We got a later start than I wanted - I had a hosptial visit 30 miles away in the opposite direction. But my wonderful dh drove and I edited my sermon on the drive down and back (incurring only a minimum of motions sickness!)<br /><br />Thanks for all the encouragement. I was beginning to think something was wrong with me for being so tired already. It's good to know that I am experiencing a fairly normal adjustment fatigue. <br /><br />The trip away was good and it was fun to spend some time with my guys. And I found a really cute pair of boots for fall1 All in all a worthwile trip.<br /><br />Now to do a final read-through and edit before printing. I'm way too tired to post to my blog tonight, so if you want to read "Putting on Jesus," I'll have the link posted here tomorrow when I come back to read everyone else's sermons. <br /><br />Nite all!ramonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01034492637745064803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14710344.post-17506399432248193112011-09-03T23:33:00.045-04:002011-09-03T23:33:00.045-04:00Okay, I have a sermon with an ending, finally...bu...Okay, I have a sermon with an ending, finally...but it's WAY TOO LONG. 1538 words!

Am hoping it will help me help my church, and it's by the grace of God that a particular foundation is paying for it. I couldn't go if they weren't. Anyway, headed to bed - and I hope everyone has a beautiful day tomorrow.
