Monday Morning Apr 21st

 Well Easter morning was one of worship both on line at Cornerstone Chapel and then again at S.R.B.C our local church and we once again greeted hundreds of folks who filled the church, both coming and going. We saw many new faces as well as many of our regular attendees. We will surely miss this privilege of being a welcoming committee for worshipers.

I had started the day with my usual 5'ish rollout to my routines that begin with some quiet times to honor my lord, Jesus who had risen and was once more the reason and the way to Heaven and who was being honored through out the world on this very day. All those who are on my daily prayer list is holding with this post. The temps were a little warm but a stiff breeze kept it quite comfortable to be outside as we were greeting of folks, but by the afternoon with a houseful of family our a/c which was running, suddenly broke down while eating. The house became quite warm and very uncomfortable. Thankfully I was able to determine along with our neighbor Dan who fixes these issues for his ETC houses and who had an extra capacitor on hand. That fixed the problem and once again the house cooled back down. Now I'll order a new one to replace his and hopefully that issue will be fixed. I learned my old a/c buddy has been having a run of bad luck and was presently in jail for a DUI, so sad as I've known him as a neighbor for many years and is basically a good guy and a/c man, but a divorce ruined him, which has ruined many a good man and that he has no relationship with Jesus that I know of.

I helped around the house and kitchen as we prepared for 10 folks for supper around 5'ish. I vacuumed, put the leaf in the table as well as harvested and prepared collard greens for the pot which we cooked for about 4 hours. They turned out delicious as did everything else which included; ham, tatters that Betsy made and brought, corn, beets from the garden as well as a salad and crusty bread. Carrot cake that Amy made for dessert followed later in the evening while we played games.

I did watch the Ray's lose to the Yankees before everyone arrived for supper and they looked bad with no hitting until the last inning after winning the day before. We watched some NHL as the playoff's have started and the Lightning will be playing against the Panthers in south Florida this week. Well everyone left around 9'ish then we attempted to put the house in order and now I have a small hole in the wall by the front door which Ava managed the slam the front door into while rough housing with Sam, any how I'm not pleased with her at the moment. She is usually such a sweet young lady but last evening she was anything but that, oh well that gives me two more projects to complete before leaving in about 6 weeks or less, LATER
