Sure is a rainy Sunday

I think we're getting close to our forty days and forty nights of rain. And we don't have an ark.
The rain would be okay except that we couldn't have church this morning because we still have the drive in services. And since we only have services twice a month, it will be quite a while before we can go again.
This month has a fifth Sunday and my husband has been invited to preach at another church on the Pamilco Sound that day. I hope to sing a couple of songs. But we heard that someone there tested positive for Covid, so we'll see if we go or not.
My husband's napping, but later we'll watch a sermon from Brian Biggers of Lamb's Chapel in Haw River, NC. He's so anointed of God...his preaching is so down to earth and understandable.
I'll think of something to cook for dinner later. Yesterday was good...sausage, potato salad (from Walmart and doctored up, but still wasn't very good), fried squash...best part of the meal...and fried corn bread with fresh cold tomatoes.
Hope you all are having a great Sunday. Talk to you later!

Well, I was actually exaggerating a little. We just get rain almost every afternoon for a while now.

@1creekgirl Still it is strange to have rain at every afternoon for so many days.

Not raining here yet, but it is supposed to. I am trying to get friend out there to do some cutting before it does.

Are you talking about cutting your grass? My husband's had a time trying to get our yard and the field mowed.

I don't envy him that nasty stuff he'll have to drink. Hope all goes well and he gets a good report.

I have never liked any store bought potato/macaroni salad or cole slaw.
We actually have a little bit of sunshine this morning, something we haven't seen in awhile either.
We will have some left over baked chicken and some sides. Mike will be going over to spend the night with his Mom this evening.
No church for us this week. Our pastor stopped services last week and this week because the number of corona cases in our county was rising and he wanted everyone to be safe.
Enjoy your day.

How are Mike and his mom doing now? I know the loss of his dad has been hard for all of you.

@1creekgirl She has her moments. I can't imagine losing someone after being married 70 years.

@1creekgirl aside from my home church senior pastor, I like listening to Craig Groeschel and Steven Furtick.

Who's the preacher you like to listen to? I'm so glad we can do that too, since church services have been affected by the pandemic.

We just had a thunderstorm move through; but we haven't had an overabundance of rain. You have a great Sunday too.

We have thunderstorms that pop us most every afternoon. No long ago we had Hurricane Isais come through, but we're thankful we had no damage. Although the county next to us had some homes destroyed and two people were killed.

That quite a lot of rain to imagine... I hope some rainbow will appear in your area. It is raining here also but the last couple of days was sunny.

Yeah, I love when God sends a rainbow to remind us that He will never destroy the earth by water again. Next time will be fire, according to the Holy Bible.

My Sunday was nice and relaxing after being gone for 3 days on vacation. We haven't had rain here in almost 2 weeks we sure could use it. Says a chance of rain today or tomorrow I sure hope it does.

We have been watching church on tv since March. Not the same as going in person but better than nothing

We forget though, that we wouldn't last long if we never got any rain.
