Good Sunday Morning


Such a beautiful graphic and Psalm.
Thank you for the Sunday blessings, teenie.
Wishing you a blessed Lord's Day

I spoke with her this morning. I am on the phone with her now. Lots of my relatives have power loss and trees down.

Mom is very “paranoid” about losing power. We attribute this to her upbringing during the Great Depression, when one had to feed quarters into a meter to get electricity.

No quarter-No Power.

Knee is about the same as yesterday - quads tightening up.

Hey Conor... Wanna race? I'm a rookie with this walker. 8^)

I expect to go into work tomorrow. I'll be late getting in - have to get an estimate on body work for one of the cars.

Not today, thanks. Clearly did some damage when the knee folded. The bruising is just stating to emerge.

I hope your mom realizes that “This, too, shall pass...”

Prayers for her safety, ML!

The Marine Corps Verse:

I did some research on Eternal Father, Strong to Save thinking it could be used at my father-in-law's funeral.

I was really surprised at all the different verses that have been written. He was a WWII submarine sailor and they had a verse for submariners, aviators, divers and more. I'm really not sure what the original verses were when it was written but from what I saw with my research it pretty much covered all the different jobs we sailors might be involved in.

There seems to be a verse for every specialty - I've left instructions that the Marine Corps verse be included at my funeral.

I remember the Navy Hymn from almost 48 years ago:

(Starts at 3:20 - 4:40)

My father was a Sailor, and he cried every time he heard that music and those words.

I’m glad you’ve spoken to her. I think I’m a bit paranoid about losing power, too. I’m thinkin’ of computer batteries, stuff in the fridge and AC, though. LOL!

After Hurricane Wilma, I went without power for over three weeks.

It was an adventure...
