4/4 Easter -not according to MY plan

But always according to HIS plan and I am so very thankful that God is in charge and I am not. I went to bed last night not feeling all that great and woke up this morning not feeling well at all. When I looked out the window and saw this though;

That certainly was a fun pick-me-up! At 5:30 it was snowing hard, the trees were covered and it looked like it might add up to something. My hubby had to decide if an outside sunrise service was a go or not. It was a GO! I stayed home in bed.
I missed the breakfast at church which means I missed my ONCE A YEAR opportunity to have biscuits and gravy. Oh, I know that they are available year 'round but it is something I really don't handle all that well since my gallbladder was removed. I make an exception once a year when a friend makes her special recipe just for Easter breakfast. I missed the main service as well which is when the play was performed.I would have gone to assist with costumes if the young lady that was helping me wasn't able to handle it. She assured me that she could take care of it. So I stayed at home and slept on and off.
When hubby and my son arrived home just before 1 p.m. this is what it looked like outside;

Isn't that crazy??? Temperature got up to 50 degrees!

I was feeling a bit better by this afternoon and fixed a dinner of barbecued salmon,roasted red potatoes and garlic bread. Time for a little sewing before anyone was ready for dessert so I got all of the rows stitched together and now I have a table runner flimsy.

Time for strawberry shortcake!

I also have the sashing strips cut for the Verna quilt so that should be tomorrow's project.


Praise - He is RISEN!!! This really could be my praise daily. If it weren't for that truth what else matters?

Prayers - That I would get over this bug and be able to have a productive week ahead.
