Good Friday

The children did not know that I was going to give them this day off, so yesterday they decided to do some double work in order to get this day off.  Hahahaha!   The only stipulation was that we were to sit down together and read through all the gospels on the account of Jesus' crucifixion.   I think they really enjoyed this.  While reading, I began questioning the kids.  I want them to understand and know about what Jesus did for all!!   

Bill was busy starting our taxes.  I say starting because he needs to make some phone calls about some option that JP Morgan exercised and we did not recall happened.  Ohhhh the joys of taxes.  I am so thankful he does them.  When he could no longer continue he was busy getting the songs ready for this evening for our home fellowship meeting.   As he is a really good guitar player, he was asked to lead worship for one of the gatherings.  It was not our usual place to gather so it was nice to meet new families and others from our new home church.   The children were having fun downstairs in the basement while we were singing and reading.  

Before we went out to the home fellowship we had an appointment at the Apple store in Mount Laurel - about an hour away from us.   Our iMac has been having some issues.  This issue was supposed to have been resolved awhile ago.  I am not a happy camper.  Let me back up to say that I love all things Apple.   Have been a fan since 2001. However, I don't like when they don't fix my stuff!!!!!   So we book the reservation and on our way down we pit stop at Trader Joe's  - my most favorite place to go.   I was a tad bit disappointed with this visit as they were all out of the chocolate chip granola bars that my kids just love, love, love.   This stop put us behind schedule for our appointment and of course they had to cancel it and take someone else.  I get that what I don't understand is why they say you are "booking" a time "period" and not let you know that if you are more than 15 minutes late, you will have to rebook.   (Don't tell me I have a time slot and then not keep my appointment open the entire time!!!  Are you with me?!)  What urks me most, is that we did this months ago to get this problem fixed and now I have to go all over again.  This is where I miss Ohio.  The Easton store is sooooo nice and fun and it is a great place to hang out while your waiting for you time slot.  I digress... Needless to say, our computer was not fixed!   Urgh!  

We arrived back home in time for our dinner that was awaiting us in the crockpot.  Love the crockpot meals!!!  Just meatball sandwiches tonight.  On my favorite roll by Italian People's Bakery.  YUM! YUM! YUM!   Then it was off to home fellowship - which you read about already.
