Panda's new do

When Dan was here for Erik's birthday he showed us pictures of his one-eyed pirate cat. His cat had an eye infection and it had to be removed. Panda has had a bad eye for a few months and we just assumed it was cataracts since he is old. We took him to the vet and it turned out he had a mild infection - nothing serious. But while we were there, we asked them to shave him since he has had difficulty grooming himself. Again, he is old (much like my husband!). Panda looks hilarious now but is actually much happier. He comes out a lot  more and is more interactive with us. He loves his new do!

 We've been really busy with Girl Scouts lately. I've had a meeting every week with one troop or another and this upcoming weekend we are going to Mansfield for a Girl scout drawing workshop. It's been a great year for the girls and we are on track to earn the bronze award for Jenna's troop.
Cute animal at Girl Scout Thinking day - I thought he was super cute!
 Our church had a fun activity this weekend called "Guess who's coming to dinner?". We hosted dinner and didn't know who would come or what they would bring. We just made the main dish and everyone else brought dessert and salad. I loved it! This is the group who came to our house.

 The most important event this weekend was pi day! Saturday was March 14, 2015. I love pi day and we are required to celebrate every year. The Masts, Brubakers, and Stoutenburgs all came over to eat round food. We had deviled eggs, orange slices, cheeseball with round crackers, guacamole with round chips, donatos pizza, and pies. The pies were Kentucky bourbon pie, key lime pie, chocolate peanut butter, and cheesecake. Yum! I ate 3.14 slices of pie too.

Jenna and her blessings paper
 Jenna has been asking for approximately a million years for her own pet. We are planning on getting a hamster for her in a few weeks assuming she does her chores. She is so thankful though. Look at this sheet of blessings she made. It is so precious!

In other news:

  • I've finished a lot of the books I was reading: City of Stairs, Firefight, Revenge of the Witch, Blood of Olympus, etc. So I'm waiting for the next book we will read with our book club
  • Lately I've changed my workout schedule. I always did a body blitz (weights) class on Tuesday, spinning on Wed, elliptical on Friday and zumba on Saturday. But now I've changed and am doing yoga on Tuesday instead. I love yoga. I always feel so good afterwards. I just hope it is just as good a workout. 
  • This session I'm teaching a hardware class on onsite Monday nights. I found out the linux server I used before is no longer available. So I set up my raspberry pi as a linux server for the students to login to. I've had this raspberry pi for about a year and am finally putting it to use!
  • I gave up pinterest for lent and it has been difficult since I love looking at pinterest. Of course it was taking up too much of my time so this is much better.

I'm glad he got to keep his eye.
Is that one fella your pastor? He looks like the speaker from when I was there...
