Easter Sunday

 I slept well last night and was up at my usual 5:00AM.  I am in the process of eating my breakfast now. 

Soon I will go watch "the weather on the 8's" on the weather channel. 

Then I will check on which cats are waiting to be fed.

It's Easter Sunday and I will also need to bake my coffeecake for those who come to church at 10:00AM for the Easter Sunday program...including and especially the little girls...my great granddaughters.

I have finished my breakfast and watched "the weather on the 8's" and the coffeecake is in the oven baking. It has another 40 minutes to go before I cool and ice it. Now I will check on the cat situation.

Blondie and Inky were the only ones out there this morning. I don't know where all the others are. But outside of Scruffie, I don't miss all the others. I haven't seen Scruffie in weeks.  

The coffeecake is out of the oven now and cooling. When it is cooled, I will ice it with the glaze. Now I will go back and watch the CBS Sunday news.

About five after 8:00AM, my TV went off. (Thanks Cox) I called Cox and while I was waiting to be connected to someone that could help me, it came back on. The Tivo recording device had to reboot too. I would so love to have reliable TV. Lord only knows Cox is not it... regardless of the overpriced basic service.  

I got the glaze onto the coffeecake. It's ready now and it's only 8:39AM. I will leave home at 9:30AM for the 10:00AM Easter service.

I saw on CBS news that 50% of people today say they have no religious affiliation. That's tragic but it explains the violence and hostility in today's world.  

I left at 9:20AM to go to the Easter service. I should have left a little earlier. I got there just in time to give the little girls and John some coffeecake. Then it was time for the service. The girls, Melissa and Leslie, and Kelly on the computer, did a good job. The service was different but interesting. Afterward I put several pieces of coffeecake in plastic bags and gave them to Kelly and some of the others. Then I went out to El Publeto for lunch with the other five. Karan was also there. John bought my lunch too. Then I went out to Woodshed and filled up with gas.  I brought two pieces of coffeecake home for Nancy.  

I will read this afternoon.

Tomorrow early, I will go down to Tate Boys, where Leslie bought my tires, and have the rotation done free of charge.. I will also have my oil changed for $14.95 on a special they sent me in the mail.  The Honda Agency wants $40.00 to do that anymore. And the Honda Agency always finds something else expensive to try to get me to allow. They may have just lost my business.

About 2:00PM, Leslie contacted me to remind me of a worship service with the resident of our church in Independence, Missouri. We watched it and so did Karan Maritt. It was very good.

I tried to call Nancy this afternoon to share my coffee cake with her but she never picked up the phone. That happens a lot. I will try again later...

I texted Rick and Carmen...We missed them today. Between family concerns and Rick's work they missed the Easter service but said they would be there next week. They are usually very faithful attenders.

It's a little after 4:00PM right now. I will go watch the news..if it's on.

The news was not on. So once again I tried to reach Nancy and this time she picked up. I took the two pieces of coffeecake over to her and stayed until 5:45PM and then after that I came home. I took my bath and watched my recorded 60 Minutes. Then I came in here to finish this blog. In the morning, I will take my car to Tate Boys in Bartlesville to get the tires aligned and the oil changed.

Now I will read for awhile until my eyes get tired and then go to bed.
