I am so behind on this blog due to spotty internet connections. It is frustrating. When the connection works, it's great, but when it doesn't it is very frustrating. But for now it's working so I am updating my blog.

This week's flyzone is the bathroom and one extra room. Since the bathroom is in a state of demolition, I guess I will do some work in the back bathroom. My hands are kind of tied until the bathroom is done and I can move stuff out of the room where I have the Goodwill stuff housed. Thank goodness it will be done before Jamie and Nina come up again.

I poured a deer grubby and a tealight cone. I also managed to make a couple of stockings. Pretty productive day.

Word of the day:
Monday of the Fourth week of Lent
Today the Church celebrates : St. Louise de Marcillac (1591-1660), St Zachary, Pope (+ 752)
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 4:43-54.

After the two days, he left there for Galilee. For Jesus himself testified that a prophet has no honor in his native place. When he came into Galilee, the Galileans welcomed him, since they had seen all he had done in Jerusalem at the feast; for they themselves had gone to the feast. Then he returned to Cana in Galilee, where he had made the water wine. Now there was a royal official whose son was ill in Capernaum. When he heard that Jesus had arrived in Galilee from Judea, he went to him and asked him to come down and heal his son, who was near death. Jesus said to him, "Unless you people see signs and wonders, you will not believe." The royal official said to him, "Sir, come down before my child dies." Jesus said to him, "You may go; your son will live." The man believed what Jesus said to him and left. While he was on his way back, his slaves met him and told him that his boy would live. He asked them when he began to recover. They told him, "The fever left him yesterday, about one in the afternoon." The father realized that just at that time Jesus had said to him, "Your son will live," and he and his whole household came to believe. (Now) this was the second sign Jesus did when he came to Galilee from Judea.
