Catchin' Up

Yes, it's been yet another week where I'm behind in everything, including my blogging. Too much going on, and then I come home and fall asleep. It amazes me how sitting to chat and pray with folks can be so physically draining.

I was on call Tuesday night. Prayer and support for patients and families: one death, the end of a long life, well-lived; one multiple stabbing victim, recovering nicely; and one early morning surgery to repair the feet of a scalded toddler, so they will pitter-patter again soon.

On Thursday I drove north to Evanston; Dropped off Robert, had a nice chat with Alex, and then trotted over to St. Mark's to drink in some Theology on Tap. Brother Tripp was the presenter that night, and was wonderful; you can preach in my pulpit anytime, my friend. Check his blog for details.

Speaking of exhausting, I'm headed out shopping with my daughter this morning. I love spending the time with her, but... the shopping gene bypassed me entirely. If any of you want to join in our browsing adventures, come on down. If you're a shopper, you can run the racks with Carolyn. If not, you can keep me company on the bench outside the dressing room.
