If misery loves company, there is certainly a feeling of togetherness around a good part of the nation. Winter has its icy and snowy grip from the west coast all the way to New England. The air is bitter cold from the Inland Northwest across the northern Plains while a blizzard is in progress over the Upper Mississippi Valley. Here in the Spokane area the weather is cold and quiet, and will stay that way until the weekend. A little snow is in the cards for Saturday and Sunday, but it looks like just that...a little. By morning the temperature will be down around zero again (we're not that far above it right now!), and afternoon highs on Wednesday will be in the mid teens once again.
This is a busy week at the church, getting ready for all of the things related to Christmas. We have our second Advent supper study tomorrow evening, and I have a couple of assignments for my seminary class due by the weekend. Somewhere along the way I have to put together a sermon for this Sunday, and finish planning the services for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day. Throw into the mix a trip to Springdale, in Stevens County, on Friday, and Ritzville on Saturday to officiate basketball games and there isn't a lot of time left. Oh well...it makes the time go by quickly!
