I'm having a lazy Labor Day. My neighbor is coming over later to help me clean the hot tub, but that's as close to hard work as I intend to get today. And since he's the one wanting to use it, I'll let him do most of the work.

Our Sunday was pleasant with church, lunch at Sicily's, a long nap, etc. Pam and Jean were back at St. Philip's yesterday. I'm hoping they move their membership there. We'll see.

I have unofficially adopted Jean as my 2nd mother. We seem to have more in common than I had with my first one. She looked so pretty yesterday dressed in a white summer suit, I really would like to make some pictures of her and get her involved in the writing of her life story that I've started (on the sly). I've written out these 50 questions and try to work at least 2 or 3 of them into every conversation I have with her, then come home and type them in while her remarks are still fresh in my memory. It will take many more conversations to get them all answered, but it's an excellent way to get to know someone better.
