6:28 a.m. - Yesterday I did a stretch routine in the morning, something I hadn't done in awhile, and then I went outside I the cold and and wind to mow the yard. After that, Amber and I got ready to go to the wedding of a family member of Rhonda's. The wedding was at Sacred Heart Church - a traditional Catholic church that was built in 1909. I hadn't been in there for a long time, and I found the building interesting. I'm amazed how ceremonial and ornamental the Catholic religion is to practice its faith. While I'm currently reading the new testament, I find myself where in the new testament, people were encouraged to follow the practices that the Catholics have. And then I attend a service at Carmen's church or a service at RUMC, and they are all so different. And yet they all seem to declare that they follow the same message, and they all follow the teachings and life of Jesus Christ. The wedding reception wasn't scheduled in a different venue in East Moline at the Bend Event Center until 4 p.m., so we all headed over to the Isle of Capri to play some slots - and lose. We had a nice time, though, and we killed time to get over to the event. At the reception, the bride and groom had requested no children, which was really weird to me. It felt a bit like a formal office party combined with a wedding without kids running around and having fun. It was a very nice reception, though, and I am a big believer that the bride and groom should have the wedding day that they would like to have. We rode with Jack and Rhonda, so we said our goodbyes and headed home around 7 p.m. So the day was productive in the morning and a nice time with family for the rest of the day.
And today...the weather is so weird. I'm looking out the window, and there's frost. And Theresa Bryant is saying the temperature is 35 degrees! Sheesh. I think the only official thing on my schedule today is to visit with mom and dad. I would also like to do some work on weeds in the yard and maybe take a hoe to the flower bed and break that up. I'd also like to do some reading.
