The weekend jumble

by chuckofish

Our weekend in flyover country was very cold–indeed, frigid. I wore my (vintage) fur coat to church, it was so cold. We did have a few diversions.

The boy came over with the twins on Friday in between a birthday party at the Mini Fig store and a date at the Cat Cafe (no school that day)…

Kirkwood is such a happening place. A Mini Fig store and a cat cafe.

Continuing the ‘In Memoriam Glynis Johns’ theme, we watched Mary Poppins (1964) and were reminded what a great movie it is.

Disney really peaked with that one. It had a message for all the parents in the audience, especially the fathers.

Thankfully, Mr. Banks is redeemed.

Sunday morning as we drove to church in the negative-five-degree cold, I said to the OM, “I bet [our old church] is closed this morning.” But we had an (almost) full house at our new one–everyone who stayed home missed a good class on Unconditional Election. Oh well. We hunkered down in the afternoon and attempted to stay warm watching the PGA in Hawaii.

Meanwhile daughter #2 et al are busily packing up their stuff and getting ready for the big move to flyover country at the end of the month…

…as well as Ida’s first birthday this week.

And I received this text:

Of course she did.

And this is interesting. Here’s the song that started Bobby Zimmerman on the road.

You’re drifting too far from the shore
You’re drifting too far from the shore
Come to Jesus today
Let Him show you the way
You’re drifting too far from the shore

–Hank Williams
