Good afternoon!
Homeschool co-op day for us, so I'm just getting some time to post. We get done at 1:15, but by the time I round everyone up and we get home, it's closer to 1:45.
Our storm shelter was installed today. Whew! After almost 17 years here without a convenient place to go (we could go to the school basement in the town where we used to live but have had nowhere the past 7 years), we finally have a safe place. Just in time for storm season, too. The concrete needs to set more before we go in it, but in a couple of days we will go down and check it out and put a few supplies down there: water bottles, maybe a blanket or two, some snacks, and a bucket in case we are stuck awhile and need to pee. I may store my potatoes down there, too.
I am doing the Restore workshop (started last week) so will do that shortly and take a little breather. I go in my room in my nice little corner I set up a couple of weeks ago for that. Comfy chair, small table, lamp, and a pretty throw. It's my reading/writing nook. Not that I write much, but planning, goal-setting, meal-planning, etc... .
Beautiful weather this week, though up and down still. High of 53 for Wednesday and 83 for Thursday...crazy!
Dinner tonight is baked steak with gravy, mashed potatoes, and sauteed cabbage.
