Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. The second is this: Love your neighbor as yourself. There is no commandment greater than these. ~ Mark 12:30-31
Boy. Not much happening today either! At least nothing you’d care to read about. Unless you’d like me to regale you with tales of how we drove to town and made stops at the bank (for laundry quarters), Home Depot (for hack saw blades – don’t ask. But I can assure you, it’s nothing illegal.), Verizon (to replace our jet pack), Subway (for lunch), the grocery store (for – what else? Groceries!), Striplings (for more fresh meat for dinner), and the barber shop (no. not for a stick of candy. And now I’m just aging us!)
Okay, fine, I’ll explain that one for those of you too young to remember. It’s from a nursery rhyme-type song our mothers taught us:
Hippity-hop to the barber shop
To get a stick of can-dy
One for you, and one for me
And one for Uncle Andy
By the way. Blaine and I neither one had an Uncle named Andy . . .
This barber shop Blaine found may not have been passing out candy – at least not to grown men, but he did receive the most thorough experience of his life! Cut, eyebrow trim, ear trim . . . I’m surprised they didn’t do the hot towel shave thing! He sure looks sharp now! Then again, he always looks great!
What did I do while he was sitting in the chair? I was out in the Jeep with my feet propped up, reading a book.
After we got home, we discovered we had visitors! That family of geese was in our yard this time, so we were able to snap a picture or two to share.
And the sausage-stuffed pork chops were probably the best pork we’ve ever had! Funny thing is, we thought they were stuffed with stuffing when we bought them. 😊
After dinner was a short ride around because we were now the stuffed ones!
