Sunday, June 7

6:54 a.m. - I really need to get yard work done today.  On the other hand, Greg and Georgia have invited us along with two other couples to take a ride on his houseboat at 1:00 p.m.  Plus, Kenzie and the Harrisons are having some friends over to have a pool party.  With those things going on, I need to get as much work done this morning.  I will see how far I get, and then assess the day from there.

11:41 a.m. - I got a good morning work session in.  I sprayed round-up, clipped the bushes, weed wacked the ditch, and made my first attempt at fixing the erosion issue in the ditch.  Life is good.  Kenzie's party guests should be arriving soon, and Amber and I will be heading to meet up with Greg's boat in a little while.  I can now just sit on my ass for the rest of the day and night and not feel guilty about anything! 

8:46 p.m. - The afternoon was spent with friends on a pontoon boat on the Mississippi...those are the small moments in life that make life wonderful!  We floated downstream, had a late lunch at Ducky's, and then motored back upstream at Sunset Marina.

Prayer for My Heart

Holy Spirit...

Help me have...
