Worked the butt off today at the house. Scrubbing the charred stone arches over the garage. Then, sifting through a MOUNTAIN of ash with volunteers from other churches, plus a farmer down the road - who has a PhD in Excavation Science. (Man, that dude rocks!!!)
So, a few of the guys found some of my great grandparent's silver. Not the whole set, but a whole bunch of it! And, low and behold...more photo albums! I've got the remains of 3 of them drying out now. So happy about that! =)
Eating today was all at the site....so, for breakfast- I happily munched on chunks of colby-jack, and had black coffee. No donuts, juice, fruit and cookies! For lunch....decided not to have pizza and wings...so just a little more cheese and coffee. I'm surprised at how little food I need sometimes, to keep me going. The local surgeon and his wife and son came over to help sift again. (They're very dear friends of ours.) Afterwards, they invited us out for an authentic Chinese dinner at their friend's restaurant. So, we did that. AMAZING! Before tonight, I'd never had egg-foo-yung without heavy brown gravy; and tons of rice! It was all veggies, in an almost broth-like sauce. I don't think they use MSG, either. So, I felt pretty darn good after that meal. Drank hot green tea (no sugar), and some water.
All in all, it was a great day for getting work done, and notching up a few more victories over the food-monster. Off to beddy-bye now. I am beat. Have a most blessed Sunday everyone!!!
