Small World

Our church is large-ish I suppose at least to me. It has 1700-2000 people. I guess large/small is all relative isn't it? Anyway, our guest speaker today was our pastor's brother. He has lived in Australia for 20 years--yeah different continent.
He starts speaking and after telling us about "tea" in Australia, he begins telling a story. Oddly enough, the person who he is telling the story about are people that were in my parent's wedding & vice versa. I wasn't positive so I confirmed details with my mother and it was the same person. I guess I just thought that was noteworthy considering the people do not live in the US anymore and do not live in Australia either =).

It's a chilly one! There has been a good 30-40 degree swing from what we had afew days ago to now. We're trying to adjust and get used to it. I am hoping for milder weather for Chicago next weekend. You see, it can be windy here, however nothing compares to Chicago windy.

I received a letter excusing me from jury duty!! Thanks Juju!

It feels like kind of a non-productive weekend. Maybe my blood is too cold to get much done, IDK. I may get my motivation back this evening and get some cleaning and odds/ends stuff done before Josh gets home. I know that the rest of November and all of December will be full o non-stop stuff. Maybe a restful weekend isn't so bad. Next weekend while I'm away, Josh plans to crank out some major work on the bath as well as put up outside Christmas lights. We do not turn them on until after Thanksgiving, however putting them up ahead of time can help save the pain of the cold. Many times we get a MAJOR snow on December 1st!

Well, I'm off. This getting dark at 5 pm stuff is enough to throw one's schedule out of whack.
