Tedious Tuesday

Yesterday was very fine.

Sunny, if way too cold.

I puttered around outside and then spent the rest if the day hysterically texting and making curriculum lists and counting days and weeks and quarters and then texting some more.

But the rain is rolling in again and I have some unpleasant tasks to attend to today and everyone seems fractious, so that's too bad. And King David, of the Bible, just numbered the people. In Samuel it says that God was angry with Israel and incited David to do this terrible thing. In Chronicles it says that Satan did it. Which proves my frequently made point that you can blame Satan all you want but at the root of it, you're really angry with God, and so you should be, since he's in charge of everything. But David is so surprising, wanting to fall into the hands of the Almighty rather than into the hands of men. That is the Opposite of how I practically live my life. Because, points out David, The Lord is so merciful. I'm so surprised that he knows this. Even Solomon doesn't really know this. I don't feel like I really know this.

But I guess I'll go with it, rain or no rain.
