SECOND AUGUST WEEKEND

H/T Katia.

Last Friday in his posting entitled “Bed Bugs” Linden said this:
“Of course Linden knows that it is quite a stretch to associate bed bugs with the political matters which are the normal focus of his postings: Quite a stretch but not beyond the realm of possibility.”

Before hearing of the Edwards affair, this was Katia’s response:
“Bed bugs are not such a big stretch with political matters. You just need to substitute political matters with political mattress. I know it’s cynical, but some politicians are like prostitutes, they don’t care in whose bed they end up.”

Friday: Men’s Prayer Breakfast at 6:00. Again today, Linden did a bit of outside work – including using the recently repaired hedge trimmer. Actually, it wasn’t the trimmer that was repaired. It was the electric cord which Linden had cut in two. When he moved here two years ago, he transplanted two butterfly bushes from the bush that Rubye had planted at the other place. One is making slow progress but it was thought that the other one was buried when some excavation work was done here. This bush showed up today, all dried out in an overgrown area. So, it was put in the goldfish pond to soak up some water.

Saturday: Linden borrowed a shovel at Church to dig a hole for the butterfly bush. There is probably little hope for it springing back to life. Then, used the hedge trimmer until it encountered a wire sticking up from the ground: Now it doesn’t cut at all – but, it does hum rather nicely. Visited a bit with the missionary family that is staying in the Mission House. They are very nice. We plan on going out to eat before they depart Wednesday.

Sunday: Church services, Sunday school, brunch with friends, paper reading and not much else worth mentioning.
