But the natural man receives not the things of the spirit of God; for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them for they are spiritually discerned.
Omigosh, did I ever get to move a mountain of leaves yesterday! You know how I posted time before last that I was "goin up the country"? I was actually going out to the farm and was going to maybe cut some firewood. But after listening to KState beat KU on the radio, we decided to gather up the leaves in Mom's yard. She was kinda dragging: she had been doing some raking and carrying leaves herself and I decided that was too strenuous of work for an 83 year old woman and those leaves had to go. As soon as I started raking and carrying, she fired up that monster riding mower of hers and blew together these giant piles all around the house (except on the front where she had already been). We spent about 3 hours carrying off that harvest. But it was one gorgeous day in the flint hills.

...Close your eyes close your eyes and forget all about us tonight.
MARY MAGDALENE:
I don't know how to love him. What to do, how to move him. I've been changed, yes really changed. In these past few days, when I've seen myself, I seem like someone else. I don't know how to take this. I don't see why he moves me. He's a man. He's just a man. And I've had so many men before, In very many ways, He's just one more. Should I bring him down? Should I scream and shout? Should I speak of love, Let my feelings out? I never thought I'd come to this. What's it all about? Don't you think it's rather funny, I should be in this position. I'm the one who's always been So calm, so cool, no lover's fool, Running every show. He scares me so. I never thought I'd come to this. What's it all about? Yet, if he said he loved me, I'd be lost. I'd be frightened. I couldn't cope, just couldn't cope. I'd turn my head. I'd back away. I wouldn't want to know. He scares me so. I want him so. I love him so.
We celebrated son Caleb's birthday (11/3) in Manhattan on Sunday. ( I am very thankful that we finally got our van fixed so that we could even make the trip. It was a very pricey fuel pump.) We had Thai and around the table were my 3 daughters and a boyfriend, Caleb and his friend Vicki, and my wife and I. The conversation was flowing and I wasn't keeping up but at one point Vicki told Caleb: "Don't look at me with those JUDGEY EYES" to which he responded, "Hey that was a blank look, no look at all - That was my DEFAULT FACE." It was a good time and we got home late but not too late because both Talli and Aurora who were with us had to go to work the next day.
