A Day in my Life - February

As usual, I'm sharing the first day of the month with you.  I'm glad to see February arrive; Spring is closer and the days are getting longer!

Tuesday's are my day off so here's how I spent a day without going to work.
I slept in until 8am (So wonderful!)
I got up and got ready and did a little pick up/clean up around the house.

and started the laundry.

I washed a few dishes and ran the dishwasher.

Then I left the house to run some errands.

I stopped at the pharmacy to pick up prescriptions and some valentines.

I had my nails done - the hardest part is choosing a color!

I filled up my tank and was irritated because the day before when I drove past, it was $3.10 a gallon - and on the day it had risen to #3.38!

I picked up groceries.

I drove home and admired the winter beauty.

I put away the groceries and finished the laundry, also ate some lunch and then was back on the road, heading to church for a 1:00 meeting.

I like the way the snow layers in ditches in the winter - and the water keeps running in them.

I spent about an hour at church.  We are planning a home-making workshop.  Myself and one other lady are teaching meal planning, freezer meals and money saving tips.  They are also having classes on men's haircuts, beginning knitting and crocheting, bread making.  It will be a fun Saturday!

This was my view on the way home.  We had freezing rain and then lots of snow predicted.  It did get pretty nasty that night and the next day.

When I got home, I made some freezer meals.  I made a baked Spaghetti recipe - 3 went into the freezer and one was for our supper. (I'll share the recipe later this week!)

When that was done, I spent some time working on my Sunday School study.  This is a very interesting book on the Old Testament feasts. and how they apply to us today.  

We had some baked spaghetti for supper - it was good!

I was just getting ready to settle down for the night, when I got a call from my sister, asking if I could run over to her house to look at some wallpaper she got.  She's redoing a room to make it a guest room.  I told her she was lucky I loved her because I wasn't feeling like going back out in the cold!  And it helps that she lives just around the corner from me!

Here's the paper - going up on just one accent wall.  It looked really good.

Then I came home and got on my pj's.  :)

I watched this show 'The Established Home'.  It's a show on the Magnolia Network.  This lady is a designer and I like seeing what she does, but the best part is that she is based in Grand Rapids and it's so fun to see areas I know pop up on the tv.

And soon it was time to go to bed.  I knew I needed to get up early to drive in through another snow storm in the morning!
