The example I have read of Dietrich Bonhoeffer has prompted me to try journaling. At least it will last for 1 day but like many things I'm nearly certain that it will not last long. I have no creative skill and if it persists it will certainly be a work in progress.
Karen was gone this weekend. I was worried about drifting off into my own little world and inadvertently being distant from the kids but it did not happen. The only difference that I can identify is that I prayed about it on Friday after Karen left for Chicago. Throughout the weekend it was enjoyable. I had a great time reading with coffee certainly. The girls and I went over to the Bergerons. The girls danced and swam. Brian and I played video games and enjoyed the time together. Not really certain why men act like they don't need each other but I certainly enjoy one on one time with another much more than a group.
Off to church today. I was gone the last week and will miss the next 2 because of work and Burke family vacation. I really miss going to church and hearing the word and seeing our church family.
