Opening Day

It is so good to have a venue by which to communicate and express. Because it appears that I pushed a little too hard yestserday and now I have no voice--not even a squeak. Whispers are hard and go mostly unheard when trying to use the phone. ARGH. SO frustrating. Not to mention I am not amused that I am still down for the count. ARGH again....

Yesterday's service seemed different to me. Not sure if it was vecause of my health and state of mind, or if there was a shift. Anyone out there have any feedback?


Glad it didn't rain so it is not so cold. Poor Sam--he is patient but doesn't understand why Mom is not up and walking him all over town. About noon, I took him for a short walk 7-8 blocks to the post office for his R & R. Now if I could only get him a bath-his dry skin is making us both crazy while he scratches and thumps. he had the best day yesterday at church. the happiest I have seen him. Herding people and chairs; running around the lawn, grinning and playing. Even snitching food after service. Who does he think he is? A dog???

The highlight for me being home is that today is Opening Day for the Padres. I know some of our fellow church members are actaully attending the game. Waaaaaah. Yet, I will get better close ups from home. And this will be the first game(of many) that Sam and I have watched and I will see if he is baseball fan or not. ( I now have visions of the Padres costumes I can put him in for Petco photos for the big screen during games). So we will KNOW together that the rain will not arrive until waaaaay after the game.

Guess I have some more inner listening to do.

be well

Well, if you think the only ones listening are the ones who comment, guess I should. I wouldn't want to be tagged as a "lurker", but there I am. The mood was subdued in church yesterday, partly because of the low attendance, your somewhat low energy, and some of the info shared. I did not feel a major shift, myself. I felt peace. LW
