Happy Easter!
This weekend my son was at his dad's house, but he had offered to have him spend Easter with me. I was really excited about that because I wanted to be able to take him to church. So, I picked him up this morning-we went to church and then came home and did his Easter basket. I was a little let down because I had just assumed he would be spending the night with me-but that was not the case. He ended up going back to his dad's house- I think they had something going on this afternoon. That is fine, after all it is his time with him and I'm just glad he got to go to church with me.
So-this afternoon I spent a few hours working on my homework and I took a nap. I also went for a walk. I'll probably be up for half the night, between the nap and the iced tea I had earlier ... Ooops!!!
Last night the movie Passion of the Christ was playing. I have never watched the entire movie, but I watched the last half hour or so of it last night. It was very hard to watch. There is no way for us to comprehend what Jesus did for us, or what he endured. Amazing.
Made some cookies last night-I don't think I mentioned it yesterday. They were a white chocolate chip cookie... there was no white sugar, only brown sugar. They taste very good. I like cookies a little less sweet, so these were really good. I changed a few of the ingredients but nothing that made any difference. I used a different kind of nut, and a different type of chocolate. Otherwise it was all the same, and it worked, so I'm happy.
Cupcake Wars is on TV right now. I'm debating either changing the channel since I've burned myself out on this show, or else getting outside and rollerblading. I used to go rollerblading at night all the time, but I'm not entirely familiar with this neighborhood and I don't know if I am likely to get mugged. Hmm. I used to take my rollerblades to the park and do it there, but I don't live near that park anymore, and I don't feel like driving anywhere right now. I don't know. Maybe I'll go to the gym room instead. That might be a better idea.

Glad you got to spend part of Easter with your son. I forgot his name.
I watched The Passion when it first came out and it really gets to you when you think of it actually happening.
I don't like cupcake shows or baking shows but I do LOVE food shows with different kinds of ethnic cooking. Now, if the ingredients to make them weren't so expensive!
That movie just crushed me.I haven't watched it since I saw it in the theater. Glad you had a good Easter!
It's great that you got to spend some time on Easter with your son. Even if it was a little sad that he had to go, I'm sure it was a special Easter for him getting to spend time with both of his parents. I wish I had time to take a nap somedays. I hardly ever get 8 hours of sleep, so I'm sure I very easily could sleep a good hour in the afternoon on most days if I actually was able to lie down in bed and relax.
I do walk lots though, and I've been running as well ! I'm sure I would have loved those cookies and eaten tons, though I probably shouldn't be thinking about cookies today. I had 4 chocolate chip cookies and one girl-guide cookie today, so no more. I've never seen the Passion of Christ before, but knowing that Mel Gibson has something to do with it, I think whatever message that movie is trying to convey can't come across too well based on his history.
I used to go to the gym with my grandfather, but I haven't been since he passed away. I always prefer outdoor activities. I walk and run so often, but I haven't been rollerblading in years, or even on a bike in a year and a half. You can always switch it up too, one day walk, then run, then rollerblade, then bike, then gym.... a bit of everything ! Anyways, take care and have a wonderful weekend, bye for now.
