart it and it would work again.  Well, eventually that trick stopped working.  Then it just wouldn't start at all.  Then it started doing a fire alarm sound.

At that point, I called Dell and they did a check on it and found out some of the hardware had failed which was still covered by warranty still.  Praise the Lord!  So I have been without a laptop for a little while so no blogging.  I got it back this morning (Wednesday) and am gonna try to catch up here while I'm at work. :)

Sunday, my husband was gone to Cleveland, OH to preach and do skits for a church there.  So it was just the girls and I for Sunday.

I worked the nursery for the first service and Awana for the second service.  After the service, we had lunch at Dickey's (to be honest - I was too tired to prep anything for lunch for us.)  After lunch, I crashed.  I think my body said, Enough is enough.  I took a nap and vegged on the couch until evening church.

Worked the nursery for the evening service and then home and off to work.

Monday - off at 8am.  Home to shower and then off to get the hubby from the airport at 10am.  Breakfast with him and then home to do school with the girls.
I also made a meal for Larry and Tracey.  Tracey just had some major surgery in Utah and is now at home recovering.  I made BBQ chicken breasts, cottage mashed potatoes, homemade mac and cheese and asparagus. MMM!  I made a double meal - one for Larry and Tracey and one for us.  I was also able to send a meal over to our neighbors - Bob and Ida.  Bob just returned from San Francisco from back surgery and is also recovering.  You never regret doing things for others - you always feel so blessed!

After our dinner, it was off the gym and then to work.



Tuesday morning, off work at 8am.  School and housework/laundry.  And a cup of hot apple cider. :)


We had meatball subs and sweet potato fries for dinner and then off the gym and then work.  Not much to tell about this day.  LOL!


Wednesday, a new day.  Off at 8am.  School and housework/laundry.


The weather was just about perfect.  Just one of those super nice fall days.  One of my mum plants in my front beds.


Dropped off the older girls for their piano lessons and Summer and I went grocery shopping at Winco.  She picked out a berry bagel for a treat - a girl after my own heart. ;)


Finished up school, made an egg and tator tot casserole for dinner and then the girls and I left for the Trick or Treat night at the North Valley strip mall.  Autumn is a fairy, Sierra is Spiderman and Summer a ladybug. After that, we went to the gym and then I was off to work.


Wednesday night, I was at the hospital with my client.  Those are super long nights.  Always glad to get to the morning. :)  The view was beautiful at least!  Aren't those mountains gorgeous???

Thursday was a quiet day at home with school and housework.  Did some prep for the Harvest Party.
Worship practice at 6pm.


Friday morning began sunny and blue.  It wasn't long before it turned.


It became a pretty rainy day.  We did school.  At 12:30pm, I was supposed to have my annual review for work - they had mixed up the days and told me the wrong Friday.


My LifeProof phone case finally took its final beating.  It lasted for one year and three months which is awesome!  I have never had a case last that long.  My phone (inside the case) still looks brand new!  I told everyone, I will never try any other case.  These cases are the bomb.  Thankfully I get the spouse's discount at Sportsman's because they are pricey but not as pricey as a new phone!  I don't want to chance breaking my phone.  So hence the camo case because that is what Sportsman's had left. Ha!


That evening, we had a staff dinner at Louis Basque Corner.  Yummy!


The Lord gave us a beautiful day Saturday for our church's annual Harvest Party!  It rained a good part of Friday and poured and poured on Sunday but a beautiful day Saturday!  Yay!


I do love the clouds around the mountains!


I managed a few photos from this year's Harvest Party!  Most of the time, I get so busy I forget.
We had a great turnout!  Thank you to all who came and also those who helped!
We served chili dogs and nachos.  Everyone brought side dishes to go along with the meal.
Everyone brought their own cold drinks and we provided hot cocoa and coffee.
We had games, a costume competition and a pumpkin decorating competition for the children.  They also went from person to person to "trick or treat".
Kids and teens enjoyed a hay ride on Pastor Joe's truck.  The teens competed in a whip cream eating competition.








Great memories as a church family!  I hope you had a good week.  God bless!
