Passover and New Mower

Every year during Lent Pastor Andy of the church I attend always does something different in his teaching.  One year he did the Stations of the Cross (which the Nazarene Church normally does not do).  It was awesome and moving.  It was very different from the Catholic Church.  The concept was the same, just presented differently.  I don’t know what he did last year because I was in Ohio.
 

This year he made arrangements for a Rabbi to come and explain the Passover.  It was extremely interesting because I knew nothing about what the foods, etc. represented.  We did not eat a meal, but the items they had before and after a meal were presented and explained along with the prayers and some of the rituals.  The Rabbi also explained when they believe the Passover meal took place and where.  I am glad I attended, and I learned a lot.

 

I mentioned previously that when I was mowing the grass last time the belt came off and the mower quit working.  Kevin got on line to buy the parts to fix the mower and by the time he finished it would cost as much to repair it as to buy a new one.  So, you guessed it, I bought a new mower yesterday (Friday).  I will probably be mowing grass later in the week so I will get to use the new one.  Kevin is going to take the deck off the old one, and we will use it for transportation around the property and to tow the cart. 

 

I haven’t been watching very many basketball games this year.  Basketball is not real popular here in this area so I have no one to talked with about the games.  I printed a bracket just to keep track of who is playing and when.  I did watch UC win.  Didn’t think they looked too good.  Not sure they can beat Kentucky.  (It is now Sunday and UC did not beat Kentucky)

 

Both of my Bradford Pear trees are in full bloom and look beautiful.  They are slow growing, but every year they look better.

 

I now have a new “problem” with Miss Penny.  She is going thru the chewing stage.  This is so much fun.  I have had to wrap a few things in plastic so she doesn’t ruin them. This has really confused her.  She won’t chew on her toys.  Loves my books and bookmarks.  I keep telling myself that this too shall pass. J

 

I finally took the time to do my taxes.  They are now finished and will go in the mail tomorrow.
