Wrapping Up Season 3
Good morning! It's the first day of my three day weekend. For being past 7am it's still amazingly quiet. Michelle is napping on the couch, Timothy's tinkering on his laptop, and I'm catching up on my Read It Later list with a big mug of coffee. Everyone else, including Abby's sleepover guest, is still asleep.
From First Things magazine: How to Destroy a Culture in 5 Easy Steps. I heard mention of this a few days ago on the radio and finally got around to it.
Congrats to @tupelorob and his wife who bring their new adopted daughter back home to Tupelo today.
From Crisis magazine: Surrendering Marriage. Here the author promotes a legal option that already exists in a few states, Covenant Marriage. It grew out of dislike of no-fault divorce and tries to raise the standards for contracting a marriage and limiting the reasons for divorce.
Went to the YMCA for the Saturday morning Step & abs class. Golds Gym has no classes this holiday weekend.
Been there! Via gabrielsaldana: “You realize you're a geek when you find yourself using Emacs lisp code to do quick math operations instead of using a calculator.”
After lunch Michelle took the kids over to the town pool so she could relax while they went swimming. I took a nap back at home because I was pretty tired from the morning's workout. When I got up and she came home, we mowed the lawn. This afternoon looked like the best time, as tomorrow has rain forecast and Monday looks to be hot.
Having dinner with the family at Red Arrow Diner.
Watching Doctor Who, The Sound of Drums, with the family.
I got the boys tucked in bed with their prayers. Now watching Doctor Who, The Last of the Time Lords, with Abby. These episodes are parts two and three of a three part story arc, wrapping up season 3 of the new Doctor Who.
First Rose Tyler. Now goodbye Martha Jones.
