A Month Has Gone By???

I was reminded today that a month has gone by without my posting anything on the blog, so I guess it is time again to write something. I struggle to think of anything worth writing and all that comes to mind is just the ordinary stuff that goes on from day to day. Twenty five or thirty hours at the FHC each week, an occasional trip to the grocery store with my sweetheart, checking out some of the sales in town and other routine things.

We did go buy some things to wrap little bars of soap to give to everyone at the FHC. They look quite nice. Frankincense and myrrh soaps wrapped in netting with a gold ribbon and a little thank you note. We finished 35 or so the other night and only have another 50 to go before the end of the week.



We have been almost full time soaping recently. Last batch was with our son and his family. We made some pretty wild combinations with orange/gardenia, and another batch with red clover tea with red peppermint swirls. They really look and smell great!

We did have a fun evening the other night when we hosted a special Christmas dinner for 60 single senior citizens. It was catered by an old friend of ours that owns a local restaurant. (rather than saying an old friend, i should say a friend of long standing) Everything went well. The dinner was fabulous, everyone had a great time, and they all enjoyed the little resin snowmen we had as gifts for them. We had a lot of help from some wonderful people and when the night was over, we were pleased that things had gone so well.

I guess that the next week will be filled with Christmas preparations. We are looking forward to that.
