I added a counter to this site because Cathy was kind enough to tell me how to do it. Thank you Cathy! The problem with counting, is that you must begin at 1. Now I will know if anyone ever really visits my site.
This could be depressing. Cathy has some 30,000+, and I have 1. That'll teach me to compare myself to others!
So, I learned something kind of interesting. Jesus coined a couple of unique words during His ministry years. Did you know that? One is the word "hypocrite." His usage of this word is the first recorded, I am told. Then He came up with a phrase to apply to His disciples, "Little-faiths." I love that Jesus liked words, and that He used them creatively. It validates my own obsession with language.
KiKi and I had a wonderful time Friday night. She and I stayed up too late and talked a ton. We were lazy all day Saturday; as lazy as can be. I had the best time with her. She is growing and learning, and I was refreshed by her company.
Saturday night I went to the airport to collect my friend Chuck. I forced him at gunpoint to buy me dinner. He has, bar-none, the best taste in restaurants of anyone on this planet. Plus he gets the best service in the world. If you ever can get him to take you out to eat, don't miss the opportunity.
Brittney's momma and sister came over to sit with her for me so that I could go out. It was inordinately fun because I haven't been out in public, in the evening, and with grownups for ages.
KiKi and I caught the ferry together Saturday evening, and there was a bluegrass band jamming for all to see. Fabulous music! They played for our entire ride over. That was pretty cool. Riding the ferry is one of my favorite things to do, anyway. Adding a live band just made is all that much better.
KiKi had me follow her all the way to the airport, so that I wouldn't get lost. And while she is very sweet to do that for me....she didn't really know how to get there. The result was comical. We drove all around the industrial district of Seattle, at risk of a gang attack at any moment. Our first goal was to fill her empty fuel tank. There are NO gas stations in the entire industrial area of Seattle. Incidentally, you can navigate a generous U-turn across 5 lanes of traffic, if you're fast enough. Who knew?
I got to the airport with time to spare. Once we found the correct freeway, it was a simple matter.
This morning the boys and I took Brittney to church. Church was fine. I guess. I prefer church that is amazing. The only way to have that, is to go to church where food is involved, and people you really love are there, and you are needed. This is why it's so hard for me to visit a church.
Now there is most assuredly a nap in my future. Gosh, I am tired!

Now you are up to 6! Last week at church someone brought a bowl of the biggest, sweetest blueberries you ever saw (or ate). I spent too much time in the kitchen. Although we are not technically a house church, we are a church that meets in a house, so... Like the blog, definitely.
And now you have seven. Soon you'll be up to 1,000,000. I can feel it in my bones.
Ah - the Sunday nap. I had one myself today. Isn't it lovely to nap? I heard on the radio the other day that people who nap for 30 minutes 3 days a week are 37% less likely to die of heart-related causes. Isn't that good news? Good news indeed.
Happy Sunday, friend.
And is it just me, or does Jim look just like Forrest Gump?
Gosh, you busted me. I don't want to put my real picture up there, it might frighten someone! I live in Alabama, see, and Forrest is like our Patron Saint or something! And that's all I have to say about that...
