NYC on Wednesday

I went to Michael's craft store and got a few things, 

discount priced ribbon, washi tape, a watercolour brush, 

ink and calligraphy pens and two heavy paper art books. 

We went to my favourite quiet diner for a quick snack.

Went to a Mexican (felt Spanish in decor) restaurant; the food was 

decent but the space was loud and we could hear others much to easily;

the ferry took a lot longer than we anticipated and I think, 

based on the poor sleep we had after this, it was all a bit

stressful... yesterday was a huge rest day to recover

and today we went out and tried out new chromebooks as my 

chromebook (bought in 2014) was not working unless plugged in;

the battery seemed completely shot.

So I have a new chromebook now; I am trying it out for a week

to be sure it works well; it has a much bigger screen and is nice this way.

I've realized that my blog (not on cell/mobile but on chromebook at least)

looks small in font to me, I am always making it a bigger size to see it 

better and am wondering if I should be making the font bigger

or change the format. 

I guess I will have to experiment at some point about this.

However, if you find the actual typeface/words you are reading to be 

on the small size, let me know and I will try to change that.

Well. 

This has been a strange week. 

I felt in ways that God had given me an encouraging Sunday to 

gird me up for it.

I can't write everything about it but I felt a lot of worry

about a few things and was not sure where the unbloggable was going; for

a bit I was afraid that things were actually getting even worse than I had

foreseen but today was better and I am hoping that we will have some progress

in a positive direction next week.

***

On another note, while I don't feel I can write about it here on my blog yet,

I have something happy I am looking forward to 

in my extended family and I am going to MI in July for this

and I am greatly looking forward to being home. 

***

I don't, however, know how much I will be able to blog

then so if I have silences here, don't worry, I am merely busy

seeing and being with family!

And speaking of family, I have some coming to visit here in NJ

next week and so if I don't write next week, that just means I am 

extra busy with the nieces and having a trip into NYC, a tea time with them,

game playing and talking and the like.

Meanwhile, we watched a Walton's episode this evening

that was enjoyable and we had a vegan ice cream cone, 

fruit salad, green salad and simple summer pleasures... 

of which we thank God!
