After a church service on Sunday morning, a young boy suddenly announced to his mother, "Mom, I've decided to become a minister when I grow up."
"That's okay with us, but what made you decide that?"
"Well," said the little boy, "I'll have to go to church on Sunday anyway, and I figure it will be more fun to stand up and yell than to sit and listen." ;-)

Wow! It's been a long time since I popped in here and a lot seems to have happened. I haven't been able to read all of the posts, but wanted to say hi anyway.
An update on FIL, he's doing so much better now! He's out and about on his own driving and walking every day. He's well on the road to recovery. Thank you all for your prayes. Prior to his heart attack, he also had a condition called scleroderma which is largely untreatable. When he had a follow-up appointment with his specialist (a new one, his former one retired) after the surgery, she told him he didn't have scleroderma at all. There is no record in his medical files at all and he has no symptoms. He looks better than he has in years.

Good morning, all! 😉
oh my, the air is soo thick today...humidity is through the roof. Feels like a greenhouse here in this office.
*trying to find the A/C*
I get so lethargic when it's muggy.
Enjoy your day! :)

My first thought was to rejoice.
I rejoiced as well. One less person spewing hate and lies.
