Mother Nature is such a tease! The past couple of days have been so nice. Yesterday it was up to 71. We dug out the patio furniture, picked up sticks in the lawn and just enjoyed being out in the sun! Today it is about 31 and there are a few snow flakes in the air. Oh well, a good day to be in the house getting some things done. It has been such a busy couple of weeks I haven't gotten much housework done. This past week I was only home one night. I went to a seminar on "Pioneer Women in Southwest Minnesota" on Tuesday, Wednesday was Lenten Service, Thursday a meeting, Friday "Prairie Music" concert and last night was the George Washington banquet at the lodge. today is Travis' birthday so after church we all went out for lunch at the Hub (yum, yum). This afternoon I need to get organized for a meeting I have to go to in Sioux Falls tomorrow. Not especially thrilled to go that far for a meeting, but it is part of my job. this next week will be busy as well. I need to get the house cleaned and some food made for Easter. I have both sides coming over. My side is coming over for lunch after church and Leon's side for supper. I decided that if I was going to go through all the work of cleaning the house that well and making food, I might as well have both sides over. Well, off to get some more cleaning done!
