ON A GOOD DAY
Our worth is tested every day. We are given the choice of being nice to people or uncharitable. We are given the choice of doing our work as well as we can or of goofing off. Some days it seems the tests are harder than on others, but every day brings with it some kind of test. Even the really good days! To have everything go wonderfully for us, to feel like a million dollars, to have one of those days when nothing and nobody can upset us, they are days when we might think we don't need God. And so we pay Him little attention. MISTAKE! BIG MISTAKE! We must never forget our good days are God's gifts to give us a breather, a taste of heaven. "Make no mistake about this," writes St. James, "Every genuine benefit comes from above, descending from the Father of the heavenly luminaries." Good days are made in heaven. Be sure to thank God for them. CDR Gary Simons, CHC, USN |

I just stopped by for a snack, and now we are at 84 with a shower cooling the air!! I bet the parks will be empty when I get back on my shift. Gonna be a slow night, which is OK with me.

Last night was slow as well, but having to wait until 11 PM for one group to finish was not very interesting.

Good evening, Cindy...a Blessed Lord’s Day to you and yours.
Thanks for the links. Sun is coming out, going behind the clouds, coming out, and going behind the clouds. Still hoping for rain. Gonna go water in a bit.
And now it is blowing and blowing hard...huge gusts!
