March 22 – “Makin’ the most of it …”


How’s the quarantine … oops, excuse me … “social distancing” (Gotta be politically correct) coming for everybody?  It started raining yesterday here, and Chris kind of lost her mind a bit.  It felt good to have another crazy person here in the house with me since I haven’t been able to go to WalMart in a long time.  What did she do?  Well, she started walking stir crazy laps around the inside of the house.  Of course I quickly joined her.  Freddy came with on one lap, then realized just how crazy we two-leggeds were.  She stopped and went over to the couch and took a nap. 

We did touch base with Josh and his crew via FaceTime.  Great invention.  Thank you very much Star Trek, or whichever science fiction show it was that inspired it.  We need a grandkids fix every so often. 

Oh, and speaking of said fixes, Nathan and Cailyn stopped by.  They had been to … WalMart (I am so jealous).  They brought us a loaf of bread and some grapes and a pineapple.  Oh, and some hugs.  Sure enjoyed my Cailyn hugs.

We did get out of the house for a while.  We drove over to Koops Barbeque on 23rd street (Next to the old YMCA).  Great food.  We called in our order and picked it up at the window, of course. 

How about this cool idea our neighborhood is hawking.  On March 24 (next Tuesday … Chalk your Walk.  Draw inspiring art or write an encouraging message on your driveway or sidewalk with chalk.  Then take a walk and see what is there.  Any ideas for artwork?  We have the chalk.

I also taped a bunch of Hallmark Christmas movies.  They had a marathon this weekend.  Of course the sad thing is, I’m pretty sure we have seen most of them.  Like, maybe … within the last three months?  Sigh …

Zechariah 14:9 says, “The Lord will be king over the whole earth.  On that day there will be one Lord, and his name the only name.”

Father, thank you for granddaughter hugs and good barbeque and sidewalk chalk.  Amen.
