Thursday. Simple day.
No super-pressing matters to attend to.
I
started the day at my computer, as is my custom. I try to get in as much work as I can before
Chris gets up. In Thursday’s case, that
meant working on the teaching for Sunday again.
The bulk of it is complete. Now I
just have to go over it several times to get the content in my head. And to clear up any typos for the copy of my
notes I put on the church website.
I
guess there was one pressing engagement scheduled for Thursday. Chris had a physical therapy
appointment. However, she received a
phone call a few hours before from the therapist. Seems she was double-booked, and with the
Corona scare she was not allowed to have two patients working at the same
time. I guess Chris was the
late-comer. Her appointment was moved to
today.
With
that news in hand we had to jump into action.
Our plan for Friday was to take the Equinox into the shop for an oil
change and inspection. Our mechanic said
to bring it on. Meanwhile, we watched
the latest round of thunderstorms roll in.
Quite an awesome sight to behold.
Then later, when we went to pick it up, an old Seasider was in the office
chatting with Dennis. I haven’t seen
Mark in quite a while. I think the last
time was when we ran into him at a youth baseball game. He seems to be doing great. A little stir crazy, but then who isn’t?
After
we picked up the car, Chris drove it on home and I took a leisurely drive in the
rain on into downtown to get the registration sticker. I was wondering if I would have any
problems. They didn’t send out the usual
paperwork this time. As it happened, no
paperwork was needed, other than the proof of inspection report. She checked my ID and took my money and
called it a Thursday.
Isaiah
41:13 says, “For I am the Lord your God
who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help
you.”
Father,
thank you for your promises to help. It
sure doesn’t take a pandemic to remind us we need it. Amen.
