LAZY

Dad and I had a totally lazy day yesterday.  He watched the girls world soccer on T.V. with Canada playing Germany, the score was an amazing 2 to 1.  They scored on a penalty shot so it was very exciting.

Then he download pictures from his camera to my blog of Ben and Morgan.

All I did was sleep read and eat.  The book I read was "If the Church Were Christian" which is food for thought when you are staying home from church.  Recommended by Marcus Borg and also Barbara Brown Taylor both a little controversial.  It is more about being a follower of Jesus not a worshipper of his divinity.  A book of humor and insight into some of the contradictions in scripture and down  the road that theologians have taken us in the past.  Anyone who has really studied the Bible will have been
horrifies by some of the things it seems to accept and teach. 

"After all any god who would condemn billions of people the hell because the first couple sampled a bit of fruit seems at the very least eccentric, and at worse despotic."  The words of author Philip Gulley.

Dad and I went for a short walk in the forest where we have gotten really confident that we know our way around the many paths but ended in going in circles.  But the fresh air and exercise did us good.

Oliver and Theresa stopped by on the way to the ferry for Oliver to return to Victoria.  They brightened up our day. 

Today I will walk with Gunty and the lawn needs cutting again and I need to do some shopping.
Feeling much more energetic!


P S  Happy birthday Ben

Sounds like an interesting book. I worked on a bit more rearanging of things now we have the book shelves and then got to putter around in the garden before getting to my homework online.
