misc.
not much to say really. here's a short list....
- brokenhearted about Rick Burgess's son. have cried about it. am amazed at the faith he has shown through this ordeal.
-doing the "read the Bible in a year" plan with church has brought up some questions. like, were people required to be vegetarians between Eden and the Flood? and, boy there was alot of polygamy early on. that one was a little unsettling.
- i bitched about the unseasonable heat in the fall and now that it is really cold, I realized I should have kept my mouth shut and embraced the global warming.
- was somewhere (I forget where) and made a joke about global warming. I was being tounge in cheek about its existence and whomever I was speaking to didn't get that and thought I was an algore believing global warming enthusiast. Apparently, they believe in GW and said, "How can anyone not believe that is true?". It was like 32 degrees outside at the time. I had no idea there were people in our state that actually thought GW was true. I stand corrected.
-i can't wait to go back to Vegas (sorry, Mom. the hotel is really nice, the spa is fabulous and its right accross the street from the best mall in the universe. I'm not doing anything illicit I promise.)

Maybe you should get one of those global warming bumper stickers for your car for laughs! Our SS class is reading through the old testiment and I thought it was going to be soo borning but not so much.
I did that 9 years ago...has it really been 9 years??? The Old Testament books are kind of interesting, well, except for the entire chapters where every other word is 'beget' and the detailed measurements for the temples and stuff. I know that it's there for a reason, but converting 'cubits' to 'feet' was more math than I had really planned for. You're right, though, reading it can raise A LOT of questions. Why did sometimes God tell them to fight, and someimes not? Why did God tell them to go tell the world what great things He had done, and sometimes He told them to keep it on the down low?
I don't know how people without faith get throughit when things like that happen. When Rick said
his child was with the only one who loved him more than he did, it helped me to accept more why things like that happen
I am doing the Bible in a yr, too and do a lot of skimming over the measurements and beget parts (although my preacher, who is doing a survey of all the books of the Bible on Sunday nights - it's like school with handouts and everything and I take notes - said go ahead and read those parts,too).
We should have a discussion sometime.
katie, you need to update your blog ;) it was fun to meet you at cha.
