refreshment

It's hot and muggy again 'round these parts. We could use something refreshing.

.

The search for a replacement camera is exasperating! I feel like I can get close enough to feel excited about an option... and then the rug of opportunity gets pulled from under my feet. That, and a few other things have left me weary. I find myself wanting refreshment fulfilled from things or people. I must be careful about that, because in truth, I have many things to be thankful for. And there is a higher source of refreshment than my circumstances and surroundings.

Blessed is the man

who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,

nor stands in the way of sinners,

nor sits in the seat of scoffers;

but his delight is in the law of the LORD,

and on his law he meditates day and night.

Psalm 1:1-2

left hanging

I don't like always being the last to leave. It makes me feel like I've overstayed my welcome. Sunday, we had lunch with one of the study groups from church. When I felt it was time to round up the troops and make our way home, they didn't seem to get it... that it was time to leave already. So, I took the initiative to step out the door, and wait outside. Tick-tock, tick-tock...

So Friends, did you ever get so bored, standing around that you snapped a photo of your own lens cap?

Whoa. If you click to enlarge the picture and look down at that angle for a bit, it'll make you a little dizzy.
