snowy night and strange day

 It snowed a ton last night. Trinity was right to cancel church. I couldn't have gotten out of our driveway at 8:15 am, when I leave for Milton.

But the day was strange.

Our neighbor Mark cleared the driveway and our walkways. Bless him.

Bern couldn't take Brigit on her morning walk. Much too slick.

I didn't wake up until 9:30--when church would have started except for the snow.

I took a shower, something I never do on Sunday since I have to go to church.

I had breakfast, which I never do on Sunday, looking forward to the great coffee hours at Trinity.

Everything about today felt strange.

Well, there will be the Super Bowl!

 

No Church tomorrow

Odd not to write a sermon.

Odd to be home on a Sunday I was supposed to work.

But church has been cancelled because of the expected snow.

I will enjoy tomorrow because of the Super Bowl!

 Go Chiefs!!!

I'll wear my Chiefs' hoodie as I watch.

Something to look forward to....

 

Not a bad day

 Very slick this morning. Bern and our dog, Brigit both almost fell down on the ice.

Bern did a good job of breaking up ice.

I went to Waterbury Hospital to get the allergy shots I get every two weeks.

When I got back, most ice was gone and it's been sunny all afternoon.

Not a bad day altogether.

Now we brace for Saturday nights storm....

Cheshire schools are closed tomorrow

It's going to snow tonight.

Things are closing down.

The snow and ice Saturday night might cancel church, I learned today at Bible study.

I hate winter....

 

Almost nothing has gone right....

 Trump has been President for 2 weeks and almost nothing has gone right.

And his co-president, Elon Musk has caused a myriad of problems.

Laws have been broken.

Tradition has been ignored.

Wrong has been done.

And what can we do?

I'm not sure.

Pray, at least.

Get involved in issues.

Add ourselves to the opponents of the administration.

Speak up and speak out.

Resist, resist, resist.

Do all we can.

It's going to be a long and troubling four years....

Alas....

Snow on snow....

The snow in our yard had almost melted away.

But I woke up this morning to another 3 inches or so.

It's been warm today, but not enough to melt the snow.

Snow on snow is not the problem. The problem is the cold weather.

I'm always cold.

Eating dinner tonight with a sweater and a jacket on, I told Bern I was so cold.

She had on a long sleeve shirt and a tee shirt and said she was warm and thinking about taking off the long sleeve shirt.

Maybe something's wrong with me.

I'll ask my doctor about it when I see her.

 

Reading my last blog...

I realized I left out all the pictures of my children and grand-children.

Two kids and four grand-kids take up a lot of pictures.

Two of the grand-kids will be going to college next year.

Another is 15 and another is 8.

Unbelievable, all of them.

I love them so.

Bern does facebook with the youngest 3 times a week.

I often peak in and am always greeted warmly.

Life has been long for me (thank God!) and I have been so very, very blessed for such a life and for my children and grandchildren.

Praise be....
