Up at 2:58. Something has got to change, I can't feel guilty for not getting up at 2:30. I made a new schedule, starting at 4 instead of 3.
I need to be in bed buy 8:30 on a normal day.
James left around 8 for the valley. He is meeting Ravi Gupta, who is a friend of Dr. Memon, about finishing his home. He took a contract with him. I have mixed feelings about him taking this job but he assured me he has prayed about it and feels good.
I started Cindy Brown's birthday cake just about the same time that James left. I am making Courtney Rich's Cream Danish cake. The cake, frosting and filling have cream cheese in them. Cindy says they love cheesecake. I also made a strawberry compote. I started at 8:00 and then finished around 1:30. I made two layers of cake and then had to cut each one of them in half and put cream cheese filling in between them.
At 1:30 I put the cake in my cake carrier and headed east on the 60 to the turn off to Cindy's. It's about 11 miles from the Vernon turn off.
I had to wait about ten minutes for roadwork. When I got to the turnoff I could see a car parked at the side of the road and I assumed it was Cindy. I was right. She had her cute teenaged granddaughter Reagan with her. She probably brought her to hold the cake. Good idea. I wish I would have had someone to hold it. It got a crack in it and I was afraid it would fall apart before Cindy got it home. I checked and she said it did not. She put it in the fridge and this evening she said she is going to share it with her family. They are going out to eat around 4.
I am exhausted but before resting I go in and clean my dirty kitchen. While I was working this morning I listened to Susan Black on "Follow Him." I finished this afternoon.
Before resting I ate some soup and read from my book, "Look Unto Christ in Every Hour." After resting I did some walking, determined to get my 10,000 steps.
James got home around 6:30. I am so grateful he made it home safely. It is always a relief.
No only was today Cindy Brown's birthday it was also Vickie's and Scarlett's. I missed going to lunch with my brothers and their wives because I was committed to make Cindy's cake. I texted Vickie and told her I was sorry. I hope she understood.
Scarlett loved her birthday presents, the fox purse and the earrings.
We were in bed before 9 tonight.
