I was going to be a good doobie, and write some more about the concept of “post-Christendom.” But it’s a rainy, nasty, raw, miserable night out, and I just don’t have the energy to do much of anything except sit and stare at the computer screen and not write.
Our regular letter carrier came into the church office this morning and said, “Looks like we’re getting our winter this spring.” So far, April has been colder, wetter, and nastier than January was around these parts. And snow has been forecast for tomorrow morning.
Someone remind me why we thought it would be a good idea to move back to New England.
sorry, from the land of sunny and 70, it won’t be me.

Enjoy the occasional lazy time! If Jesus couldn’t run off and hide now and then, who isn’t entitled to do the same?
ms. m — Oh, stop bragging about your great California weather, you’re making me sad.
UU Jester — Umm, wait, don’t you live in the Midwest which has only two seasons, horrible winter and beastly hot summer? Just sayin….
Jean — Oh. Oh, yeah. Thanks.
abs — Not so sure about that right now, what with snow forecast for tomorrow — snow in April for Pete’s sake!!
Lori — It really is yum.
Will — Wait, aren’t they spelled differently? –one is “doobee” and one is “doobie”? (((@%$#!! Oxford English Dictionary is no help on this one.)))
Um, because it makes you appreciate summer SO MUCH MORE?
