April 2 – I Was Sure I Had Written This Last Night

I woke up this morning and wondered…did I write this post last night? I checked…nope. Getting more forgetful in my old age. Anyway, I finished my devotional (433 words) and editing early in the day. After that I did a lot of walking. That’s my major form of exercise. Then, I had both chess clubs – an elementary school and a middle school. The elementary school feeds into that middle school, which is the school I retired from. After that, I came home long enough to let the dog out and then went with my pastor to help him in ministry. He preaches and feeds people at a homeless shelter the first Monday of every month. He believes he needs to do ministry outside of his church duties and this is one way he does that. I’m privileged to work with him. Then, I got home, cooked dinner, and yes, that means we ate late. Somehow, after dinner, I should have written this and forgot. Oh well.

April 2 devotional – 433 words: April 2 – Coming Back to Life

Editing: up to June 18 (6 days worth…or wait..8 days?)

Today’s plan – write devotional, laundry, grocery shopping, editing, chess lesson, dinner with my wife. Life is good!

March 27 – Living With Routine

I need routine. This is the second day in a row that I’ve posted this update a day after things happened. My routine was disrupted by my wife coming home from a conference and I didn’t write last night. This morning was rough too because of routine breakers. I added a new chess teaching time today (yesterday of course) with a young man whose parents are friends. He was so far ahead of some kids and this was his first lesson. I asked him why he did something the way he did, which was the right way, and he told me that he figured it out on his own. I was blown away!

Anyway, the devotional of 456 words: March 27 – How Jesus Saw His Ministry 

I also edited 6 more days on my devotional book. I’m no up to May 12.
