I have been thinking lately about how naïve people can be when it comes their thinking they can get away with things. It is surprising to me how many people get caught doing stuff when they think no one would ever find out when, in fact, it is blatantly obvious they would get caught. There […] We had another meal at my church last night. We try to do a meal after our Saturday service at least once a quarter (four times a year). This meal was in honor of St. Patrick’s Day so we served corned beef, cabbage, potatoes, carrots, turnips and Irish soda bread. We also had shamrock cookies, […] I just sat down about 20 minutes ago to check my e-mail. Should have been a 10 second task. Had one e-mail, an ad from Bugaboo Creek, I deleted it (not planning on going there soon enough to take advantage of the coupons) and that should have been it. But, instead of […] Just a quick note to mention that I have a new neighbor in the apartment above mine. For those of you who have read previous postings in my blog, you know that the previous tenant of that apartment was a nightmare. Loud, obnoxious, inconsiderate, etc. So I was a little nervous when I saw someone […] I have decided that having fresh flowers in my living room make me happy. I usually only have fresh flowers after I put flowers on the altar at church. That only happens four times a year…the anniversary of my dad’s death, the anniversary of my mom’s death, my dad’s birthday and my mom’s birthday. It […] Little example of God’s mysterious ways: My neighbor owns a boat and goes fishing frequently during the summer on the ocean. Upon his return from his fishing trips, he would clean his catch and then share it with me. Cleaned, de-boned fillets. Not every time he went fishing but frequently. Now, I’m not a big […] I am sitting at church cooking the beans for the bean supper tonight. Pretty lonely task since only one person is needed to watch the beans and stir them. I already have two pies made (apple and coconut cream). I was going to make a third pie but the can of pumpkin I found in […] So it is Friday. End of another week. Just a few thoughts…. – On NBC Nightly News, they showed an animation of the guy who tried to shoot up the Pentagon. Before they showed the animation, they showed a posting he did on-line. This guy was of European descent (i.e. white) and was clean shaven […] We had a very interesting Bible Class last night. We started discussing what we thought heaven would be like. The usual things came up…golden roads, marble walls, jewels everywhere…all the earthly things that we value and think of as riches. But I’m not so sure that is what heaven is or that […] Power was finally restored at work today! It only took 4 1/2 days. During the big storm last Thursday night, a tree fell and landed on our power lines. It didn’t take them down but it disrupted the power enough that we had to use our generator. Unfortunately, our generator was bought for our old […] |
