Makes Sense

This was the message on the sign outside our church today! We had missionaries who are working in Japan speak today - a couple. Interesting. They say the Japanese are intelligent, their economy is good, but they have a high suicide rate. He said that the Japanese will come to church at first just to hear and practice English but they are also looking for more.

Our church always has refreshments (or a meal) after the service. They do it alphabetically with 2 couples serving each week. You end up doing it about twice a year. Today our neighbors, Amy & John were serving. She had made cinnamon rolls - Bill's favorite - and they were very good. Saw another deer on the way to church - Hwy. 15.

We were startled awake this morning by the fire pager going off - a wreck on a corner north of town. Turns out a drunk kid ran off the road about 3:30 am, wasn't hurt so probably slept until morning, then called 911. Bill said a couple of the wheels were ripped off and he had jumped the ditch barely missing a pole. Now we'll see if there are 2 more calls - usually happens in 3's.

I messed with the laptop this morning with the screen going off right away each time I got it on - for about 6 times. The last time it came on, I quickly checked e mails thinking it would go off any minute but here it is at 3:00 and it's STILL on!! (we haven't turned it off!!) I think it knows we ordered a 2nd laptop fairly cheap on E Bay last night! Then we'll probably order a new screen for this one same way - that seems to be the problem after reading Dell message boards. So I've scheduled my upcoming stamp classes and e mailed re: that, e mailed my downline re: a Christmas card sample swap we're going to do, etc. while I have the chance!

NICE day here! (yesterday too) Bill is working on a friend's gun and cleaning up the old garage. I'm going to cut grass here. If we have time, we may go to Twin Lakes to see the lake house our neighbors are building there.

Rob is headed to college today to set up his room, with classes starting Wed.!

Hope the laptop keeps working - we'll see!
