Rest and waiting for updates

Our Father, we pause, to give thanks for the rest of the night – for the beauty of this day and the opportunities it brings for each of us.

Guide us that we might use wisely these opportunities: that we might reach out to others in need of a kind word or deed and to do so with compassion and humility.   Amen

Waiting for Windows updates…thought this was done last night at 12:30am. Silly me. 

Today’s Dad prayer is parked on my spinning laptop. The waiting affords me time to, yes, be grateful for a night’s rest. Grateful for a beautiful day. A beautiful Friday!

(PS, it’s jeans day!)


Update 8/21/2020 This entry was from the beginning of this blog process. I had not yet standardized the index card to be the actual same calendar day. Hence, the card date is 5/1 and the blog date was 7/14/2017. Good thing I developed a system, this was nuts!
