TIME WITH THE TWINS AND PAPER!

I finished DECEPTION POINT, again. (2nd time I've read it.) I did get a text from Klynn today and she said she was almost done and she was really liking it. I was glad to hear that. I told her that I wished the author had left out the bad language and a few scenarios but that I really liked the entrigue. She told me that is why she likes Joel Rosenberg's books. Gonna have to start looking for them now.  We went over to Mom's on Thursday and Tony helped Mom and Diane finish this puzzle. Then Diane and Deb were making sourdough bread. It takes stretching and kneading every 30 minutes four times before letting it rest and raise for 10 to 12 hours. Then it's kept in the fridge overnight and cooked the following day. They had made a loaf on Wednesday too so we had some soup  and bread for lunch. Diane printed me off the recipe.

The puzzle is pretty cool.  After we ate, we played games for a couple of hours and then we watched "THE CLIENT" movie. It had been a long time since we watched it so it was all new again. lol We went home around 9PM and then after the gym on Friday, we stopped by to say goodbye to the twins. They left around 1 in the afternoon. Tony and I went to bed early on Friday and we worked our temple shift Saturday morning. When we got in our car to leave and the car engine light came on. We stopped at a place to have it checked and thy said it was our battery. We then went to Les Schwab and they said it was under warranty and they would replace it free of charge. So, we had to go home, get the truck, drive the car back to Les Schwab to leave it.  We then went to get some lunch and then to Costco for a prescription and to pick up a salad for Sunday. Then back to pick up the car. I works great and the light is off. YAY!  Sunday, after church, I drove Lynn home to get her ice-cream and then we went to our house and I made the Asian chicken salad and sourdough toast. After we ate, we watched
COME FOLLOW UP 
and then at  3:30, I had to go to a Stake Relief Society meeting. After the meeting, I went to see Jill and give her some Ginger Shot. She has been suffering with a sinus infection and I told her to try it. When I got home, Tony and Lynn were watching Jeff Allen. He's a great comedian but Lynn said she wanted to go home. He was giving her a headache. lol Monday morning, we went to the gym. Walked our 4 miles and then came home. Tony had a dentist appointment and then he took Lynn to a dermatology appointment. He also had to take her to VERIZON because she opened up a bunch of apps AGAIN, and got her phone messed up ...poor Tony! lol
I decided to give the sourdough bread a try....

I got all the kneading done and now it sits in a glass bowl for 10 hours and then I'll put it in the fridge and bake it tomorrow after our temple day. Sure hope it turns out!

I had some time in-between kneading every 30 minutes so I did some die cutting and stamping and put some boy cads together.  I find so much enjoyment working with paper. lol
My stash is getting depleted so I need to replenish!

Not my favorite but good for birthdays I forgot.
Well, the bread is in the cast iron pot and sitting on the back step because I don't have room in the fridge. Will bake it after I get home tomorrow from the temple.
