Sunday Matters: Happy Father’s Day

Sunday Matters

Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there! The Hub is going to Seattle to visit my son. They have a ball game planned, lots of food indulgences and I will be home with my books and the pup. A nice, quiet weekend. 

Right Now:

I do have student ministry today. We’ll see what the turnout is since it is Father’s Day. 

This Week:

I am hosting book club this week and we will be discussing Census by Jesse Ball. It was a very interesting read. Curious to know what the group will say about it. 

At the end of the week, I will be seeing two performances of Oliver at our local PAC. It’s the same theater group my kids were in, but now I go to see our students perform. They have split casts so I will see it twice to see both casts. 

In other news, my daughter got promoted to manager at the coffee shop she works at in Missouri. She also got the lead in the fall show!

My son is doing well in the Pacific Northwest and his non-profit, which I don’t think I’ve mentioned here is booming. Check it out: Bunker Arts Collective.

Bunker Arts Collective (BAC) will create a robust mural arts and community volunteer program to combat widespread vandalism and blight negatively impacting small businesses, community organizations, and residents throughout the City of Everett, WA.

Support BAC here!

I’m almost done with One Big Happy Family by Jamie Day. It started off a little slow but now I can’t put it down. It comes out 7/16!

I’m also listening to King’s new one, You Like It Darker. Some stories I am really into, and others seem a bit brief. King has many short story collections and many are really good, but I do prefer his doorstop books. I REALLY get into those and love every minute. 

Grateful for:

Bar shampoo and conditioner. It has really made a difference in my hair growth. I included the link above because so many of you said you struggled with hair loss as well. I really didn’t know what to do. The docs said the surgeries were a shock to my system and they didn’t really have any recommendations for me. I searched and found these bars. After just five uses I saw a difference. Not sponsored. Just sharing. Plus, they are good for the environment!

Sunday Matters: The Warm Weather Has Arrived

Sunday Matters

Our  weather has been really lovely for months. Sunny, but on the cool side. This past week the temps have jumped up and boy do I feel it on that long walk back to the car after work. It definitely feels like summer!

Since we don’t have any big plans for the summer I am looking forward to putting some things in order around the house. I’ll be the first to admit that the house took a backseat during my recovery but things are slowly getting addressed. Like my closet, and my book stacks. Ahem.

Right Now:

Student ministry this morning into the afternoon. We are beginning a new series today so I am looking forward to it.

This Week:

I don’t have much going on this week. I need to sit down and plan out what food to serve when I host book club on the 19th. I was a little worried about getting home from work in time to entertain but I just noticed that June 19th is Juneteenth and it’s a state holiday for me! Yay! I won’t have to rush home from work.

Grateful for:

Coffee/tea dates with friends. It’s always good to catch-up.

What’s new with you? What are you reading? Taking any trips?
