A day of rest

Christ commanded that we take a day of rest.   That is assumed to be Sunday but I find that I need snippets of mental rest on other days as well.  This is one of those days when I need mental rest.  I can snatch the hours where I can find them.  Debbie came to do my hair, I put on a new outfit from QVC and I loaded up the jewelry.  Joan Gohn and I are going to Pagoda to eat lunch and visit.  We rest with each other mentally.  Debbie asked me what Joan felt about the election and I said I had no idea.  It is not a subject we discuss.  I don't know why!  It may be that we don't wish to trample on guarded ground but it does not come up.   That will be a conversational relief.

And we know so many people in Cape that we will run into all sorts of people.  Our time together is fun and different.  If I want to expound okay, same goes with her.  We have traveled the world together and she is, first and foremost, for me!  She always has my back and I have hers.  That is a wonderful gift to give to another at any season of the year!

 
I think of Joan as a person who "stills the storms" for me.  I think Christ put people into other people's lives who serve as "storm-stillers".  I hope that some people think of me as one also.
