This seemed like a long day. I hate to think that I'm a person who needs people in order to be happy, but the truth is, I get very bored with myself. This is Dick's evening to work at Advance Auto Parts, so I'm still in this quiet house. During the crazy busy spring I had at school, I would have been so delighted with a day like this, but not today. I did go to the gym and ran some errands. I also made a big pot of spaghetti sauce and arranged the music for a song that Jeremy wrote back in 2000 so I can use it with our worship team at church. It's an awesome song. If you all want to come on over I'll play it on the piano and sing it for you. (Do I sound desperate, or what??) Oh well, I'll just post the lyrics for you.
You Are Lord of All
Chorus
You are Lord of all, You are Lord of all,
You are Lord of all.
You are Lord of all, You are Lord of all,
You are Lord of all.
I will rise from these depths again,
I will learn to walk with You.
You will take me where I have never been before,
A place where eagles soar.
I have been through the fire and the flame,
I have walked through many storms,
And all have led me to this simple prayer,
That I would see my Lord.
Dick especially loves this song because before Jeremy moved to Florida in the summer of 2004, he and Dick spent Father's Day together with Anthony. That morning at Anthony's church the three of them did two songs together - Jeremy sang and played the piano, Anthony the guitar, and Dick the bass guitar. This was one of the songs they did. When they were finished, one of the "sisters" decided it wasn't time to be finished, and she got up and started the chorus again. Apparently it went on and on. Jeremy would sing a verse, then everyone would join in on the chorus, over and over again the way African Americans do it best! Dick was tremendously moved and blessed that morning.
Below I posted two pictures from yesterday. When I was taking Destiny to Lancaster the traffic suddenly stopped - all four lanes. When I saw the reason why, I whipped my phone out and managed to get these pictures! Destiny was so excited as we watched them join their family on the other side!

I think I get bored with myself too. Too bad we don't live closer, huh? Sounds like you were productive even if you didn't know what to do with yourself.
The song is cool...wish I could actually hear it. I'm all about worship songs like that.
And I had to giggle about you having to 'whip' your phone out for pictures. I noticed the other day when you did that how clear they were and I am impressed! Keep it up! :-)
Awwww...love the photos.
We're never satisifed are we? When things are crazy, we long for days all by ourselves. Then when a day comes and we're all alone, we long for some company.
Love the song. Wish I could hear the music too.
Hugs!

I am sure there is a way to hook up so we can hear that song. Your digital camera probably has a video setting. Do the YouTube thing!
I would've come over last night! We went for a walk - just on our stree - boy is it getting humid again. I want the weekend weather baaaaaack! Cute photos by the way!
Oh man, I wish I lived closer. I would have been over in a heartbeat!! I could have chimed in with some harmony. I can just hear it now.
