Sunday

 

Sunday, another good day starting with a slow morning.  That's a good thing.  Then it was off to church celebrating the Transfiguration of Jesus and Confirmation Sunday and the last Sunday before Lent that signals the packing away of alleluias not to be read or sung until Easter. 

I think it was one of the best ever worship hour making each one of those mentioned blend into a meaningful worship service.  The music was what I would say part of the glue that made it all work.  Jill preached a great Transfiguration sermon.  Darren had the beginning and ending of the service with packing away the alleluia words the children colored while the choir sand the Ukrainian Alleluia. Alleluia banners were carried to the narthex as the service ended. It all brought tears to my eyes along with perhaps a transfiguration moment for me when all was said and done.  

After church I found take out clams for delivery to R who labels them and met Kathleen to make a lovely greenhouse visit at a friends house with spring in mind.  Then we were on our way home.  There was lunch and what I call a lazy afternoon of just about nothing.  Around five there was a garden walk and then grabbing my clippers I was off to trim back three Lenten rose plants finding flowers about to bloom right on schedule.  There are many more to find but three plants were enough for today.  I moved on to a very, very old clump of Hibiscus that was overcome with dead parts and Creeping Charlie.  Charlie is my least favorite weed that winters over in grand style.  There will be more work with that particular Hibiscus and Charlie. Spring juices are flowing even if spring might be a few weeks or more away.

The evening was spent watching girls with grit play basketball. Ohio State lost last night and Indiana lost today.  Both were men's teams. That is NOT so good.  

It would appear that the computer is sick in many ways but still lets me blog.  Pictures...not so good. We (not Hustin) have a problem.
