Thank you, all, for your prayers. We welcome your weekend prayers too!
An update on how everyone is doing.
1. I spoke with P. yesterday. He is taking short walks every day. His voice continues to sound good. The sternum takes a long time to heal so he won't be able to lift anything heavier than a bottle of milk or to drive (seat belt is problem when you're recovering from chest surgery) for a while, but he is making steady progress. The dog is a little frustrated because she can't go on long walks, but sometimes there are visiting humans who take her out for a romp. B. (P.'s partner) is tired.
2. Deborah hasn't checked in but I am assuming no news is good news, because if there were trouble I would have heard from her spouse. I've left a message for her.
3. I am still writing. There wasn't much time for it during my teaching week but since Thursday I have been back at it almost nonstop. Big push today and tomorrow (outside of liturgy and Lenten Series). Keep prayin'.
4. Moira has a tiny faint squeak of a voice. This is good news. It means the larynx is still functional.
5. Mimi didn't find her wallet, but she got a new credit card, and she hasn't let a nasty English cold stop her. She continues to enjoy England in the good company of Doorman-Priest and his delightful wife.
We remember Ian, who died yesterday, and his beloved Lisa, who has lost the love of her life. Paul has a moving memorial post and also posted another beautiful piece of music as Ian was dying.

It's a rainy day in Greensboro. Yesterday was a rainy day in Greensboro. The day before yesterday was a rainy day in Greensboro. I am gearing up to do some writing and also to visit the computer people a bit later.

Prayers for one and all. Thank you for lifting folks up at this time. And hugs for you as you write.

THINK NIKE ADVERTISING SLOGAN. DISAPPEAR THIS BLOG FOR A FEW WEEKS. GET IT DONE. OVER AND OUT.
I am weeping for Lisa's loss - oh my. I have been offline most of the weekend, this is so sad.
And as for my prayers for you, what I did not say on facebook was just how much I have held you in prayer. I had a real flow of work come out of me today and I prayed that similar things were happening for you.
As you all can see on "Wounded bird takes flight" Mimi's wallet is back!
Delivered one morning by the chauffeur himself who found it in the cab ;=)
