Another beautiful day in Oklahoma.    I just looked at the temp and it is 59 degrees.     It was actually a bit warmer earlier in the afternoon and a cold front is coming through tonight so I had better enjoy this.

Spent the day sorting my trip stuff.   Hope I make wise choices.   The one for the Wild Game Dinner, I should have extended one more day.    But I was thinking that I am returning for the Celtic Women conference in less than two weeks and have a day or so extra on that.     Then In June, I will come again for the big wedding.    Yes, Jessie, if you read this, It is a BIG wedding, at least in your old Aunt Mary's eyes and I am so glad that I am able to come.

I've been snacking on fresh raspberries this afternoon.    I sometimes forget how much I love them but they were on sale on Monday - Nice red plump sweet ones!!!!!

Well, I made several reservations for the trips to Wisconsin that I will be making as this year rolls around.

The first is the Wild Game Dinner.   I am only staying for three days on that one, as I am coming back to Wisconsin the 20th for the Celtic Women Conference and am coming a day early and staying three days afterwards.

So hard to decide these things,  but one must.   Especially if you want decent air fares.    I am renting a car for both of the events.

Will Let all affected know the dates and plans in the next week or so.

Kerry has her grandchildren tomorrow so she came to clean this morning.

Then I went grocery shopping and spend a fortune on Nicky's flea and heartworm medicine.   This is when Dick and I would look at the critters and ask them if they were really worth that much.    Of course, they always are:)

Tonight was the Quilt Guild Meeting.  I had not attended for months.   We had a very interesting stimulating educational meeting.      It is a really good guild.

So.   Tomorrow should be quiet.   I am very tired right now.

It was an eventful day, as it turned out.

I went to the 8:30AM mass.    We had a special blessing of water to take home with us to use to Bless our homes along with special prayers and chalk to mark our front door as the door of a home that is dedicated to Christ.   We wrote 20C+M+B+18.  CMB  stands for Christ bless this house and 2018 for the year.   The plus signs are Crosses.

Tonight Marlies and I were invited to Bart and Barb's home for dinner   We had scallops and shrimp with side dishes and berry cobbler for dessert.    All was excellent.  And the company was fun also.  

Now I am ready for bed.   Just got to get Nicky out to do his business.  

Marlies gave me a bag of fresh pecans in the shell.    Guess what I'll be doing in the next week or so?
