Life on Rural Street

i'm tired today. not so much physically as mentally, although i could take a nice long nap about now.

poor gavin got stung by a wasp right under his right eye on friday afternoon. he looked so pitiful friday night all swollen. and apparently, i missed the worst of it. by the time i saw him he was in a fine mood (he was the center of attention and he loves that) i still felt so bad for him though. i think that when i'm a mother some day i'm going to be a horrible worry-wart! but maybe that's part of being a mom.

this weekend was good. very busy but good. saturday night's music was a bit rougher than john and i prefer it to be. but sometimes that just happens. i'm learning there is not much we can do about that sometimes. sunday was good. it was the first time i helped to lead the music portion of worship at the open door and i really enjoyed it. what a receptive, welcoming, warm group of people. wednesday night is the "community dinner." john and i are going. it is an appetizer theme so i think i'll make something vegetarian so i know john will have something to eat. i always tend to do that at "potluck" type events. i have to watch out for him!

on july 31 communion is being served at cw. john and i are thinking (along with some other folks) of having round tables set up for worship and then having the congregation participate in communion at the tables. a sharing of a meal. post your thoughts in the comments section - good idea? sucky idea? why?
