I know that when this economic bubble pops it's going to hurt. But I keep hoping it pops soon.

Quote from: The Purple Fuzzy on Today at 02:45:05 PMMy mom wrecked her car the other day. I'm glad she wasn't hurt. But now I have to take her to her doctor appointment today. Hope she gets another car soon. Cars are so expensive nowadays. She lives in the next town over, so it's not like it's just around the corner.
They are indeed way expensive. Especially for anything with less than a quarter million miles on it and decent.

@Work. I have had the equivalent of two breakfasts in a plan to try to avoid snacking before lunch.

Urgh. Morning. Made it through yesterday....Bible study went well. About 40 there, with several out with health issues. Announced a planned Baptism for Sunday night and had a lady that just started attending about a month ago raise her hand. "Would you mind baptizing me that night as well?"  No ma'am, indeed I would NOT mind. Without offense- I'll treat folks like cattle in that regard- I'll run them through and baptize in Jesus' name until I'm outta water or people. :laughhard:
So glad to see God moving in our area and I just want to be a part of it.
In much less spiritual news, I am cranky and sore this morning- aka a normal day. Hope y'all have a great one!

Quote from: Lynx on Yesterday at 10:55:28 AMYou too? Some churches just have it TOO LOUD!

I got a pair of earplugs, cut them in half and colored the cut end with a black marker. Good sound protection, no questions from other church people. Nobody can see them.

Just in case you get tired of people looking at you funny for wearing headphones in church.

Not been able to find any in ear options that won't bother the pressure in my ears. Got any suggestions on ear plugs minus eardrum pressure?  Thankfully my church family and pastor is well aware of autism and sound sensitivity so they're not phased  by me wearing headphones in church. My Pastor's middle daughter wears them too sometimes.

Quote from: Backseat Radio on April 16, 2024, 07:28:17 PMSunday service were good. Had a lady get the Holy Ghost. I've been working with wearing headphones during church for the past few weeks to better tolerate the noise levels. Discovered during altar service that they help me tune out the distraction of folks wanting to pray with me so I can focus on praying.

Was a good weekend here.  My church hosted the ALJC Indiana Section 2 Youth Rally Saturday afternoon.  I was supposed to be the one running the ProPresenter. A friend that I invited showed up and wanted to be able to sit with me, so my Pastor booted me out of the media room and took over running the ProPresenter so I could be with my friend since it was his first time at my church.  I ended up getting quite a sunburn during the afterburner food and fellowship after the rally.

Sunday service were good. Had a lady get the Holy Ghost. I've been working with wearing headphones during church for the past few weeks to better tolerate the noise levels.

I get my bikes back tonight.   :clap:
I'd sent my teen years bike to the shop to be resurrected from the dead. It had sat behind dad's house for over 10 years getting dirty, rusty. The seat was half eaten by some critter, the tires were tore up from the mud, and the shifter cables were wore out. The bike shop made it look new.  My newer bike I had cleaned and safety checked.

Morning. Been eventful weekend. Had one pray back through Sunday night, good church. Enjoyed company of a friend yesterday, got an encouraging telephone call, and now I'm back at work. Would prefer to be home, but it'll be ok.
Got a call last evening while I was headed to town- my assistant pastor informed me matter of factly, that he had been in a head on collision, and couldn't reach his wife to tell her. I sailed to the scene, then to the hospital.
He's okay but banged up. His new car, less than 5k miles, is a total. Dude was driving too fast, lost control on a curve and sideswiped the car ahead of Bro Clayton, then ricocheted into him head on. I fear that if the guy had not hit the first car, which took some of the energy out of the incident, it could have been very different. Thankful for God's hand.
