Chasing the Sabbath

…okay, so I just turned on public television to see Rick Steves twirling around in the Alps like Julie Andrews in “The Sound of Music” - mildly disturbing!!

This Saturday has been much like many others - I feel like I’m running, or at least jogging - racing toward the “finish line” of a reasonable bedtime - desperately trying to get everything done so that tomorrow morning goes well - or at least has no major catastrophes.

I wonder, “Is this how the Jewish people felt racing sundown before the Sabbath when they could do no more work?” It may seem like a random thought, but that’s nothing unusual for me…

One of the first things I said this morning - after asking what time it was (I slept from 10 to 7 - yippee!) - was, “I get these thoughts and ideas in my head - they roll around and around and try to make me crazy...so, if I don’t blog or write, then I’ll lose it.” But, I rarely have time to blog on Saturday, these days - and fewer people read on the weekend anyway, so I just have to hold it in until I get a moment to write…

…so, now’s my moment, and I have nothing…just random ramblings. And soon it will be off to the races again. Any minute, there will be a buzzer, a call, a crash - and I’ll be off.

But, tomorrow will be smoother for all of my craziness today - I’m just trying to pave the way for a great Sunday morning (which will be here at the crack of dawn)…

There’s the doorbell, so I better run!

Peace out. :-)

    Rick Steeves can be disturbing. What a job.
