*Googles PLD*

...Promoting literacy development...
...Programmable logic device...
...Poor life decision...

:scratch:

Yep, I'll stick to liturgy!
PLD is short hand for Palladin for a video game Swan and I played together before we got married.

Swan is at a higher level than I am and in order to move forward in the story I need to be level 60 at least. I am level 59.

:ahah:

Have a funeral to take on Monday and they always absorb all available time to do well.

That is sure the truth. They are a good opportunity for ministry, but emotionally draining, lots of details, and you really don't want to mess them up!

Just catching up on old posts. Are you concerned about automation in the trucking field anytime soon?
No. What I’ve been reading, it’s at least 10 years away. And even then, it won’t be widespread for some time after that.

Wouldnt they still need to be manned even if all trucks went autopilot?

I know that even self driving cars are prone to sensor wear, not to mention other technical/electrical/software issues you would run into. I'd think youd still need someone onboard for the very least to monitor the self driving "vitals"

Yeah. I’m not sure how it will work, but I have another 15 years or so to work. So we’ll see how it goes.

My beloved has promised me a cooked breakfast. At the rate of discernible progress, I might possibly get it by lunch time... but one doesn't want to complain, given, you know, he's cooking me breakfast...

I found a gmail account that I haven't used in a few years, and I was looking through it, and found all these apology emails in my inbox from an ex bf who I blocked on my phone, and on social media. I must have forgotten about that email, and all that time, he had been sending me emails saying how sorry he was. Interesting, and I read a few of those emails tonight, and just deleted the rest. I'm past all that, of course, but really took me back to a time when I dated all the wrong men.

I forgive you M, and I wish you the best...for what it's worth. :sunflower:

Have just come in after taking Palm Sunday services. Am feeling exhausted and it's only the first day of Holy Week. Wonder if I can sneak in a nap this afternoon...

I got a call last night from our song leader. She was sick and unable to be at services today. So I and the lead guitarist had to put together a ste practice it and run it this morning. we did so and it went well but I was exhausted. Came home and crashed for the rest of the day.

Do you find that when you preach you get tired about two to three hours after? I do nearly every time. But if I have to preach multiple times it does not occur until after the last time. I don't know if it is related to adrenaline or something else. But it really wipes me out.

Leading worship has the same effect on me.

Yes, and it is not just nervousness. In fact, those times when I feel like the Lord most takes control of the message I am more tired later.

Have you ever learned about the enneagram? My daughter and I are obsessed over learning about the different personality types - and the enneagram seems to be so accurate and comprehensive. I wonder if you're more of an introverted person and all that sharing is draining to you? It seems like it'd also have to do with adrenaline as well (but I can't really relate).
