June 27 - “Here’s to a sense of humor”

Chris advised me to take it easy for another day after my back shot. So she got to take her walk by herself. She was probably OK with it, though. That way she can up her speed level by six or seven times. Meanwhile, I made my way through what remained of the jigsaw puzzle after the girls filled in several spots yesterday.  Of course I left a few pieces for Chris to actually complete the puzzle. She’s good at that. 

We made a quick Randall’s run. My phone has been blowing up with reminders that each of us has a prescription ready to be picked up. We also had a pleasant distraction in the parking lot. Jim and Charlotte were just getting into their car as we arrived. They were on an as-yet unsuccessful search for chocolate milk that cost less than six dollars. Sigh. She might have to switch to Ovaltine. We were a little more successful on our quest. Oh, the prescriptions were easy, but we scored a few more buckets of Blue Bell on sale for $5.99. 

Back at the house, we were watching a Hallmark movie when suddenly, a thundering tornado crashed through our front door. Oh, wait. That wasn’t a natural disaster.  It was Noa and Ezra. They had been to Moody Gardens with their mom and a friend. They were just stopping by to say hi. 


Last night we started watching The Chosen again. We have had season one on DVD for some time, and we just added seasons two and three to our collection. It’s been quite a while since we watched it, so we just started over. It’s pretty amazing what those folks have done on a budget covered by crowd funding donations. We’re looking forward to the new episodes. 


2 Corinthians‬ ‭7‬:‭10 says, Godly sorrow brings repentance that leads to salvation and leaves no regret, but worldly sorrow brings death.


Father, thank you for the commitment of the movie folks to try to get the story as close to the biblical account as possible. And thank you for the sense of humor they have attributed to you. Love it. Amen.
