Art museum

We went to the Fenimore art museum this morning, as it was rainy.  The Native American exhibit was amazing. Leather fringe, porcupine quills, silver, turquoise, birch bark used to make their craft. That blue velvet and white beaded bird is about 6 inches long + was for sale in the gift shop for $349.  

Jan Brett wrote Hedgie's Surpise. This is in the children's activity room at the museum.  Hedgie is one of our favorite characters from her books.

There was Liturgy followed by blessing of water for Mid-Pentecost yesterday.

I baked cookies for a friend, whose baby will be baptised Saturday morning!

I went to urgent care to have this rash checked out.  The woman said it could be a spider bite.  My mother said it may be cellulitis.  That starts with a wound of some sort, and it could've started with a bug bite.  I'm not sure about taking antibiotics, as it is hard on my body.  I am rinsing it with Domeboro, applying an antibiotic ointment called bacitracin, taking benadryl and prednisone.  I also have an oral antibiotic pill that I may start.  If these other treatments help, then there's no need.  It may get worse, though.

Ferdinand is 2 and a half months old now.  This week, one of our bunnies died and also the rooster.  He was just too aggressive and attacked the children too many times.  

My sister and her family are coming from Canada tonight!  My mother will be here tomorrow.  In a few days, it will be 7 years since he passed and we'll have a memorial service at my father's grave.

I just put together a box for our 18 year old daughter, Olivia, who will be 19 in a week and a half.  I got her gold birthday candles, gold and silver Sharpie markers, a clay face mask packet, Bob's Red Mill granola bars, Ghirardelli caramel chocolates and socks.
