July 16, 2014 Wednesday

Did some Country Line dancing with Denise this morning.  Get movin' !


Psalm 16 "I have learned in whatever state I am, to be happy" (Phil. 4:11)  This psalm reminds us to be happy with what we have because God gives us so much.  Don't base your happiness on what someone else has or does, but enjoy what God has gifted you with.  Don't be negative - look at the positives of your life.


On this day:
1977 - Six of us took the boat on a beautiful summer day and cruised over to Pikes Peak in Canada to spend the day with friends at a BBQ.  I can't help but wonder if that would go the same easy way today.  I believe that Pete called in travel plans to the coast guard or whoever you had to do that with, but I'm sure it is much more involved today.
1950 - The largest crowd in sporting history was 199,854. They watched the Uruguay defeat Brazil in the World Cup soccer finals in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It is way bigger now!


Parenting - Went out to dinner with my female cousins and friends last night.  It is always a gab fest.  We noted that we went from all talking about our mothers (I am the only one that has one now) to our health issues.  We are getting old.  On the way home Kathy was talking to her grandson from Tennessee on the phone and kept saying "slow down".  We remembered when our moms, mine still, says that people talk to fast.  I guess we are just listening slower.  If you are talking to someone that is elderly, you might want to slow down, if communicating with them is what you want to do.  Just a suggestion.


Book Club - Leaves of Grass by Walt Whitman, I am taking it a couple of pages at a time.  I have to really pay attention to what point he is making.  It is going to be a long read, but good.  Expanding my knowledge and perception.
