Lazy Sunday….Or Draggy Sunday?
June 10th, 2007Hey, all. Sorry I haven’t been in to do an update about what’s been going on since we moved. I just haven’t been enthused when I’ve had the opportunity, and when I HAVE had the opportunity, I haven’t been enthused. Kinda sucks, huh?
Anyway, it may (or may not) get done again today. Today has been kind of a lazy Sunday….or draggy Sunday….or something. Just haven’t felt like doing much of anything today, especially this afternoon.
We DID go across the street to the church this morning for the first time, though. It’s a Lutheran church, and I had never attended any Lutheran services before. Interesting, but too much like the Catholics, if you ask me. Though it WAS nice to meet a few of the people that we always see over there and be able to put names with the faces now!!! And we talked to a couple of our neighbors for a little bit. May have gotten some help with our raccoon problem (which is a WHOLE other story for another entry). The people behind us have suspected they had a raccoon in their barn, but they couldn’t prove it. They weren’t too excited about the fact that he has been visiting my goose/duck pen at night. The man who lives behind us has a cousin who lives up about two blocks. The cousin and his wife don’t like raccoons because they tear stuff up and such. So the cousin and the guy from behind us were talking about finding a trap and trying to catch him. That would be good, considering this raccoon killed one of our geese two days before last. (The geese are ANOTHER story for another entry, too!)
In addition to that, we found out the church across the street IS having Vacation Bible School the first week of July. I will probably try to get my “buddy” over there for at least most of it.
I also found out from the cousin’s wife why people around here lock their cars when they come to church. It’s because they don’t want any “surprises”, like vegetables from somebody else’s garden and such….*L* She said that’s the only reason you lock your house around here too….because, if you don’t, you’ll come home some day to a whole bunch of squash or something on your kitchen table….*L* Yep, we moved to a REAL exciting town. We don’t lock our cars at church because we don’t want stuff stolen out of them….we lock them because we don’t want extra stuff “appearing” in them…*L* Interesting, isn’t it?
Yep, we have definitely moved into an interesting little community!!! More details on that though, as I get more time and enthusiasm.
I’ll TRY to get enthused enough to post a picture or two of the house one of these days soon too.
Other than that, not much going on around here….or maybe that’s TOO much going on around here…..*shrugs* I have NO idea.
Anyway, I seem to have lost the enthusiasm to write, so will sign off for now. Thanks for the support!!!…*hugs* to my friends and family
