Monday Morning November 29th

 Well Sunday found us with another chilly morning with temps close to the bottom of the 50's which was almost in the 40's to start the day and while it did get warmer by afternoon when the sun was clouded over it was chilly outside. It stayed cloudy for most of the afternoon enough so I only hand watered once during the day before church.

We headed out to BridgePoint for worship and I ushered the first service. We had a nice crowd with many new faces mixed in with some of the regular folks. We heard an awesome message on FAMILY starting with the linage of Jesus and how Ruth fitted in with his Jewish ancestry and especially recognizing a woman who was not by blood, Jewish. Our campus pastor Bryan is the real deal and gives the plan of salvation each week. He is the reason we are sticking with the church as there are some quirks about the decor we aren't thrilled with; especially the darkness within the worship center and the concert atmosphere on stage despite the praise and worship music being heart endearing an awesome, oh well. It seems this stage presence attracts the more modern day seekers and if it helps with attracting seekers and getting them saved so be it. GOD can use any means any where to save those who are seeking his salvation.

We headed to Aldi's to shop for fresh salmon for Monday nights get together with 3 other couples at our house. They have great salmon and at a decent price plus I love their produce department and of course they are less expensive than Publix's. We loaded up once again and now have both fridge's and all the pantry's full. We met up with the Botbyl's as they moved to Starkey Road Baptist from BridgePoint over the summer at Miller's Alehouse for a decent lunch in the Seminole Center which is next door to our subdivision. The food was plentiful and O.K. and reasonable. It's a sports eatery with several large screen T.V.s through out the building.

We headed home and I tuned into the Buc's game which they just barely beat a good Colt's team. They are not the super bowl team of last year but of course every team guns for them because they were the big winners last year. Brady saved the game with his passing after being behind for most of the game due to penalties, poor defense and lack of blocking on the line for him. Oh well a win is a win and they seem to be in control of their division despite 3 losses over all. Nancy spent the afternoon shopping at the mall. Betsy came by after working at the post office for a visit for an hour or so despite her supposed to be on vacation for this whole month. She is addicted to money.

We got word that Bobby's house had the bug with everyone vomiting at times through out the day and night. I'm sure glad we never made it over for the big meal the day after Thanksgiving. Bobby had to cancel his trip today(Mon) for Texas due to this bug. Hopefully everyone will recover soon, LATER
