So Much for Sunday



I got up earlier than I had for a while just so that I could give myself plenty of time to get ready for church this morning. I really wanted to make sure that I could go this morning as they had "Rescue" singing this morning. The young man who started the group about ten years ago grew up at our church and they sing here about once a year.

The group sang for the whole hour and it was really fun to listen to them. They have one member, I think that he is the newest member of the group that makes percussion sounds and he incorporates it into their music. They are an a cappella male quartet so that is the only "instrument" that there is as they sing.

After church our class had a time of sharing and one of the women had just returned from Florida, the Fort Meyer area where she was part of a team that was giving hurricane relief. It is hard to believe that after a couple years they are still in need of relief...it just goes to show just how devastated that area was.


While she was talking about Fort Meyer, I got to thinking about Aunt Max and wonder if her old place was damaged. Not that it would matter at this time, but I had not even thought about it until now.

Aaron and Tami's class was hosting a barbecue after the second service so after SS Kathleen and I went home for about a half hour and I changed into my trade mark shorts and tee shirt. We arrive back just as they were starting to serve the food.

There was some really good chili, a broccoli salad, a pasta salad, pork and beef that they pit barbecued and then watermelon and cookies. Everything tasted really good, but it always does when someone else is cooking and being outdoors does not hurt either.

When we finally got home I changed clothes again and put on my home shorts and tee shirt., I hate to admit it but that was the forth change of clothes for me that day...and the sad part is that is not all that unusual for me.

Then I went downstairs and read the paper and comics. I must have been really tired because I fell asleep shortly after I finished the paper and I did not wake up until 1730. I wish that I could say that I felt rested, but I was really groggy feeling. Since we had a pretty good size meal at the barbecue Kathleen made me a can of gumbo and she had a can of spaghettio's and she also made a couple grilled cheese sandwiches.

I have a feeling that I will be turning in early tonight, so I am just going to say good night now!
