This morning was grateful to be able to sleep in a bit. When I prayed I remembered that yesterday morning Thinking the most precise words that have ever come to me in morning prayer. But, this morning my thoughts were groggy and I could barely get through them. I was grateful to see the parable of the 3 talents and hear the songs on The Friar with my kids.

I got the kids to play outside all morning. I had a talk with them early about following directions and I applied consistent discipline all day instead of pleading. But, I still griped a few too many times. I resolve not to gripe tomorrow.

I did some much needed yard work in the storage part of the back yard.
I cooked lunch and dinner.
I repaired bike tires.
I got to practice baseball with my son and watch the astros.
I forgot to return a couple of calls.

It was a good day, thanks be to God.
