 Greetings from Terra Dulcis this Thursday afternoon.  The sun is shining, the wind from yesterday (!) has died down, and it's a pleasant but cool day.  

Listening to:  NOTHING!  Even Lovey my parakeet is sitting quietly in his cage, the clock on the wall is ticking but barely noticeable.  And that's quite alright by me at the moment.  Silence is golden.  A wind chime outside in blowing lightly.

(this is one of my favorite scriptures!)

What's happening at Terra Dulcis?   * Az and I are at the last hour of Return of the King which we'll finish tonight.  Next week, we'll start on the Hobbit Trilogy.  We break the movies up since they're so long.  LOTR is coming for back in theaters for limited time, but I don't think I can do that!  Each movie is around 3 hours long. 

*Still purging stuff but it has slowed down a bit.  There's an outbuilding I can't get into at the moment, but it'll happen! 

*Laundry done and put away, I'm going to make a little lunch and maybe knit a while.  

Praying for:  *every day the news just gets worse.......
*Getting lined up for Lenten practices, as it's just over a month away already.
*Everyone.  Esp. Melania, Rachel, Kastl, Molly. 
*Gratitude for my continued health.

What's cooking? This week I've made pork chops, steak, baked potatoes, bought a rotisserie chicken (thinking of chicken and dumplings?), will probably make a stew at some point on Saturday or Sunday.  ((Temps in the teens expected Sunday morning!!??)  Stew always hits the spot when it's cold.  With cornbread.  Now I'm hungry.....

My Current WIP: Still knitting on the grey/pink combo blanket.  Now, when I say pink, it's more a pinky blush.  Very elegant, very pretty shade with the grey.  It's going to be bigger than I planned!  I have yet to be good at gauging starting stitches at cast-on!  I think for a baby blanket, I should stick with 75 to 80, but I've been second guessing myself and going to 98 to 105.  Oh well.  It is what it is. 

Ok, I'll keep today's fairly short, because it is past lunchtime, and I've got a couple of phone calls to make.  Let me leave you with a really good quote from Bishop Baron I heard the other day:  
"He is King, or He is nothing!" 



Christus est rex in aeternum,

Until next time, kellie
