Bend down, O Lord, and hear my prayer;
answer me, for I need your help.
Protect me, for I am devoted to you.
Save me, for I serve you and trust you.
You are my God.
Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I am calling on you constantly.
Give me happiness, O Lord,
for I give myself to you.
O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
hear my urgent cry.
I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
and you will answer me. - Psalm 86:1-7 Favorite Blogs: |

| First leg done, but spent the day working and helping parents around the house and getting "online" resources set up. Drove the Camaro and then had a few drinks to try to relax...didn't work because had a hard conversation with our daughter due a "papa bear" response by me. Not a fine moment on my part.

| Tried to sleep in then worked. Went for a run/walk around 11am in shorts and tank top. Three issues: Felt like I was allergic to sunshine as my entire torso and lower body itched like crazy; aerobic capacity low due to elliptical workout and no run AND I still feel some residual lung capacity issues due to blood clots last year.
Another drive in the Camaro to try out a brewery that I have not visited yet.
Next leg starts tomorrow.
