January 23, 2026 Friday

 It felt amazing to have a Friday at home. Something that I have realized over the last while is that when I have a day off all of the time, I take it for granted but when it usually has something it is like I have been given this great gift of time to do everything and anything I have been wanting to do.

In the morning I went for a run, then when I came home I did a few things that needed to be done around the yard in preparation for the cold. I put a bunch of mulch over the banana trees, covered the faucets, put more bedding for the ducks. While I was doing these things I finished watching Grease 2 that I had started last night. I skipped through most of it so I can't give the best opinion of it but my opinion is that it is a one timer if that. I really liked Grease (other than the ending) but Grease 2 seemed just like a bad second of the first.

After the outside work, I came in showered, we ate a sheet pancake that Evan had made then I got to work on the laundry that I did throughout the whole day. I figured it would be good to have it all done before the cold set in. I got most of it done. I also washed the chair cushions, everyone sheets, towels, ect. After having illness it felt like it was time for a good cleaning. Everyone did their chores well and passed off the poem and scripture then did their game time. I went and checked on the school just making sure all of the faucets were dripping and that it was all set for the freeze.

Michael picked up fajitas from On the Border for the family and then we watched Pysch at night. Was a wonderful day.
