Third Quarter is Ending!

What a week.  We started off with a very rainy Monday!  Heavy rain most of the day - over an inch.  My yard was quite wet and sloppy.  I enjoyed though having a productive day of cleaning my house, doing laundry, and working on school.  This was our week for our nine-weeks tests so it is a heavy week of getting all done for the nine weeks and finishing up grades.


Fig - she is so funny.  Here she is sleeping in Max's kennel on his bed!  He would not have liked that if he would have let her know.  Ha!


We got so soaked going on our Monday morning walk!  He was wet even hours later!



Watching my kiddo sing in the choir.


Sunday, we had visited a friend's church - Grandview Baptist Church in Beaverton.  On Tuesday, they delivered to our door a gift of cinnamon rolls and a thank you for visiting.  I love to see a church having a process for assimilation for visitors!  It is vital and this speaks to their process.  



A new napping place for Fig!  Cats are so funny.


Monday evening, we had dinner with the pastor and his wife.
Tuesday, I went to Happy Valley to have my chiropractor appt. and to go grocery shopping.
Wednesday evening, church was just the annual business meeting which I attended.  Eric was scheduled to meet with the pastor but the pastor changed his mind so it was canceled.
Thursday was a heavy day of nine weeks exams and finishing school work for the week.
Friday is my day I work at the school.


The gas prices here in Oregon keep rising.  This is from Friday, March 4 and it is the lowest price we have.  The highest in our town right now is $4.59 a gallon.  Our president has failed Americans with his policy decisions into moving us away from being energy independent.


Soup on a chilly, rainy March day hits the spot!


My sweet Fig. :)

Happy 45th Birthday, Eric!

  Happy birthday to my husband, Eric!   He turns 45 today.  I am surprising him with tickets to a Miami Dolphins game in Miami.  I got him tickets one other time years ago when we lived in Reno.  We drove to Oakland to see the Dolphins play the Raiders.  I think this will be a great memory for him and a home game too! Happy birthday, babe!

Recipe: Chicken Parmesan

  Chicken Parmesan This is a delicious recipe from Magnolia Table: Volume 2. 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts  1/4 tsp. kosher salt 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper 2 large eggs 1 tsp. garlic salt 1 sleeve (30-40) buttery crackers, crushed 4 oz.
