This morning we went grocery shopping at both HEB and Walmart. Then after lunch at home I went to the Cowboy Church to finish checking the backs on the remaining chairs.
After getting back home I played with the derailleur on my bike some more, trying to get it to consistently shift correctly. As I have said previously, working on the bike is now my most time consuming hobby😖. This afternoon, after several tweaks, I managed a 10 mile ride (2 five mile rides with a 30 minute break to work on the derailleur and visit with a neighbor), I still have work to do. I think that when the previous owner had the bike the derailleur mount on the bike frame got bent. I've bent it back a little but am going to have to check out the derailleurs on some other bikes to make sure they look like I think they should look. Maybe I'm just to ignorant to get it adjusted correctly😀.
The weather was cool today. The high was a cloudy, breezy 69 degrees.
For the past several years I have regularly corresponded with a Christian cousin, Jeff, who is in prison. He is 7 years younger than me. His family moved away from our hometown when he was still a preteen, so I never knew him well. He has been in jail/prison since Dec 2009, for a stupid act of passion. His dad, who lived in another state and who had been to ill to travel long distances, died a couple of months ago. Jeff had not seen him for years but regularly talked to him on the phone. I got a note from Jeff today telling me that he was denied parole for the 3rd time. His note sounded like he is pretty depressed, he really thought he would make parole this time. If God moves you to do so, please pray for him.
God is good. I pray that He blesses you and yours. He has blessed me.
