Zoom Saturday

I sort of had a slow start to the morning...but finally got going after I had breakfast. I made preparations to stew a chicken that I got at the store yesterday. It was finished cooking just before it was time for my bookclub zoom meeting. That was good timing as I was able to put it on a plate and tent it with foil so it could cool while I was zooming. We had a good discussion this morning. My Cottey roommate joined us this morning. It was great getting to see her. We texted a little with each other after the Zoom meeting. After the Zoom meeting, I got the chicken cut off the bone. Then I put all the bones back in the stock and simmered it for three hours more. The stock has cooled down enough to put it in the refrigerator to chill so I can defat it before I freeze it...that job is done for today...well, some of the dishes still remain. I have the stock pot soaking. While the stock simmered, I completed my notes for tomorrow's Sunday School lesson and have printed it off. I have a stack of things to take with me for the lesson tomorrow...so I think that the lesson can be "put to bed" until I share it in the morning. Once the dishwasher is running, I think that I will stitch. I veered away from stitching for the last couple of days so I had best get back to it...time is moving along till Christmas...and, if I don't get cracking, my plan to have all the ornaments stitched early this year so I won't be rushed making them into ornaments. Update on Joy, she continues to improve slowly. She actually did a craft project...wove some pot holders today...a good sign. Joy loves to do crafty things! Glad to see her doing something with her hands. To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
