Hertzler Doings~Feb. 9-15, 2015

Mon.-Nathan came over this morning. In the eve. the Lucas's joined our family for dinner. Had such a nice time with them.

Tues.-Visited Teresa and girls and Franklin. Then went to Poulston's to pick up refrigerator parts. Then to homeschool meeting. Then home.

Wed.-Busy day. Met Jenny for lunch at Uptown. Then visited Karen M. in her lovely apartment. Then to Charity's for a visit and supper. Then a quick trip to Walmart and then to New Life for Book Study on The Bait of Satan with Dianna.

Thurs.-Another busy day without Nathan.... Left in the morning and went shopping with Susan then to basketball game with New Covenant. Game went into overtime and our girls lost by 2 points.

Fri.-Day at home with Nathan, visit from Alli, did wash, cleaning, made pizza crusts. Girls came home with Susan and finished making the pizzas. Molly, Mary, Claire, and Susan, spent the night at HV.

Sat.-Tidied house. Cleaned off top of desk. Everything. Looks amazing and is very functional. Going to keep going bulldozing our bedroom. When it's finished, maybe I'll buy a new comforter. Made a chicken vegetable potpie in the roaster with mashed potatoes on top. Also made a shoofly cake. Nathan came in the eve. while his parents prepared SS lesson. He did not like his bath. Took him a long time to get over the trauma of being in a different tub. As soon as I opened a book however, he forgot his sorrow. He played with Grandpa on the floor and the crawled all over the place. Both were wearing camo. Philip came in and Nathan got so excited. Freeman came then and we had a party with the lad. What a darling little darling.

Sun.-Lost power around 2. Phil, Philip, and Michael got the generator running because of possibility of water freezing. Power still out at the time we leave for church. N had a rough night. Alli stayed home from church. Actually, Phil had to work extra hard in the barn and he, Susan, and I, stayed home. Freeman taught SS and then came home and then they came over for the day. They don't have a generator. It's around 10 degrees outside. They are calling for 8-12 inches tomorrow night. Phil told me tonight that I make the best popcorn and that I am the best grandma in the world. He said Nathan is so lucky or blessed. I forget which he said. Susan went to AJ's skating world for Mary's 16th birthday party. They got there around 3 and it closes at 4. They didn't know that. Philip went from church to Lapp's. Susan and Michael played Monopoly and now they are playing Dutch Blitz. Phil is listening to a music concert DVD that Michael got him for Christmas. I am going to read a biography and relax in the tub. This may be the first Sunday of three that I miss church and I miss my people already.
