It was 10 bloomin' degrees this morning. Not. A. Fan
On the bright side, no weather related issues at church, other than cancelling last night

10° right here, right now. Also not a fan. A fan is the LAST thing I need right now.

It's currently 20 degrees.... and our temp for Monday says 75!!!! Not mad about that.
But hate the up and down.  :pound:

Found a part-time job as a "reader/evaluator". It's like where I grade papers and tests and things. Not sure how it will go, but I am interested in finding out!

@Roscoe - I needed to read that testimony today. That's awesome about Bro. Roger.

Today is my mom's birthday. She would have been 64.

I cooked a pot of beans on the wood stove last night, now hubby is wanting them turned into chili beans.

Both would go very well with cornbread...

He's still got some health challenges but after God removing the mass we are believing for everything else to be healed too.
Today- well yesterday, since it's just after midnight- was a long day. I'm looking forward to next weekend and a small getaway even if I do have to preach one night.

Busy day. Replaced Lou's 165k mile car with a '23 Chrysler 300S. Sold S10 that has been Chey's daily. Probably going to go bring Lou's former car home to stay Monday for Chey a daily. Constantly shuffling to keep everyone on the road.
 Chey's Corvette is having some issues that cause it to need to be in the shop. Nothing major, but I'd like it to go back to being a "fun" car, not ragged out as a daily. And if I DO bring the Caddy back- I know its pros and cons.

Been a fun day. Pastor didn't even get to preach this morning because God took over and we had a shouting service. I took off running the isles which I haven't done in years. About twice around and I was coughing really bad and gasping for air - I have exercise induced asthma.

Stayed over for the first meeting of the game life group. Joined the table of those playing Aggrivation. Ended up winning the game.

We also had the first 2 eipsodes tonight of The Chosen season 2 watch party.

A stranger drives past Bobby's place, sees all the cars and stops. He finds Bobby under a random vehicle and asks, "Say, how much you want for that one?"

"Wait, what? This ain't a car lot?"

It needs to be. And Tia, Aggravation....that's a game I LIVE lately,and I ain't winning. :laughhard:
Caddy did come home, and the S10 is now on the market. Kim wanted it, but decided against it. I guess it'll sit here at the house sans insurance because I can't afford all the insurance I be paying. Lou's new car insurance hurt.
A wee bit stressful this week.

Today has kicked my knickers. Up early, to the bank, to the church to open it for the sound guy, off to Conway for the Caddy, back to church with sound guy- now have totally new sound system, a Yamaha mixer and a amp and rack system for the wireless receivers, much neater than ever before- then to check on Rusty, then insurance on the car, go to the tax preparers with tons of paperwork, then check on Roger as he had a dr appointment to deal with his other issues, then back to drop car off with Lou, came home and cleaned my truck interior finally- I am done. Three days to work, and off to Kentucky. I should be looking forward to that- but honestly, I have to preach, and I have only a rough idea what God may want. Therefore- I worry and stress....I will enjoy the time with my wife regardless.

Oooh, a new mixer! One of my favorite toys.

Speaking of sound booth news, our pastor just bought a 10 receiver personal monitor set. Like lapel microphones, with the battery pack and all, but they have earbuds instead of mics. Now it doesn't matter if you have a stage monitor pointed right at you while you are playing the keyboard.

10 earbud battery packs, but only two channels. So much for everybody's dreams of getting 10 different personal monitor mixes straight from the soundboard. Also these battery packs feel all kinds of flimsy. But they do work. I tested all 10 of them.

He will give you the right things like He always does Bobby!! No stressing. I know...easier said than done.  :updown:

Have to go to DFW tomorrow for a neurology appointment. I eventually ran out of my headache preventative and it was DEF helping. I'm averaging 1-3 headaches again per week since I got off of it. But they won't refill it because I havent seen the DR in forever and I can't do a virtual appointment because I'm in OK and they're in TX. BAH.

I told you that you could have some if you'd come see me.  :hypocrite:

I too like pie. Road trip with Lou in the new car.
Stopped and saw my uncle in missouri then arrived in Kentucky a few ago.
New car is comfortable and impressive on fuel mileage...averaging over 30 mpg in a full size fat boy sedan.
Brother who lives here called me and told me where to go for a room, and had covered it.
Much to my surprise he paid for two nights in a suite at the Marriot.  Very swanky and unexpected, its as big as chey's apartment will be...

This pie was actually sugar free. It had pineapple, bananas, cherry pie filling and strawberry jello. It tastes better than it sounds.

Roscoe

Shew. Level one fear unlocked. Completed service. Felt God. People cried and prayed. Now relaxing, and wondering if we will make it to a friend's church in the morning....was out way late with the church we ministered at.
