On Wednesdays I usually go to Rotary and Dee goes to Contours. Yesterday at Rotary we honored some students from Mars and Pine Richland schools who came with their parents. It was interesting to hear how these high school seniors worked at various service projects during the year. It was also fascinating to learn of their aspirations for college and future careers. When asked what they'd do if they were ethe President of the USA, they each had an informed comment about where they would start. Some focused on the economy, others our international image, others on the environment and still others on renewable sources of energy so we don't rely so much on oil. It was a god meeting.
During the afternoon we just hung out since it was raianing all afternoon. Dee made this really great metloaf for dinner that was awesome! I went to the church choir rehearsal. Again attendance was sparse with several women and just two guys and we sat on the risers for practice (Note: when you sit on the risers yourknees are above you waist and it's hard to sing. And again the organist played a cd for us to sing to - quite different from what I was used to with Linda and Paula. I think the organist creates the cds so that the music can be played while she directs.)Regarding the low attendance, they said at this time of the year, people often have other things to do. We went over a couple of songs for the fall and then focused on the music for this Sunday. It has a nice calypso beat and is fun to sing. I learned that we'll sing for both the 8:30 and 11 AM services. Since Kerri is coming home, I may only do the early service and spend time with her at breakfast for the rest of the morning, before she has to head back to Bethesda. It'll be great to see her again. I'll sing this Sunday to give it a try, but I'm not sure I'll stay with it.
