This and That 2

Coach (aka as Terry) tried to fix the washing machine today but looks like we will be needing a new one. So will be calling the landlords. I was so wishing I could use it when I took the sheep's skin I have been working on out of the bag and it stunk so bad I nearly choked! I took it outside and hosed it down well and will be hanging it up to dry for a bit. I need to oil the skin tomorrow and then it is the pulling and working the leather to get it to stay soft and not shrink while it drys. Doing it according to this site: http://www.rivercottage.net/forum/ask/processing-and-other-crafts/25881how-to-curetaw-a-sheepskin/ I have had to freeze it a few times as not enough time to work it. Now I am ready and it stinks as we had it left out for a couple of days. Not a smart move in this warm weather. OH, will keep at it and hope for the best. I want to use it for the Journey to Bethlehem live Nativity I am taking part in at Family of Christ Church. I will post more on that closer to the date.

I am so itching to bake something but do not want any tempting baked goods around the house while we are doing the paleo diet. I have also had some serious carb cravings today too, First ones really since starting a week ago. I really want an ice cream cone. Might have to have a little bit of yogurt tomorrow if this keeps up. Been pretty much 95% paleo and 5% not quite Paleo (OK, I sunk 16 M n M's). Not bad I think considering what a sugar addict I am. I do love to bake and will have to find someone to bless with some of it.

I am itching all over with a good case of poison oak or ivy, Doctor was not sure which it is. On Prednasone and have a cream to put on it.

We will be heading to church in the morning, think we will go to Solid Rock here in Anoka.

Going to do lots of cleaning this week as I have my friend and her daughter coming next week for couple of weeks. I am so excited!

Off to get a salad.
