Cake on the floor

Well tonight I thought it was time to write a little something.
Today was my wonderful mothers 64th birthday and we needed to go and buy her a cake. I get a black forest cake put it in the cart, then go help David to pick out some flowers for our mum. We bump into some people we know and I work with, then a bit later I bash into more people I know... Now the store is full of people.......... so you know what is going to happen.
I go into line, pick up the cake ( by the top) and it drops from my fingers, trying to catch the cake as it falls to the ground my attempt becomes failure.. I'm covered in cake... the floor is covered in cake... my friends and co-workers are laughing.... strangers are smirking.
I can never seem to do a small act without gaining a crowed.
In the end I didn't have to pay for the cake and we got another one for our mother to enjoy.

When Life hands you lemons... The lemonade sure can make you bitter

I'm having a feel sorry for myself day, I just can't seem to cut a break.
I go to a store to make a print of one of my paintings for a friend and the printers broken... I get my new cell phone in the mail and I can't hook it up...
I get asked to go boating, I show up at the meeting place , look around, sit down wait an hour. Met this old man I know.. use his cell to find that they were looking for me ( how hard I want to know) Where am I I'm asked and they will come find me... wait another half an hour, call again to find they had been out on the lake this whole time not looking for me.
I just hate these kinds of days!!!!!!!!!

Old ladies and their hair of blue (what are they trying to prove)


Last sunday ( I was late for church again and hid myself in the back pew) I sat behind this older lady and to my joy and wonderment she had dyed her hair this light shade of blue. Women who do this have always brought wonder to me... why in the world pick that color? did someone play a mean trick and change their shampoo? Do they get hit on more in the old folks home for being young and playful?
Anyhow... My brother Dan was preaching so before he goes up I making comments on everything ( Bad I know and distracting to grace and this wonderful lady of blue). He gets up and starts talking about the temple and what they used to make the temple.
How they had this very poor knotted piece of wood but they covered the wood with a white sheet, copper at the base and sliver for the top. He talked about how we are all like the knotted wood but God covers us, so to the world we look white and pure from head to toe.
Then he went to give the example that we look to preachers and elders as pure and wonderful as the world looks to us but we can only see our knotts, but the elders and pastors are also only twisted and knotted. This was the part were out of my mouth comes a big HA! and I start to laugh.
Lady blue hair turns around to give me the dirtiest look, do you think I would then stop .... no I just laugh harder.
I just thought of the elders that look upon themselves and they see they are only saved sinners but I thought of how many were thinking how they might look to the people ( the truth is out). They have a rep. to uphold ( or so some think) Bad timing on my part but once I started I couldn't stop and the look from lady blue.....priceless.
