Monday, March 8, 2010 Exodus 20, Psalm 70, Luke 23
It was raining when I got up at 4:00 this morning.
I had a roast beef sandwich, coffee and a banana for breakfast.
I was really busy at work today, updating files, getting reports ready for the Health Cabinet and Finance meetings, and more.
Sis had a dental appointment this morning, but at noon she brought some cheeseburger soup for lunch.
For supper this evening I had another roast beef sandwich.
I read a couple more chapters of the library book aloud.

Exodus 17-18, Psalm 67-68, Luke 21
I took a library book back to the library this morning and got the next one in the series (Lillian Jackson Braun’s “The Cat Who Sang for the Birds”. I have it in regular-size print, but got it at the library in large print, as it is so much easier to read with my cataract. I also went to the store and got some groceries. Meanwhile, Phoebe was helping get ready for the next rummage sale at her church.
I made Macaroni Con Queso for lunch and we had green beans with it. It was delicious. For supper I fixed a rump roast in the slow cooker. It turned out very tender. I copied both recipes from BillyMax’s blog. The roast called for putting the roast in the slow cooker, pouring a package of dry onion soup mix over it and then pouring enough of a 12-oz. Coke over all to nearly cover the roast. The slow cooker was set too high and all the Coke evaporated and caramelized on the bottom, but the roast didn’t burn. I added a cup of water and let it sit until we got back from Wal-Mart. Then I took it out and sliced it and we had roast beef sandwiches for supper. It was really tender and delicious. The Macaroni Con Queso recipe called for three kinds of cheese: cream cheese, shredded Cheddar, and shredded Monterey Jack. The macaroni was put in the bottom of a greased baking pan without being cooked first. Then I mixed 2 ½ cups of milk with the cream cheese, added garlic salt, basil, and pepper and poured that over the macaroni. I stirred in a can of drained, diced tomatoes and ½ cup each of the shredded cheeses. I covered it tightly and baked it at 350 degrees for 30 minutes, then stirred it and sprinkled another ½ cup each of the shredded cheeses on top. I then baked it, uncovered, for 45 more minutes. The recipe had said for 30 more minutes, but our oven may bake cooler than some because the macaroni wasn’t done at 30 minutes.
I called Wal-Mart Pharmacy this morning and ordered refills of my prescriptions. This afternoon Phoebe and I went to Wal-Mart and I picked them up and also bought some peanut butter, facial tissues, and kitchen trash bags.

Exodus 16, Psalm 66, Luke 20.
The second day of the rummage sale wasn't as busy as yesterday, but we did okay.
I went to the beauty shop this afternoon.
We ate supper at Snoga's tonight. I had a ham poor boy sandwich.

Exodus 15, Psalm 65, Luke 19
Today and tomorrow the church where I work is having a rummage sale.
It went really well today and they sold quite a lot. It will run again tomorrow. Usually the second day isn't nearly as good as the first. It will be interesting to see how it goes.
One of the ladies brought chicken salad, tuna salad, and pimiento cheese sandwiches for the workers. Others brought desserts: chocolate cake, brownies, chocolate covered Chinese noodles, pineapple coffeecake and orange coffeecake. Phoebe brought the pineapple coffeecake.
I made copies of the March newsletters today and will mail some out tomorrow.
I sent in my car/truck insurance payment today; also the home insurance and the insurance on the home appliances/ac/heater/etc.

Exodus 13, Psalm 63, Luke 17
Gloria emailed Sis that Aunt Charlotte died about 2:30 this morning.
I talked to Fred and Seth on LogitechVid this afternoon.
It was pretty warm out today. After I got home from work I put the potted plants back outside. I've had them in the garage for 2 or 3 weeks, but no freezes are predicted for the next week. Maybe we won't get any more now.

Exodus 12, Psalm 62, Luke 16
I took a turkey & cheese sandwich to work today for my lunch.
After work today I went to the grocery store and paid the church's gas/electric bills. Today was the due date and if not paid today, we would have to have paid late fees on each of them.
I bought a shredder for the church that had been donated for the rummage sale. It is only a personal size, but should be fine for small amounts of shredding.
We talked to Fred this evening. He hasn't been feeling well today.
