QUESTIONS

The church was full of darkness, cold and empty when the minister arrived.
The power was off. Would the power come on in time for our worship service?

Chairs were set up in the hall just in case.  It would not be the first time we have sat in the hall with our coats and Jackets on.  Huddled together to keep warm.

By the time we arrived the power had been restored and one by one our friends arrived.  People are welcomed and we find our regular pew.  The question we ask each other when we gather for coffee is where are you going to be going to church?  People will be spread out allover the place but the main little group are going to attend Crossroads Church on Scott Road.

We may go there or we may go to the bell center.

The question this morning is how is Mary?

What will happen at the polls on this election day.  Craig has become very knowledgeable as he has put his heart into running for office.  Leah has been a big support.  We hope the Green Party will do well.  Craig's parents, Germaine and Willy are here to help over these last busy few days.

The question will be about whether whatever party is elected they will keep their promises.  

Dad has his appointment with the eye specialist about the small growth in the corner of his eye,  It will be good to know just what it is.  Cancer or not?

We were happy that Sandra and Randy were taking us out to lunch to a nice quiet place at the Hotel.
It was very quiet with only one other couple there.  We enjoyed our meal and our time together.

Then it was time to return home and see if Spenser would go for a walk.  He does not like the rain but after waiting all day he was ready and we enjoyed our walk together.

Am I happy that we have Spenser?  Yes we both are.

Today we will have some answers but life always continues to question us.

One thing I believe is that after this life there will be  many answers to our questions about suffering and the meaning of this life!

We are getting out to vote tonight as we missed out on early voting last weekend. Gorgeous front entrance at Sandy &Randy's! Love that color. I'm so glad you guys are enjoying your new little pup. They really do bring a lot of joy. Even on the days they drive you nuts hah. We had to take out little black female cat Brimo to the vet friday. She needed a dental cleaning and to have a canine tooth extracted. She was not happy about not breakfast but she did well and it's all over and done. As much as I dislike taking my furbabies to the vet I am very grateful we have such wonderful knowledgeable ppl who do that work. The cost came in lower then the original quite, which made us very happy.

Nice to hear from you Shandel.
I was asking Sandra if there were any new news.

We are going out voting after grandpa sees the eye doctor.

Another rainy day.

Our pup had his teeth pulled when he was at the shelter.

His barking can be annoying but it gets our attention.

Love gramam
