Saturday Stuff

• Sun is out and it feels warmer than it is; 41 degrees F., which is unusually cold for Corpus Christi, TX.

• Daughter MJ and I saw "Avatar" today. I'm so glad I saw it; without her, I never would have seen it in a theater. 3-D is a must! It was fun, beautiful, and mythic--and reminiscent of a video game with the fight sequences. This is the fourth movie I've seen in two weeks, which is probably more than I'd usually see in an entire year in a theater!

• I am praying for my church All Saints Episcopal Church. We've had a difficult 2 1/2 years: pastor of 17 years left; interim priest; wonderful new priest; clergy misconduct of first rector comes to light; and now wonderful not-so-new priest is being considered as a candidate for Bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Wyoming. Sandy is so exceptional and also beloved in Wyoming (where she used to be) that I cannot imagine she would not be elected on March 20. I dread the whole interim/search process again so soon, but I don't want to hope or pray that Sandy is not selected.
  

• MJ goes back to school in San Antonio on Monday.
  

• Husband CB is in the All Saints Choir. Tomorrow afternoon there is a special choir performance at church. Following that is a choir party at one of the members' home. Potluck; I am taking the easy Symphony brownies, where you put Symphony chocolate bars in between two layers of brownie mix, like this. Very easy recipe, but so good.
