A chilly, rainy day. The garden bed that I dug and hadn’t filled in yet is now a pond. On Saturday, when I bought my rhubarb, I picked some up for my friend (whose hobbit name is Iris Boffin of Needlehole.) Anyway, Iris had taken a day off from work today, so she came over… Continue reading Nothing much going on here.
I would love to comment
I would love to comment on the prayer service for women’s ordination but I have nothing intelligent to say on it — just a heavy sigh and a roll of my eyes.

The Crisis in Courtship Jeanetta
The Crisis in Courtship Jeanetta had juice — mental and electrical — enough to write a really greatblog on the problem of courtship. It’s such a shame.
