We had a busy weekend -- our hill country friends came for a visit and we really enjoyed seeing them. It was good to sit and talk -- we didn't do anything special -- just caught up on the news about family and friends.

Monday was quilting day and then Tuesday I did my volunteer data entry at Katy Christian Ministries. I really enjoy doing that! It was a beautiful sunny day -- a little cold, but bright sunshine was a welcome sight. I took a walk after lunch and it was wonderful to be outside.

Class day -- today we studied prepositions and it was a good class. All of the students seemed to understand what was being said and they seemed to pay more attention than usual. I learned a lot about prepositions, also. It has been years since I actively studied prepositions and prepositional phrases. In preparing for the class I learned some new things. Interesting.

After our preposition study they unscrambled sentences. You know -- a row of words like
chocolate I cake like becomes "I like chocolate cake." This was difficult for some of them but they did pretty well. I gave them a second set of sentences to do for homework.

We also had cake -- I may like chocolate cake but that isn't what we had. I had made a jello poke cake for an event that was cancelled so I put on the icing and strawberries and took it to class. Everyone thought it was good. What we didn't eat I left for the librarians - I didn't want to bring any of it home -- even though it is a very "light" cake I didn't need it getting into my mouth!

After class I took my friend M to lunch to celebrate her birthday and then we visited a local hospital and a skilled nursing center to visit two friends who are having health problems. It made me really aware of how blessed I've been in the area of health!
