Happy August 16! Friday, I was on my way home from work, listening to the Fish on the radio. They had not yet played the Fish money song and then a few minutes later, a song came on. "Oh, that's the song!' I thought to myself. I got my phone out and went down to the Fish and called just after it had started playing. I heard, after a short pause, 'caller...8'. I quickly called again and got a busy signal. See, they take caller ten as the winner. I was SO CLOSE! That was the first time I had gotten through. Oh, the song was Shackles by Mary Mary (hence I thought it would have been cool if I won). The 10th caller was Marina who was very glad to get the money as she is getting married next weekend. So I am glad it wasn't me who was the 10th caller as she sounded like she could definitely use the money.
So, on my walks with the dog this week, I have been noticing grasshoppers. They have been on the sidewalk as I am walking down or up the street. I think I have mentioned them before in a previous posting. God was very clever when He made grasshoppers.
The Olympics are still going, just to let you know. It has been fun watching the girls gymnastics all-around final on Thursday night as I watched until 1:30 in the morning. I amazingly was not all that tired at work on Friday from staying up late. Nastia Liukin deserved the gold, I think. She did a great job in every event, and not to count Shawn Johnson out. She got the silver so it was cool that we got gold and silver. A Chinese gal got the bronze.
Misti May and Kerri Walsh played again on Thursday versus Norway (if I remember correctly). They were tied 1-1 after the second set and they won the third and final set (which only goes to 15, not 21). Hoorah!!! They are really fun to watch!
Well, my family is away on vacation as of today so I hope they all have a good time.
'But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God--and righteousness and sanctification and redemption--that, as it is written, 'he who glories, let him glory in the Lord'. 1 Cor 1:30-31
