Wednesday, Ash Wednesday

 So, the season of Lent begins. Sissie left early so Dan could have the car to go to service. I always remember my Irish dance troupe, where most of the kids were Catholic. They always came to rehearsal with ashes on their foreheads, and by the end of the three-hour rehearsal, their faces were really dirty, but they would not wipe anything off.  Good memories.

Dan and Kay and I went out to dinner last night and had such a good time.  I really do not like to eat out, but it is fun once in a while. We had a lot of laughs over Sissie's sewing mistakes. But then I make some real blunders also!!!!

I was busy yesterday and finished that wedding dress and it is already picked up. Just many clients in and out. Went to the gym after dinner and had a workout. I have a bride coming in tonight and one tomorrow.  So, my goal today is to get two dresses altered and another wedding dress done.

I just have to stay on top of these, and I haven't done a really good job of it at all. Must do better and I have no excuse.  This is the time of year where you can get two dresses out and three can come in... I just want to stay ahead and not have the stress.

Signe' called and both Kelsa and William are sick. She had to take the day off work, as she did not want me to deal with William throwing up right and left.  Thank you, sweet daughter. I guess Kelsa ran a fever off and on yesterday but did not really act sick. Chef Owens suggested teeth coming in and I had not thought of that.  Her 6-year-old molars might be coming in and causing the fever. But whatever William has, I do not want.

I need to go and scare me up some breakfast. Maybe bacon and eggs.  I pulled 11 eggs out of the coop this morning, so I am getting 4 eggs a day.  Way too many for me to use and I will be giving them away to family and friends.

Tomorrow will be busy as I have a piano lesson (it was moved) and a bride at 11:30, then I am attending a luncheon for cancer. Sissie will join me. I have to go to Signe's late in the afternoon (if the kids are not still sick) and spend the night as Signe' has a raining in Spokane and has to leave very early in the morning and Nathan will be working.  I will get the kids off to school and then come home and sew. Whew did you get all that because now I am confused.

Well, I am off! For those of you that celebrate the Lenten season, may it bring you peace and joy.

God is good
