Happy Resurrection Sunday!!!

Hunnee cares more about clothes than I do. He planned what he was going to wear. We have a couple of favorite suits and because he is colorblind we have some stories to go with them. He wore his celery green because it is a spring suit and because his sister and his daughters refer to it as an Easter egg suit. I wore a rather mauve-ish deal that I bought in Florida over Christmas break on the trip where I had the really bad case of hives.

We just don't get into the egg and rabbit stuff. At my church and others we celebrate Christ's saving us through his sacrifice and resurrection. So we don't go out and buy new "Easter clothes" and the like. Besides being off focus for the occasion it's just silly.

I made a special dessert and kept one for home which Hunnee and my baby dug into. He has been having trouble with swollen feet and ankles which he doesn't want to believe is about ingesting too much salt. He loves his salt and will sprinkle it over his plate before he even tastes it. Before he moved in Baby and I kept a carton of salt in the pantry for about two years. He demolished it in about a month. He has to see a doctor next week, who will tell him the same thing and charge him for it. Anyway, he had to wear loafers with his celery Easter egg suit because his feet won't fit into anything else but house slippers.

We went to the five o'clock sunrise service and he went back for the regular 11:00AM service which just wore him out. I packed my deserts up for my mother's house and we went over to have a very nice family time. My mother makes the best dressing--which we've trained Hunnee to call it rather than stuffing--which is a northern term. Whenever it's called stuffing, it doesn't taste as good. Believe me.

I made Hunnee prop his feet up after dinner. He said he feels like he has the Pillsbury Dough boy's feet. My sister said it looks like he's walking on marshmallows with toes.

We were talking about Christ's sacrifice and the miracle of His resurrection and why The Ten Commandments with Charleton Heston comes on every year at this time. Hunnee explained to my sister about its timing with Passover. Passover was what the last Supper was to be a feast for thus the two events are celebrated at the same time of year. The dialogue and acting from those big Cecile B. de Mille movies of that era can sometimes be humorous. There's the one scene where Moses is brought in as a prisoner and Charleton Heston's hands are wrapped behind his back on a stick and chained together. His awash in makeup that makes him look dirty, sweaty and suntanned. He's holding his stomach in for the camera.

I texted "Happy Resurrection Day" messages to some friends and relatives. My cousin Donna called from Virgina Beach.

We went home, the three of us, full as ticks. Mr. Bob Buttons was happy to see us.He went to sleep on my daughter's chair.
