Yes, it's Sunday once again, did you remember to go to church today?

I forgot till it was too late, dang'it.

There are signs all around my neighborhood announcing that there is going to be a "walk about" today starting at 5:30 p.m. What the heck is that? Bringing church to the neighborhood? Will they stop at my house and sing hymns?

As for going to church today, does going to look at the "about to flood" little cottonwood creek running through Murray Park count?
It's getting real over there,folks.

My local ward does the walk about thing too. It’s an attempt at creating a social activity. A few families in the ward host and they place a table with cookies and punch (or more likely water) in their yards. You’re supposed to walk to a hosting house or two and visit with neighbors and ward members along the way and get a treat.

I did! What else would you expect from a TBM.

A neighbor of mine talked to me about attending church, as a kindness, with her grown foster son. She spoke about it with good will, but also the complete puzzlement of the unchurched. Good luck to the the missionaries trying to sell the Mormon church to people like my neighbor.

I went to brunch with two friends from my childhood church, so I’m counting it.

I went to my friends cabin at our nearby national park and enjoyed some cold beers and friendships.

It was Summer. A family who are very dear to me invited me to spend te afternoon with them. Cold beer, snacks, dogs and kids all over.

Yes, I did. Band practice with the guys from 11:00 to 3:00.

I brought my new Gibson 50's Les Paul Standard with P-90 pick ups and it was truly a religious experience. A couple of cold beers was nice too.

I had no intention of going at all.

as I can't remember what day of the week it is. It seems like Sunday more often than it should. Haven't been to church in 25+ years.

I work at home and on my own schedule, so I have no schedule, so my days do get mixed up.

gemini, we had a trailer park where quite a few people park their 5th wheels and motor homes flood by where I walk my dogs some of the time. They all had to move out and it is still getting deeper. Luckily, I don't live close enough to a river or any water to have to worry. I haven't gone over and looked at Hyrum Dam. I wonder how that is.

Maybe if I lived closer to a meetinghouse I would take my garbage to the church. Garbage begats garbage.
