Slache Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 The flower girl was 18 months old and there were like no people at the wedding so after she dropped the pedals she ran back and the bride carried her out when she came. Then when the bride and groom kissed we clapped and she thought it was over so she threw her bucket, yelled "Yay!" and ran out the door and her mom who was the maid of honor had to run after her. 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wheres Toto Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Morning. I have an appointment Wednesday to see about my computer. So now I'm going to have to get at least some files off the shared drive and put them on this little dinky thing. Or do no work for my classes for 3 days and maybe another few days if I have to order a new computer. Not like there isn't off-line stuff I can do. Still need to box up books for new flooring. I've been sleeping okay. Going to bed at a decent time and waking up at a decent time, which is good I guess. I've been having weird dreams that I'm actually remembering, and today I have a headache. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 Good morning! I dreamed last night that it was late September and I had to decide if I wanted to jump into public school (12th grade?) a month late or continue homeschooling. I had all the books needed so I chose public school. Dd13 and I are playing for all three services this morning, so we will be here at church for a good long time.

Anyhow, we will watch live stream. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But one more week and I'm done with that for a while. I have to clean my filthy house this week. I don't want to clean filthy house.

Wheres Toto Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 If you were involved in classes or coops or something that has registration and fees, would you find it weird if they weren't accepting payments until August this year? Classes start a week after Labor Day which is September 14th, so that opens payments up 6-7 weeks before classes start. The vast majority of my students don't register until fairly last minute, but I've told a couple of new people about the wait. I'm just wondering if that is weird. I'm still penciling them in on the roster so the spots are held, at least for a little while. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Another Lynn Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I dreamed that robots were taking over the world by simultaneously tromping everything to death and covering everything with a layer of melted metal. I got separated from everyone I knew and it was too dark to see anything. But then someone said we would be safe in an elevator. I was pretty sure they were wrong, but what choice did I have? Then afterwards, there was a window in the elevator (not sure where that came from), so we broke it and got out. 😆 And then in the real world, we were almost late to church, but we weren't. And Church was lovely. And I made myself a spinach, mushroom, swiss cheese omelet when I got home. yummy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted June 14, 2020 Share Posted June 14, 2020 I went to Publix because I thought there was a chance they'd have low sugar pectin. They don't have ANY pectin, unless they keep it away from the rest of their canning supplies, which wouldn't surprise me. I hate Publix. It's just s small step above AFSA for me, and closer to my house. I am grumpy because I woke up at 3 and didnt get to sleep until 5:30 snd I had to get up st 6. Then spparently I said something out of place and got the blank repsonse from the music director st church snd now my iPad keyboard is being stupid. Pizza will be done soon.

I'm sure he just had a covid season induced momentary lack of judgement. We can fix that.

Junie Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 My pastor tricked me into praying during the church service tonight. (It's ok, I don't really mind much.) A few weeks ago he asked me to pray during our zoom church service -- he generally asks most of the members who are attending -- he wasn't singling me out. I told him that my Spanish wasn't good enough for me to be able to pray. (I usually have to think of anything I'm going to say ahead of time and look up a word or two.) Tonight he asked the other members if they understood enough English for me to pray in English instead of Spanish. And I understood all of this enough to know that he wanted me to pray. Maybe I should have just said, "No entiendo." (I don't understand.) But it would have been a lie. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don’t really care. The kids are on summer vacation. I have work to do, though. Woke up again 4:00am to skunk smell wafting through the open windows. That was delightful. Oh, and it’s our anniversary today. We’re not doing anything tonight. I have a drive-through birthday party to go to for one of my students. So, I think I will have the girls make a big card on poster board to hang out of the car as we drive by. I don’t know the etiquette for these things.

Some (including myself) would struggle with this and feel singled out and/or embarrassed by the attention. But I'm learning (with DH's help) that this is the way many well meaning and beautiful people show their genuine desire to welcome and show acceptance. Yes, that's why I said I didn't really mind (much). I'm not really comfortable praying in public to start with. And the way the people in this church pray! I had tears running down my face a few weeks ago as one of the ladies was praying. I have been a Christian since I was 5 or 6 and I still don't pray the way that some of the people in this church pray. I know that we are not to compare -- and I'm really not -- but it is humbling. I have really enjoyed going to Spanish church while in quarantine. (Logistics make it easy to go to both the English and Spanish services.) Those logistics are going to eventually change and I am going to miss going to Spanish church so often. (Prior to the lockdown I had been attending on Wednesday evenings only.) The iglesia has been very welcoming. I still feel like a bit of an outsider, but that it the fault of the language barrier, not the fault of anyone there.

Susan in TN Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I was almost late for my mandolin lesson because apparently Microsoft kicked me out of something and I couldn't get into Skype. Made it just in time. Today we worked on arpeggios (they are exactly the same notes as on violin, so I can do arpeggios in my sleep, but they feel much different on mandolin) and we played Farther Along and worked on improvising melodies on Boil 'Em Cabbage and Will the Circle Be Unbroken, and a little bit on chop chords. This week I'll practice some blues exercises and try making connections between arpeggios, chord hand-frames, and improvising melodic lines.
