Bits of This and That

 

Good morning:  It's Monday 4/3/2023 at 10:18 and it's 50 degrees out, rather overcast and starting to rain. 

Hubby and I took a drive to Middletown to drop off our tax information to the people who do our taxes each year.  These people are the best.  After dropping them off, we ran through McDonald's drive-thru and picked up a quick breakfast and are now at church.  I just completed listening to the scriptures for today.  3 chapters in Luke.  Below is what I'm using for my personal reading scripture each day.  If you're interested in knowing more, I've added a link.  If you click on the picture below it should take to where you can join in with Annie Downs for the reading of the 4 Gospels each month.  I've really been enjoying this. 

After I finish this blog post and read a few of yours, I will be working on the lessons for this week's Bible Study with the ladies on Tuesday night.  I'm a little behind but I have the rest of the morning and all afternoon to catch up.  If you're looking for a good study, we're doing Amos by Jennifer Rothschild and it's really good.

We've had a really good, quiet and mostly peaceful weekend.   On Friday, I finished book 4 in the Kennedy Stern Series by Alana Terry.  I went to Libby to get book 5 and had to put it on hold, as someone else is reading it.  I ended up getting book 1 in a series by Lynette Eason called Extreme Measures.  Book 1 is called Life Flight.  I really enjoyed this book a lot, but sometimes I had to put it down because the suspense would get so intense.  Sometimes I just have to step away for a bit and then I can come back.  I'm the same way with movies and some TV series that we watch.  It really was a very good book.  I finished it Sunday (I hardly ever read a book that fast) and now I'm reading book 2 in that series called Crossfire and I think it's going to be really good too.  If you are interested in checking them out to see if you'd like them, you can click on the link to my GoodReads account in the sidebar to the right.  The book I'm reading now is my 21st read of the year.  For some reason, I'm really in the reading zone.

Hubby and I went out each day this weekend for a bit, but we really spent a lot of time at home and I think we both loved that.

Sunday we had 2 really good services, a nap in the afternoon which all made for a perfect Sunday.  I'm posting the pre-recorded Sunday morning sermon which was the final sermon in the "What the Cross Meant" series.

Well, that is pretty much our weekend in a nut shell.  I hope you had a really good one too.  Thanks for visiting and I hope you have a great day.
