So there I was rolling out of bed at 6:20 for 6:30 chores...let me tell you I can eat a bowl of marshmallow maytes faster than anyone you know! haha Chores were pretty uneventfull, Otis is looking quite good now and there were no extra or missing livestock!
When chores finished I went in the house and got ready for church and Merle started to saddle up to help Delbert sort a few cow and a bull out today. It rained a little over an inch last night I believe- can't remember for sure what we got here but I know that's what they got in Martin. I took the one ton 4x4 pickup to church...and let me tell you, it was muddy. I had cars ahead of me going way too slow and one behind me pushing me going way to fast! Then, coming up a hill (of course that would be my luck) I meet Delbert pulling a stock trailer and I almost fell right off the road- but just barely hung on and made it to church without getting completely stuck in the ditch! The service was fine, but during the communion the usher told me to feel free to talk to the pastor about communion after the service (since I can't take it in that church). So, I greeted him and proceeded to tell him that I am a ELCA Lutheran and was wondering if there was any way I could take communion at his church. ...he went on to say that I couldn't because the WELS synod does not agree with the ELCA synod on some issues including this and that and the other thing. And that was right about where the conversation ended. It wasn't like he said ... "O but you're welcome to come worship with us" ...it was more like, "we have to wash the pew when you leave". (figuratively- I think!) So, I came back home annoyed about that and told Merle and Delbert and they said I should have asked for my money back! LOL, now that is a good one! So, next Sunday I think I might check out the Episcipol chuch in town- idk- apparently I won't be going to the Lutheran one anymore.
When I got back I made a few phone calls and then went out and met Merle and Delbert just in time for dinner...which was amazing. For one reason or another Sharla made prime rib and baked an angel food cake! Yum...sooo much better then my frozen pizzas and cereal! After dinner I helped with some piddly things and we moved the lawn mowers around. Then, I finally got ahold of Gordo (my friend that was in Rapid this weekend). She had been sleeping all morining and by the time I got her on the phone it was one o'clock. I needed some things in town anyway, so I drove to Rapid and met up with them for some pizza and a Wal-mart run. Then, we hung out for a bit and I decided I had better head back before it gets too dark and this nasty storm hits. And that's just what I did. I think the storm might miss us- but I wouldn't wanna be in it, that's for sure! Well, I think I'm gunna shower and sleep.
