A Much-needed Home Rest

It's been a while since posting my last blog. We have been home for a week now and could have been enjoying it much better had the weather cooperated! But we have been able to accomplish a few things around the house.
We hired someone to build a new back porch/deck for us. We bought and arranged for installation of 2 new back doors. Arranged for lawn service while we're gone. And today Robyn and I organized the attic in preparation for a huge yard sale whenever we manage to get home again.
Since we eat out a lot on the road I decided that some genuine home cooking was in order this week. Ron has been really enjoying all the great foods. I've cooked things I haven't made in a long time and made some great desserts to go with them--pecan pie, pineapple upside down cake, ice cream. Yummy!! Maybe it's a good thing we don't get home but once in a great while :)
We also had to do a little business with the Post Office this week. Besides mailing a couple of packages we got a PO Box. With us gone for such long periods at a time we felt it safer to get a po box so we didn't have to worry about our mail. What a process! The worst part is informing EVERYONE about an address change. Took us about 2 days and I hope I haven't forgotten anyone.
We want to wish everyone a very blessed Easter. It's been wonderful to be able to attend all Holy week services at home this week. It doesn't get any better than that! And add the fact that the Easter Bunny is making several trips to our house this weekend: the doors on Saturday and the deck on Monday. Too bad we can't enjoy them much since we have to pick up a load in Ft. Wayne by 8 a.m. Monday. AAAhhhhhh, such is life. Until later . . . . .
