Scavenger Hunt

I made a trip to Muncie tonight to find 450 of the same item for church this weekend, and to get food before the snow hits. Stopped at Target and found about one third of what I needed. Then on to WalMart and believe it or not WalMart did not have any of what I needed, and I thought that you could buy everything at WalMart. I then tried Marsh, again no luck. Dollar Tree was the next stop, none there. Walgreens stuck out, Aldi's was a big chance and no luck. Tried CVS, they had some but not the right size. I found a few at Deals under a Dollar. Found the rest of what I needed at Dollar General. It was a fun hunt and I got pretty excited when Dollar General had exactly the amount I needed. I then spent quite a while for the cashier and manager to figure out how to process a tax exempt purchase.
All in all it was fun hunting.
I think that you will enjoy your suprise this weekend.

Thankful

Do you ever have times in your life where little things are very enjoyable. I have had several items lately that have brought me joy. For the first time in many years I have subscribed to a magazine. I would not have done this if it was anyone other than my niece selling magazines. But I caved in and ordered Birds and Blooms. I received my first issue this week. The pictures are beautiful and I enjoy reading the articles written by other lovers of birds and blooms. It makes waiting for spring a little easier.
I also keep thinking about next Monday when I get to go play with clay again. Playing with clay is just so much fun!
Then I signed up today to go with some dear friends to a conference called "Restoring the Walls". I am anxiously awaiting the end of February when we get to go be refreshed in the presence of God. I am also very thankful to have friends that will pray for me, minister to me and just help me out when I lose my focus. God is so good to us and gives us so many wonderful things to enjoy.

I'm back

Just thought I would let you know that I am still around. That little project I posted about is what I have been spending my time on. I should have it finished up in a few more weeks. Now that I can see the end of the project I will try to post a few blogs. By the way this is my 62ND post. I just thought I would comment on my
62ND post because no one ever comments on a number like 62.
Tonight I attended my first ceramics class at The Corner Stone Center for the Arts. I made a pinch pot and worked on a coil pot, then watched a demonstration on throwing clay on a wheel. I can't wait until next week. I have always loved playing in the dirt and clay is just another form of dirt.
