Tonight

 I worked from 2:45 PM to 7:45 PM.  I went in, and learned masks will be required of even the vaccinated.  This is an expected development.  Hence why I continued to wear my mask.  To social distance.  Eventually, a time will come when it will lo longer be time to wear a mask and social distance.  But right now, that is the way of things.  All I did today was gather carts, and sweep the side walk.  I need to get in there and start bagging.  After all, that is a part of my job.  I helped a couple customers with groceries though.  

I just took out the garbage.  Garbage here on my street is Tuesday, and Friday.  That means setting out the trash on Monday Night and Thursday night.  Also, on Thursday night the recycle goes out as well.  Not to interesting.  But it does set myself a good reminder.

What is interesting is that my brother William handed me a copy of Mapping America: Exploring the Continent.  I had heard of this book in school.  It is a much needed addition to my list of history and geography books.  Thanks Mom!  Mom says she thought I would enjoy it.    The first chapter is marked, "America-- the future of mapping since 1507" by Frank Jacobs.  The introduction delves into Lester John, terra incognita, and Marco Polo.  Then, goes into describe how Columbus landed on an unknown continent.  That the European empires were taken by surprise by the discovery, in such, that they rapidly hired soldiers, explorers, and mapmakers to help forge their empires and as the book said, "close the vacuum".  

Cover of Mapping of America
I am so glad to add this volume to my collection of History, Geography, and Geology books.  Thanks again Mom!  I am glad Amazon had a picture of the cover of the book.  Having an image to post makes sharing my blog much easier.  It probably makes reading my blog more enjoyable.  

I checked on Yahoo.  Not much of interest on there.  The free news source is letting me down.  Well, thats ok, I can pick back up with Yahoo tomorrow.  I did see one news story claim that Conservatives in Florida are rushing to get the COVID-19 vaccine.  Other than that, it looks like Yahoo is safe for another day.  Well, time for me to log off for a while.  Hope you have had a good day.

The Messiah Comes

 My friends, brothers, and sisters.  Shalom.  JESUS is truthful.  JESUS saves.  JESUS is our Lord, Savior, and Friend.  He fulfilled the law.  So, that we will not be judged, you see by the law, but we will be judged by the Blood of JESUS.  The blood saves us, and makes us clean, before the Father.  We need to believe in JESUS to be saved.  Each of us will give an account to GOD.  BUT when we call on JESUS we will be saved.   I feel like I am in a prison, of hostility from a certain person.  I consider this, my thorn in the side.  For some reason, they will not even let me apologize.  I must honor this, because I said, "Thy will be done".  Never tell a woman, this.  Because there is a false teaching going about, that women do not need a savior- do not need JESUS.  Let me tell you, that JESUS went to women- if women did not need JESUS, He would not have gone to the woman at the well.  JESU...

Wear Masks and Social Distance

 Hi.  I am worn out like everyone else.  But we need to keep going.  We need to continue to wear masks and social distance.  These are the safety measures provided us to make it through the COVID pandemic.  The CDC is the authority yes, but that authority has already taught us what we need to do in order to make it through the pandemic. I woke up this morning and felt compelled to write "continue to wear masks and social distance". Over Memorial Day weekend.  My brother and two sisters went to San Marcos for the weekend.  I think they had a  nice adventure.  The first picture they showed on there Facebook, it looked like nothing was there.  But as they went along they showed pictures of the river, and more than one coffee place.  William, Elizabeth, and Meagan have several portrait photos of themselves.  They were smiling and happy.
