Labour Day

Well, it was nice to be able to get a handful of things done today.  I declined two different offers to go to the beach today (one being the whole Baxter family) mainly so I could get some things done before craziness hits tomorrow.  (Well, another reason I turned down the Baxter's offer to go to the beach with them was from what I've learned of girls over the past 3 or 4 years specifically.  They're biggest reason (usually) for wanting to go to the beach is to lay out on the sand and tan.   I have no interest in that and the beach is a lot less fun when you don't have people to hang out with, in general.  Yes Daniel went, but he took his bike to ride around and that doesn't interest me either, at least not in the way he want's to ride.  So I declined the offer, probably about an hour prior to their departure this morning.)

I went into town looking for a few things and I was shocked by how many stores are closed.  Especially Walmart.  From my memory, in the States Walmart is open 24/7 365 days a year except for 3 or 4 hours on Christmas morning.   Here in Canada, I haven't even found one that's open 24/7.   I thought at least a handful of decent stores would be open, at least for what I was looking for, but I was wrong, almost every store was closed.   I glad for the companies and for the employees.

I also got a lot of good time alone with God away from distractions and such, which I was very thankful for.  And I was also able to get a handful of Old Testament Survey's done.  I only have 5 left (I think).   Hopefully I can get them done before Bryce changes the password of this year's SLI class.

Though the day wasn't as productive as I would of liked it to be, I did get a lot done, and I am very thankful for that.
