Herman Miller's Pot of Gold

This morning there was a beautiful full rainbow that appeared to end at Herman Millers Mainsite. We joked about the pot of gold at Herman Miller. I ran to my car to get a camera, but it began raining and by the time I got back in the building not only was my hair ruined for the day, but the rainbow had melted into the rain.

Good Morning America

I almost cheered when I watched this segment on tv this morning. Way to go to put an arrogant interviewer in his place.

The timer counts down, and the best parts are at 4:40ish and 2:40ish.

Click the More button which says Less on the picture below. Then choose Congresswomen Explain Nay Vote.

This morning I was doing my morning walk. Typically I use this as my prayer time and then think about the day. I was walking along when about 15 yards in front of me something was moving. It’s still dark when I’m out, but thankfully a street light was close by. My first thought was a small dog or cat until I saw the white stripe down the back of the black animal.

Yes, a skunk went waddling from some garbage cans on the street up a driveway and along the side of a house.

That was a first for me, and I don’t want to come across a skunk again not only at that ridiculous time of the morning but ever.

Trash It Party

Tuesday night's Mary Kay meeting is a trash it party. My guest(s) can bring up to 3 items of another brand to trash and receive a 50% discount for each product they bring.

Want to be my guest? Call me.

Sunday a.m.

This morning I rang handbells for the first hymn and then went to the piano for the chorus just after the call to worship. Thankfully a couple of us looked in the little room to realize some things had been moved and the stairs were covered up. I would've sprinted through that room and had to jump down about 3 feet and not known it. It wouldn't have been or sounded pretty.

I actually was told to slow down a song which is unusual as typically I, and most everyone else, am told to speed it up, pick up the tempo.

Safe when flying?

Having flown this week I appreciated this post: http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2008/09/random-travel-t.html

Last summer in DC a tour guide said yes, she gets very tired of the security at every building when the government isn't doing the big security things such as securing the borders, etc. If people who want to do bad are in the country then looking in a backpack at an event isn't making us safe.

Mission Service

Last night I went with my church to it's bi-monthly service at Mel Trotter Mission. I play the piano (same songs every time--Amazing Grace and Victory in Jesus), and last night I gave the testimony of how I came to know Jesus Christ.

The piano is bad. For my family members, it makes the piano in Grandma Hemmer's basement sound good. Many notes must be at least a whole step or more off which makes notes sound wrong when they really aren't. Also, you can play at the same stroke, but one time the note will play, one time it won't play, and the next time it will strike very loudly.

On the drive back to church I mentioned, "Well, when you get an average to below average player on a really bad piano the results can't be good."

The guy who preached last night after a long pause said, "Well, the important thing is you're doing your best to serve God."

I think I got that message pretty clearly.
