Easter Sunday

Chocolate bunnys and Easter eggs are for the kids and I don't have any and so we didn't celebrate that portion of Easter. There was no family gathering but when there are two of you then you celebrate with each other. We went to the No. 1 Chinese Buffet as per my wife's choice. I had my dozen oysters on the half shell and I shard one with my love. She didn't want another but enjoyed the one I gave her. She spent part of tonight politicking me for her bottom teeth to be replaced with false teeth. I told her point blank she is on a waiting list for other things to be paid for. Why is it that 2K a month is not enough to live on?

Went to church today and sang in the choir. We sang some powerful songs from the cantata and then Handel's Hallelujah Chorus. This church was clapping. I remember the first time they clapped was when I sang Thank You by Ray Boltz and commemorated the life of one of the choir members. Before that they had never clapped. Surprising was the recognition that I received from the choir directer, her husband and the members for my singing....my gift from God. I sang from my heart and to the best of my ability and I made mistakes and yet sang with conviction. Maybe that is what they heard. Reminds me of when my second chair and I in the baritone section of the band agreed to sound like the radio as our new standard. Raise the standard and the glory goes to God. If it doesn't go to God then we will be eaten by worms.

Planted a lot of seeds in my seed trays and seed soil and will wait for two weeks to see them sprout and can transplant them to vaious areas of my garden. Cut down all of Evaugh's trumpet lily stalks and ran out fo energy to cut down mine. LOL...Will do that tomorrow and put them in the fire pit and make a fire to meditate on and burn. Picked a section of weeds today and put them in the second tire composter. It is almost full and I need to cover them so that mosquitoes don't have a field day in them. I will go to the taxi company and see if they want to give me more tires for my composting or if they don't want to talk with me. It is to their benefit to give me tires so they don't have to haul them away at a buck twenty five each. Considering what I have in my front yard I may very well need to make three more piles of tires to take care of the compost material that I already have.

Dad, Kim and Connie called and wished us a happy Easter. I guess that Peggy called her mom this morning so that was good too. Cho is surrounded by loving people at church and she really loves it. She is so loving back. She didn't want to go today but with a little chiding on my part she dressed us nicely and I told her how beautiful she looked. My neighbors are partying tonight and are loud but power to them. They are having a great time. Sorry that Christ is not in their lives but that is not my problem right now. Maybe later I can show them the God of their understanding so that they can be encompassed in a love eternal.
