Finally a warm spring day in East Tn.....better enjoy it as another cold front on the way.  We have had some gorgeous days, but seems like Spring is kind of "sputtering" in.  How is that for descriptive?


I think I may go wander through some shops today.  Its been a long time since I have had the time or energy to do that.  Mother is somewhat settled again and doing better so that is not quite as draining as it has been.  I need some khaki slacks so that is one specific thing, although I love just "window" shopping.


Easter rush is past at church so we have calmed somewhat......although our big Children's Spring Concert is this week and youth in May.  We are also planning a mini tour for one of our children's choirs in June......just around this region singing in retirement centers and culminating with a day at Six Flags in Atlanta. We will have two nights in a hotel with them.  AND, our largest adult choir has been asked to sing at the ordination service at our Methodist Conference this year, also in June........so that is exciting and takes some preparation (starting now!!)  Then there is Vacation Bible School......I do all the music and lead the daily opening and closing gatherings...........come to think of it.....maybe things have not calmed!!!  LOL!!


So....just wanted to check in with my cyber buddies before I go play for a couple of hours!!  Yippee!!   Hope you are all having a wonderful day.

Hugs,


Sooze

Going out to stimulate the economy, eh? Good girl! Wow, you sure ARE busy! That is really cool that your choir will be singing at Conference. Quite a kudo to you all!


I have not gone shopping for a long time. Actually that is not one of my favorite activities. The malls here are in bad shape. Some of them are closing. It's sad for the retailers. But many of the outdoor-type "malls" are popping up everywhere, you know, where you walk from outside store to store rather than inside a mall. Makes sense up here where it rains so much, huh? Duh.

We sang at conference about 10 years ago and then about 5 years ago, but both of those were at "lesser" worship services during the week.

I told someone just yesterday that it has only been in the last week that I have felt like I could breathe easy again.

Sooze, you inspired me! I took a mental health day, last week, and it was awesome! Something I think we all should do now and then, but we don't. We put everyone else first, and that's not good.


Anyway, I had a gift card from my birthday, last Nov., for Border's, that I just hadn't gotten around to using. With dh working from home, and his medical problems, lately, I was totally burned out. Tuesday,

Jan
