Administrative Assistant and I walked out together today. I wanted to go the grocery store, and I was taking advantage of a day with no evening commitments. I was quite proud of myself. I had remembered my cell phone, which I forget at least 3 times a week. I'd remembered the lunch box I left at the church yesterday. I was quite proud of myself, until I realized my fanny pack with my wallet in it was still in my study. So once again, I pulled around and parked by the door and ran in to pick up something I'd forgotten. If they ever check the alarm records, they will discover several times a week I have to turn around to go back in and get something I forgot.
So I got to the grocery store, and I actually had a list that I made after reading the weekly ads. I ran into a couple of people I know, so several conversations and almost $90 later, I came home. I walked to the curb to pick up the mail, and realized why the lawn mowing went so quickly on Sunday. I was doing a diagonal pattern Sunday, so I started by going through the middle. Unfortunately, I forgot to mow the second side once I finished the first side. I did that Sunday, and didn't even notice until today. I pondered going out to fix it, and finally decided to close the garage door and come sit in the family room, where I can't see it.
Sometimes I worry about my brain and how it's working and the lapses I have. Most of the time I laugh. I'm always grateful that my brain does work when it comes to writing, preaching, and leading....
