Inbetween Time

It's that time between Christmas and New Years. Being a teacher for thirty odd years always meant this was a time of respite and of recharging of the batteries. Working now in the church, it means coming off perhaps the busiest time of the year. Rest and recharge remains for me an important part of this 'in-between time.' Perhaps it is for everyone. It will be hard to get back to the old schedule after New Year's Day... but still, that's what we'll all have to do. Rats!

Ice Day

Today was an "ice day" for Benton Community, as well as Cedar Rapids schools. It was a good day to stay off the roads and work in the office. Afternoon and evening activities in parish had to be cancelled. Tomorrow is to be better, although temps may not be high enough to melt the ice. We are starting out this 'winter thing' altogether wrong in my opinion.
