Good Monday morning to the entire MMC community. Another long week filled to the brim with work & chores (plus a little bit of sleep in between). Trying to get everything done last week and in these first couple of days and then I am taking Connie (my wife and better half) to Idaho and visit with her parents for a week. I know it can be tough on her realizing that not only are they a few states away, but both are in their mid eighties. I try to make this trip every year, to make sure she does not feel regret about not visiting when the unfortunate time will arrive. But we will dwell on that when the time comes, for now we can celebrate being together. The lawn is starting to come along, but I will wait to reseed till I get back to ensure it is watered correctly. I do have to re-pot some Asian Lilies. I am not much of a gardener and got "one" originally so I would not have to plant them every year. I was not aware that they had babies and soon the one plant would grow into ten plants. Oh well.
Church visits are going well. It is interesting to see how varied the structure (for lack of a better word) is for each service in the individual churches. The one thing that I have taken note of is how many prefer their music in a contemporary style, with electric guitars, organs and drums. I don't really mind the style too much. It does have a negative effect on me when it resembles a rock concert and my ears are ringing from the volume (this has only happened on two occasions thus far). However, the sermons for the most part have been very good and demonstrates the unity that is still deep inside each member of the Christian Community. Still a long way to go before the year ends and many more Houses of Worship to visit.
Other than that, everything here is going fairly well. Hopefully after this little trip, things will quiet down a hair and I can find time to get back online more often. I do miss our daily greetings, updates and happenings in the lives of our group.
Have a
Magical Monday all...
