Felt much better today.  I got a couple shelves in the fridge clean and a couple loads of laundry done.  I packaged up the Honey Blossom soap and did a little putting away of things away in the dungeon.  I'm waiting to hear from Diane when a good time would be to come get the goat's milk.  Lately I have switched to the powdered and the only difference I've noticed is that I'm not getting the dreaded orange spots.  I wonder if it's because I've always done an oven process on my bars.  I haven't noticed any difference in the soap although those who use fresh goat's milk will tell you that there is a difference.  I've used both and, other than the powdered being easier and more expensive, I can't tell the difference in the finished product.

The girls were here this morning.  Madison was feeling very "cool."

Tuesday of the Fourth week of Easter
Saint(s) of the day : St. Paschal Baylon
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 10:22-30.

The feast of the Dedication was taking place in Jerusalem. It was winter.
And Jesus walked about in the temple area on the Portico of Solomon.
So the Jews gathered around him and said to him, "How long are you going to keep us in suspense? If you are the Messiah, tell us plainly."
Jesus answered them, "I told you and you do not believe. The works I do in my Father's name testify to me.
But you do not believe, because you are not among my sheep.
My sheep hear my voice; I know them, and they follow me.
I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish. No one can take them out of my hand.
My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one can take them out of the Father's hand.
The Father and I are one."
