We had a most beautiful day.

Larry:  Love your great grandchild and the name will not matter one little bit.  They must have a reason for the name and when you find out I am sure it will make a lot sense.

Marilyn: Enjoy your vacation.

Janet:  I do have lots of notes for doing things on the computer. I use the help but find it is too time consuming.  The help I contact lots of times is Sue our daughter.

I baked a batch of banana muffins took a couple to auntie and after having a couple our selves they are almost gone. Sounds like a lot of eating but I made only ten enough to fill an 8x8 pan if I had made a cake.

Mel met Doug at Bass Pro ( a sport store )  which allowed me enough time to quickly go through several photo albums for pictures, I guess I did not tell anyone that Sue is having a surprise BD party for him it will be the big 70.

Time for me to relax.       

Hi, friends, I'm almost too tired to talk tonight. Did some special spot cleaning at the church & then walked around a small Dollar Store shopping for probably 45 min. So, it's rest tonight.

They're warning of 80% rain for tomorrow, with TONS of it on Monday, thus another flood caution is out, and then we're supposed to get rain again Tues. I fear for those near our rivers and even some of our creeks and the lakes. The Corps of Engineers has already let some water out of 4 dams around this area to try to prevent the 500-year flood catastrophe of last Mothers' Day here in TN.

Likely, the little one will decide to change his name legally later in life. He should be such a sweetie when you get to see him!

Larry, I think the turnaround on the new glasses will be about a week. Until then, I'll kind-of feel my way through.

Well the birthday party is over.  All went well, and The kids had fun.

I am off to bed hopefully to sleep tonight.

Hi, friends, it's been a night without much sleep, so I came to the computer to rest a bit. I receive the daily devotional thoughts sent out by Reflecting God (from WordAction). Here's what the one just received says about one of the verses in my favorite scripture:

"Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail" (Lam. 3:22). God promises never to leave nor forsake us. His stability is continual. We have so many reasons to worship and praise God! Yes, worship! That's what God desires! Every Sabbath, every day, let's praise and worship our Lord!

"Oh, Lord, we praise you for your immense love and your faithfulness. We are comforted that you never leave us nor fail us. Your works are so great, and your thoughts are so profound that our hearts overflow with song! We rejoice in you and honor you.

"It is true that evildoers cross our paths and try to hinder us. But with you, Lord, we are victorious!

"We praise you, O God, our stable rock! You are only good! Praise your Name!" Amen.

Hi everyone on a beautiful sunny Georgia morning.  Yesterday was close to a perfect day here weather-wise. 

Today is communion Sunday for this month at our services.  The choir is singing a new piece for us as the anthem.  I believe is called "Blest Are We" or something similar.  Then we will find somewhere to have lunch and then have a restful afternoon and evening.  Our daughter just called and said she is attending her church service this morning as they are doing a groudbreaking to make her church more handicapped accessible.  She has a most difficult time getting her wheelchair inside the santuary and has to have help as the ramp is so steep.  We have been there and the church is built on a hill and the front has a lot of steps and the side entrance is where the ramps are and they are not easy to get to.  She is looking forward to the project being done so she can attend more often.  It is a long bus ride for her (over and hour) each way and she hasn't been attending regularly.  She has not been feeling very well due to constant pain.

Ruth Ann, it looks like the rainy weather will stop about the North Georgia line today.  We may get some tomorrow and Tuesday but not like last week.

I learned sometime ago to keep my mouth shut when it isn't my business.  I will just refer to my new great grandson as Hawk and try to forget the atrocious middle name.  I knew some months ago they were thinking of using the name they gave him but had hoped that sanity might intervene before he was born and they would choose something else.  Her other children are named Cobra and Shelby after the Ford autos and the third child is named Romero after a horror movie director.  I don't think Goth is an issue here.  I am just thankful the child and mother are both healthy and that the pregnancy is over for her. 

Ruth, we have the Bass Pro Shop close by and it is really a big store.  I know they started in Springfield, Missouri.  I have been in one once in my life but am not a sportsman so they really don't interest me.

Bonesy, sounds like you are really enjoying your Road Knights work.  I am sure you will have some interesting experiences to reflect back on when it is over.  My wife doesn't share Judy's desire to mow the lawn.  I don't know that she ever did it. 

Marilyn, it wouldn't have had any impact to say anything on the grandchild's name as we have no influence on the parents.  Know you will be counting down the days until that vacation starts.

Etta Sue, I wouldn't think there would be much difference in the the later versus the earlier version of the dictionary.  One of the features I really enjoy with the ebook readers is the ability to press on a word you don't know the meaning of and it will bring up a dictionary showing that word.  I have used it a few times already.  Your idea on the audio recorder sounds like a wise one and they have them that are very small and you no longer have to deal with tapes but they use a memory chip.

Jeanne, sure you must be looking forward to some warmer weather.  At least the days are warming up for you even if you still have a freeze at night. 

Hope this is a nice and worshipful Sunday for you all.

Larry I love mowing.  This was something I rarely had to be asked to do as a teen at home.  My kids love mowing as well as I always did the mowing, they had to fight to get the mower.

This is the Lord's day.  The day that the Lord has made.  Let us rejoice and be glad in it!! 

We had Lords Supper last week Easter Sunday.  So this week will not be communion.  Must run and finish getting ready.

I couldn't get on CP before church.  Now it is fine. 

We have communion every Sunday.  I missed it one Sunday when I was running the projector.  Seemed that something was missing all week. 

As we were leaving church today, I marveled at how many little children we are getting in our church again.  Love it!  For awhile you could count all of them on your two hands. 

Today I discovered that the dictionary I have had on Droid all along is audio, also.  So I will try both apps for awhile and delete the one I don't like as much.

Today we went to my favorite restaurant for lunch....King Chef.  I have been going down the lunch menu and the spicy ones, so today I had Yui Shan Scallops.  Never had scallops before.  Pretty good!  One more time and I can start the list over!!

Now I think I will opt for a nap and this evening is Small Groups. 

Time to start a new week HERE.
