1. Lyngdals had an extra ticket at the last minute so I went to Funny Girl at the Orpheum with them. The female lead had a great voice. I’m curious to watch the movie.
2. The next day was my Wednesday date with Jo and Jenny. Between getting home late and leaving early for Becker I was a little sleep deprived, but it worked out. Totally worth it. 🥰 She’s 10 weeks here.
3. On Saturday I took a wheel throwing pottery class with Deb Lindahl and Lisa Bickford. It’s harder than it looks; certainly harder than a 2 hour class can remedy, but it was fun and in a couple weeks I can go pick up my two mediocre pots, all glazed and ready to become pencil holders. I would have taken a pic, but it’s a nasty mess and washing wasn’t convenient.
4. At my last confession I was directed to try more effort at Mass prep (although how that will keep me from being distracted by the GIGANTIC SCREENS, I’m not sure). Anyway, I am indeed prepping better by spending time with the scripture and a Lectio exercise that is funneling into these little images. It’s like journaling, but not the kind I hate doing. 3 weeks for 3, so far.
5. The table is covered with papercraft stuff being transformed into cute cards. I’m pretty sure my traditional Super Bowl party will be happening, hopefully with Jen.
6. I finished my 2nd smocking project- this time a dress for Thea. I’m finding the hardest part is turning a smocking project into a sewing project. There are no patterns made specifically for that and it’s a challenge to risk several hours of embroidery to a make it up pattern.
