Saturday

What a wonderful day! The weather is delightful. I've been outside this morning pulling weeds from around the flower boxes and sweeping away the leaves that have gathered on the patio. Carla has been romping at the edge of the woods, protecting her turf from the neighborhood cats. She even treed one the other night - kind of a really eerie picture. Tweat has been singing back to the other birds. She and the Robins have been 'talking'.

I've managed to start the sorting process for the upcoming move. Time to decide what goes and what doesn't. There is a bunch of stuff that come with me that's not going to continue on the journey with me. Unnecessary stuff.

Carla has crashed next to the dining room table. I think all the running around has tuckered her out. Here's a trio of pictures of Carla romping around out back.


I had choir practice this afternoon, we ran for two hours. I think that we will be up to singing in the morning. I'm glad that we had the practice today - it surely beat jumping in tomorrow unprepared.

Walt & I are headed out to Mom & Dad's after church for lunch. A last minute get-together. Mom wasn't sure if it was going to work out. I had already planned to just have a small lunch with Walter, but...the family time together will be nice.

Thought For the Day:
“I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: ‘I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept His claim to be God.’ That is the one thing we must not say. A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic—on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg—or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.” — C.S. Lewis
