July 5 - “Monopoly ‘Mer’ca”


I didn’t sleep very well. For some reason I was hot and my feet were tingling to the point of being really annoying. It took me a while to realize … I forgot to take my evening meds. They are for dealing with the exact symptoms I was experiencing. I took the meds, worked on a crossword puzzle, and finally fell back to sleep. I was back awake by about 5:15, though. I got up and had a cup of coffee with Ken. 


Ken decided to stick around and join us for lunch. The LaMarque clan came over as well, and we grilled some burgers and hotdogs. After lunch a rousing game of Monopoly ‘Mer’ca ensued. All the properties are sites in the country, and some house rules allowed some trivia questions to be entered into play. The game ended when Ezra managed to bankrupt his Daddy. Attaboy, Ezra. 


Ken left to continue his long weekend driving trek. Everyone else had watermelon, Blue Bell ice cream of five different flavors, or sno cones flavored with white cherry or pina colada. It was truly a ‘Mer’ca celebration kind of day. 


‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭3‬:‭17‬  says, Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom.


Father, thank you for the time we had reconnecting with Ken. Keep him safe and healthy. Amen.
