Well Good Morning Saturday!. How did you sneak in here so quick? I see you didn’t bother to pick up a little warm weather as you came through. Although it isn’t too bad this morning at 34 degree. Yesterday was interesting weather wise. It was foggy all day. I haven’t seen a day like that I guess since the last time I was in Germany. I had a funeral to do yesterday morning and had to be at the church by 0930. It was foggy as I left the house and as I went north it got thicker and thicker. We all know I love a foggy morning but this got real tough to drive in by the time I got to the church. And —- it never really let up, We finished up everything we had to do at the churches by about 1330 and it was still foggy but to a lighter degree. By news time last night it was still foggy. Had I not had to drive in it, —- it would have been a perfect day. But, — this morning it is just cloudy and cold. Some areas of the Tri-state are allegedly getting snow but it appears that it will “go around us” again which suits me. 

The COVID variants are running rampant. Lisa and Gary both have it. Grandson Matt and his cousin are both probably coming down with it because they are both showing the symptoms. At least two more families at church have called me and let me know they have it. We had several folks out with it last Sunday too. I have posted on Facebook that I’d like everybody to pick up a mask as they come in the churches and put them on. We have them at all of the doors. It is just important that they do and keep from spreading this stupid thing. I hate wearing the thing but will if it helps. My biggest aggravation is that once again the “scientists” are arguing about what kind of mask is the best and protects us the most. That argument has gone on for two flapping years now. At first we were told that masks are of no value in stopping the spread. Then they said anything over your nose and mask will do. People started making hom made cloth masks and it was hailed as wonderful because there were “no masks available”. But then the commercial companies realized that they were not making a profit and suddenly the scientists decided that cloth masks offer virtually no protection. So people were buying what I guess are called “hospital masks” by the box. I have a box of them in my car and we have boxes at the doors of the churches. But now —- those are no good and don’t protect you. The only ones that are good are the N95 masks which no body seems to have. My theory is that as soon as they can raise the price to an appropriate profit level, N95 masks will suddenly be available everywhere. I fully realize that people are getting sick, some of them are getting really sick and a few people are dying. But this entire pandemic has been so linked to profit and confusing rhetoric that the trust factor in a “scientist” has gone out the window because of pride and politics. We’ve been bullied and shamed into taking three vaccines that were supposed to “keep us safe” and yeet it continues to spread. And just two days ago — Dr. Fauci, who is the alleged leading guru on all of this and the spreader of all the different theories said; “Well of course, everybody is going to get it! You just won’t get it as bad if you have the vaccines and buy the right masks and stay away from everybody”. It is so frustrating. But enough about that!

It’s Saturday and that means it is a weekend. I hope you have time to relax this weekend and get some rest. I hope you attend your house of worship and take time to thank God for your life and loved ones. No matter half bad you may think your week has been, God allowed you to wake up this morning and breathe fresh air. You have another day to do something for someone and make their life a little bit better. Yo know that “call” you’ve ben meaning to make to so and so? — Make it today. I bid you peace.
