Because Your love is better than life, my lips will glorify You.

Situational ethics

Is it okay if ::

:: my barometer for a good church fit is if I cry during worship? If so, then we found another good church this Sunday. Those Vineyards get me every time. I know that true worship can be found anywhere, anytime and frankly, I need to participate in that more often...but there's something about hundreds of people swept up in the Spirit. The kids had a great time in their respective classes, too. That helps.

:: I was so desperate to get a library card in Cedar Falls that I mailed myself something at the hotel address, then spoke to the help desk clerk in couched terms like, we're new to the area and this is our temporary address...? All's fair in the quest for the written word, eh? C'mon...it's a really good library.


:: I drive to Cedar Rapids...about an hour south...to get my fix at the closest (how can it be?) Trader Joe's, Half-Price Books and Chik-Fil-A? I need them...stat.

We had a great weekend with Sweet Daddy...taking it easy after the big adventure south to the Amana colonies for Maifest. We moved into another hotel across town...bigger room, kitchen, nice laundry facility...it's amazing what makes me happy. Monday & Tuesday:: Uno, swimming, thrifting, playgrounding, and errands kept us busy. And now, he's back to work... boo. Sunday, we'll have another chance to relax with him. After church, of course.

Ok, I'm more than convinced that we are really long lost sisters...
I love, Trader Joe's, Half Price Books and Chik-Fil-A...and of course...the Library! Hope you are doing well!
