week of grace 25

Sunday 31 May • The Octave of Pentecost, a.k.a. Trinity Sunday

This is another short list, another with the biblical #7, yet I truly am thankful for all the evidence of grace in my life—maybe especially these days that I've been organizing files and folders, editing and updating design and image files, donating clothes and other items. A lot of that organizing and tying together loose ends seems to go with my decision to hospice this phase of my life so I can begin the next phase well.

1. More updating, editing, housekeeping on this blog! It sounds endless, and it almost is, but hopefully all book reviews and other book-related posts will have clean links to amazon, reasonably sized pics formatted large enough to enjoy. Then there are all those other non-books blog posts that I'm also re-working through.

2. Berries. Berries, Berries. Blue ones and black ones. Still more abundant, affordable, succulent black berries and blue ones from geographically not very far away: as usual.

3. New shoes and nine(!) pairs of socks for the Survivors of Suicide walk / run / jog / (trot, canter, lope) 5K I'm doing on Saturday 13 June.

4. For safekeeping I copied and pasted notes from the (not many) bible studies I've lead over the past couple of years into Urban Wilderness – City Paradise.

5. Another double innings of the state fair award winning Thrifty Ice Cream: Butter Pecan and Cookies and Cream.

6. Fabulous baptismal and eucharistic liturgies at Church On the Hill for Trinity Sunday, a.k.a. the Octave of Pentecost. Unlike that last time I took baptism pics, I got almost five dozen that are very usable.


7. Another yummy lunch from the Panda Place. I'm convinced that's the best price and nutrition deal there is for healthy food at a realistic price. Did I say that last time? Yes, I did!
