- "Elmo's Cow". / This is what JT calls a Mexican Resturant in town officially called El Mezcal. I'm actually not the biggest fan of the resturant, per se. I am, however, amused by my son's rendering of the name.
- The writings of Eugene Peterson. / Some will recognize his name as being the translator of The Message version of the Christian Bible. If I were an author, I'd be Peterson-like. He's a thorough scholar, a careful pastor, a incurable nature-lover, and a true words-smith. In addition to reading Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places, I currently use his little Praying with Jesus book to help keep my focused in the middle of my workdays.
- Wi-Fi. / I've realized today how many of my days (100%) are made more convient by this human invention.
- The Saint Louis Zoo. / After JT's followup checkup for his October surgery, we did a quick stop (he got to pick 3 animals to see) at the zoo. We're close. It's free. He loves animals. Gotta love it.
- InterACT, our small group. / All we did was rake somebody else's yard and have lunch together today, but I really like having these friends of ours.
- Making Chili. / Although Alison isn't as much of a fan of it as I think she was in our earlier years, it's still a favorite seasonal activity of mine. I do, however, have to be in the right mood. And ya know, it's really hard to actually mess it up.
- Facebook Thankfulness. / Yes, I normally don't like the chain-letter-like fads that get passed around through email and Facebook. And no, I'm not a participant in the daily posting of thankfulness. And no, I don't even read all of the gratitudinal content. Still, I commend all those who have taken up this November discipline. Good stuff.
Praise God from whom all blessings flow!
Elmos Cow...The funniest thing I've heard in quite awhile.
