I wanted to post something today, but really didn’t have a topic that compelled me to write about it. Rather, I had lots of bits and pieces, a potpourri, if you will. As I have not penned a potpourri in a long while, that is exactly what I will do.
First and foremost today, it is my sons 38th birthday. We called and sang him happy birthday first thing in the morning. He has been a blessing and a joy. While I might say , “I cannot believe it has been 38 years. It seems like just yesterday.” I think both are true. It does seem like just yesterday and it most definitely has been 38 years. He is now married and he and his wife have blessed us with three wonderful children.
Number two on my mind, this lovely day, is the Arab Concert of the Middle Eastern Music Ensemble this weekend. We have our last practice tonight, on Friday we have a workshop with our guest artist Huda Asfour, Saturday is the dress rehearsal, and finally the concert is Sunday late afternoon. This means I get to drive to Hyde Park four days in a row. While this would normally be a huge imposition. My schedule is so sparse this Memorial Day Weekend that I am actually looking forward to it
The next thing on my mind is the chaos that seems to be our Federal Government these days. The news is full Tax returns, impeachment, abortion, tariffs, infrastructure, and people already running for president instead promising to fix everything else instead of doing their jobs and fixing the issues now. These are the last things I want to be thinking about on such a lovely day.
Lastly, I am amazed two reports from possible fake news or parody sites:
- Kansas Police Urging People To Not Shoot Their Guns At Tornadoes
- Pastor arrested for selling tickets to heaven to members for $500 (After I posted the first on Facebook, Ara Topouzian posted the second as a comment.)
It is a beautiful day.
