A day to myself...& Palm Sunday

So today we headed to church this a.m. It was nice. We saw a nice production from a Calvary Chapel from another town.

Today we remember the day Jesus was recognized and glorified as King while on earth. This whole week is a special week. As Christians we can celebrate Passover as Jesus was our Passover Lamb. His blood keeps us from the wrath to come. Then we have Good Friday as we remember Jesus's death...and then Resurrection Sunday (I refuse to call it Easter)...It's my hope that I focus on the life of Christ in a special way this week. It's good to remember all that he has done for us.

Then after church my super duper hubby went and did some stuff for his parents and offered to take the kids so I could have a day to myself. I thought that was very nice of him and so a day to myself I had.

What did I do with my day? Well I did wash, dishes, cleaned up the RV, grocery shopped (got myself some Nike flip flops)and stopped by Dutch Bros for a mocha...then I spent some time reading the Bible (specifically about Palm Sunday) and surfed the net a tad...then they were back.

It actually was nice to have some time to clean up around here. And Sunday is our wash day so that really had to be done. Doing laundry in the laundry facilities isn't really that bad. For 4 loads wash and dry it's about $6.25 and it's all done in one hour and 15 minutes. So I do that twice a week. ... Normally I do laundry all day everyday. It was actually quite pleasant. And then also I have to fold it or hang it up right away so it doesn't wrinkle...so I get it folded and put away a lot faster than I used to. It used to sit on the couch for a bit either folded or unfolded..

I really think I miss the dishwasher more than the laundry machine and dryer. It takes me a long time to hand wash dishes. And it hurts my back standing there for so long.

So I wasn't totally alone. My dog was with me. He went to the store with me. So it was a nice quiet day. A good recharge of the batteries I felt.

So off to start a new week. Hope you have a good one.

time to go to costco and get a ton of paper plates and stuff so you don't have much to wash. I just love RV life.
