A night at the museaum ...after a day of snaking wires!

The Currier had the opening night for its new exhibit "The Secret Life of Art" tonight. My wife and I attended with a friend. After that it was out to dinner. All in all a fun event but with so many people there it will require us to go back to get a better view when the crowds are less. It was also nice to see a couple who were on my Monday Zimmerman house tour there as well. Getting involved with the museum has been both a lot of fun and rewarding. I have never been big on speaking in front of people but leading the tours forces you to overcome it.

During the day, it was finally tine(after three and a half years) to go up into the attic and snake wires for the surround sound system in our den. With a shallow roof, it was no peice of cake. Maneuveribility was extremely limited. But success was finally achieved - thank God!

The eyes seem to be slowly improving which I am extremely grateful for. And, last night, after choir practice I had a long discussion with our church deacon who was diagnosed in March 2009 with leukemia. She related how an acquaintance of hers who contracted the exact same disease that she had didn't make it. What determines who makes it and who doesn't? I most assuredly do not know. I never really prayed for recovery, I prayed that I be able to accept God's will for me. The fact that it appears to be recovery only begs the question all the more - why me?

God's will is not for us to understand - it is for us to accept...
