We went back up to the convention for another breakfast burrito. This one had sausage and bacon. “Meat lovers,” the server called it. Pretty good stuff. After we ate, we took another stroll through the vendor rooms. There were not many people there, and the vendors went out of their way to gift us with their give-aways. Hmm. Nice.
Chris
and I went to a session on the outlook for ministry in Texas after Roe v. Wade
was repealed. It was interesting to hear all the resources available even now.
In the words of the presenter: “We have the bandwidth to deal with post-Roe v.
Wade world.” “Bandwidth”? Haven’t heard that terminology in a while.
From
there we headed out. The conference was pretty much over, so we did our
two-pronged personal Waco watch. First, we drove by the Castle. It’s the big
building that Chip and Joanna Gaines renovated for their tv show. Pretty
impressive edifice. Next, we went by Academy and HEB to do some indoor walking.
I may or may not have snuck in a few (5, more or less) cups of frozen lemonade
into the cart. Can’t wait.
I
was “invited” into AnnaGrace’s room to play. It was all about Barbie the
Ballerina and Ken the dark hair who loved Barbie from afar. Also involved was
Ken of the blonde locks, who had an obvious leap on the competition. And by
leap, I mean he was a ballerina as well. He was able to lift Barbie into
the air and twist himself into varying degrees of ouch. His only mistake came
when he tried to present Barbie with a ring. He was soundly rejected. I mean
she kicked it out of his hand violently. He made a rapid comeback, though.
After all, the show must go on. I’m pretty sure there was more that went on in
the saga, but I fell asleep. AnnaGrace didn’t wake me up. In fact, I think she
finally dozed a bit as well. Interesting creatures, these girls …
Last
night we drove down to Georgetown to watch Zak’s first basketball game of the
year. Four of their guys just got done with football and have had one practice
- Zak included. You could really tell the basketball cobwebs had set in. The
good guys managed to pull it out, though. 32-30 good guys. In overtime. A real
nail biter. We ended up staying around to watch the varsity girls game (sad
state of affairs) and the varsity guys game (good guys won by six or seven). I
have missed basketball …
Isaiah 60:3 says, “Nations will come
to your light, and kings to the brightness of your dawn.”
Father,
thanks for my time watching AnnaGrace play. I’m just glad she wanted me around.
Amen.
