Some suggestions were engaging  in prayer for patience.

Another suggested praying for the offending driver, specifically that he would learn how to drive

But nearly everyone (including the pastor) admitted that their first inclination would have been  to react in a manner similar to my own.⁷

I think vixmom could have further used this as an opportunity to teach a lesson to the other driver, perhaps by getting out and standing in front of his car and reading a few selections from the Bible.

That might have pleased the other drivers waiting in line, as well.

I think it cost me $678 when I had problems with the CACOETHES in my furnace two weeks ago.

A book special would be nice.....but affording it for me might be another story....perhaps finances will be better in a few weeks though.....

I am home from all errands.  Broadway Farms has redone its geography and I hate it.  We need a good Big Supermarket close to hand.

I would have been home 30 minutes earlier if the jerk lab technician had shown up at 8:00, the time of my appointment, instead of 8:30.

As soon as I got home, I did kitty cleanup, and now I'm having some breakfast.  Once I make the bed, I will clean off the table, clear everything off the stove, and prepare to make soup.

Oatmeal with flax seed, pumpkin seeds and fresh strawberries has been consumed

You are eating a better breakfast than I eat.

I slept straight through the night and woke up a few minutes before the alarm went off

Great.

I also slept fairly well.  Every time I woke up I managed to fall right back to sleep, until 6:45.

It happened to be at the light just before the train crossing, and as luck would have it, after the light turned red again, the train signals lit up, the barriers came down and we were stuck while the train trundled through.

Groan.

The person in the car ahead of me was apparently so amazed by this phenomenon that he was unable to move when the barriers went up and the light turned green again...and so we sat through yet another cycle until the light turned red once again.

Did you honk for the second green light?

And my horn blowing was insufficient to interrupt the conversation and incentivize the driver to , you know, DRIVE.

Oh.

I had to wait 20 minutes for my chest x-ray after making an appointment to guarantee the time.

Soup's on!  The beef is cooking in a broth of beef stock, water, onion, bay leaf, and celery.  It smells great.

My doctor just called me as a follow-up to my email to her yesterday, asking me for a full account of everything following the colonoscopy.  I like her a lot.

The soup sounds great DR ELMORE.  I am eating the last of the chicken & noodles I made on Monday, so I probably won't cook until Sunday......
