Wednesday, June 3

7:56 a.m. - Yesterday was a pool day, but today is a rain day.  I think Amber and I are venturing to the Iowa side to visit a casino and get some lunch.  Then we'll return home, and I will eventually get ready for the daily FedEx Ground workout.  I didn't sleep well last night, as I have some family matters that are irritating to my brain and heart.  Those matters don't have a lot of good options for solutions, so I find myself hoping for something good to happen when past history doesn't justify that hope.

2:42 p.m. - Well, nothing much changed about going to the casino, which normally consists of losing $100 in a relatively short amount of time.  The social distancing thing really didn't seem significant.  I would say the using of masks was about 50/50, and all the employees were wearing masks.  We went to Chili's for lunch, and most customers were not wearing masks but the staff employees were.

Prayer for My Heart
Holy Spirit...
Help me have... 
    a pure heart, that I may see thee;
    a humble heart, that I may hear you;
    a heart of love, that I may serve you;
    a heart of faith, that I may abide in you.
