Back Home

We're back home after a busy productive weekend helping at a church retreat. It's kind of ironic that we would be asked to help on this type retreat [it is sponsored by several big main line denominations] as we are avid and dedicated house church proponents....but these folks were in a bind for a guitarist and they made a place for me to help in the background so Hutch and I got to go together.

As always with these type retreats, I returned home very tired, but glad I went.

There were loads of things waiting for me to do at home. Cleaning is very high on the list as is laundry. So that's kind of what I'm focused on today. My e-mail is acting funny so I'll need to check that out and get it back up to speed as well.

I need to get to the post office today or tomorrow and mail Aunt Myrt's birthday box. I pulled together 7 little gifts with cards so that I could send the box early and she could open one a day the week before her big day. She is rightfully very excited about celebrating her 99th birthday Oct 31st.

It is really cold here, for the South. We broke low records for some parts of the state this moring. And when we got home last night we had to turn on the heat for the first time this year.

Well, I'll try to get back here to blog later in the day. I need to get back to being a good steward on the homefront.
