Monday! Monday!

It rained most of the day. Chelsea and I walked in the rain, but it was so gentle that early that we did not get wet at all (except for Chelsea rolling in the grass.)

Bible study today after a week off for the Labor Day Monday. The three readings today all kind of went together. Sometimes they seem disjointed. Today the common theme seemed to be forgiveness and the fact ignorance IS and excuse no matter what that old saying says. One of the stories is Prodigal son. And oldie but goodie. People have a tendency to feel really sorry for the "good" son. Understandable as everybody does like to be acknowledged for what they do. But the story reminds us that we really need to do what is right whether we get a fatted calf or not. We all decided that we COULD understand the joy that Father had on the return and repentance of that wayward son no matter what he had done.

Spent the rest of the day cleaning and sorting out my desk. Caught up on phone calls too. We had Celtic Faire food for supper so my day was quite easy.

Rhine Plymouth meeting was tonight. It too was quite uneventful so now I am home again and ready to settle in for the night. Chelsea just came over to me and told me that she really wants to go outside and then to bed.

Love

Mary
