We were up and off by 10 am this morning. It was a good thing that we left when we did, because we ran into one bad traffic accident and miles and miles of freeway construction. But we arrived in time and enjoyed attending the baptism and confirmation of Chase Joseph Rosbach. We were relaxed about lunch at Shelli's and didn't leave until near 2 pm about an hour later then we had supposed. One very different thing about my routine that was different for today was that I had actually shaved for the occasion. I haven't yet decided if I will skip that tomorrow, or will decide that I need a bit of a shave in the morning. When we arrived at the church in Kaysville we saw Nicholas and found out what had happened to cause his obvious injuries. He had a scrape on his right cheek, and his right eye was quite swollen. His left had was scraped up a bit and the inside of his right ankle had quite an abrasion. He had ridden a small motor cycle and took "too wide of a left turn" and crashed, hence the entry in his Facebook and the evidence on his person. I'm sure that he will be quite sore for some time. Oh, and he also injured his right should and bumped his head. Of course, we hope that nothing serious developed and he will heal completely and before he leaves for college next month!
The rest of my Saturday was spent in leisure. I was completely out of the mood to do any real serious work so I took advantage of the day and just hung around the house. Sheila did make one trip to buy some magnets (you'll have to ask her about that) and took a lot longer because she ran into Kathy Garner. Kathy is a friend from the old 35th ward days and Sheila was able to catch up some on her life story which has a pretty good ending, but some rough times as she got a divorce after 42 years of marriage. Her ex played a role in my life during his reactivation many years ago in the ward, but was an example of what not to do in his subsequent years. You just never know how things will turn out, and there are surprises around every corner. I am still watching and waiting for that big adventure that may or may not happen in our life.
