Was up early this morning picking up the donuts from Tecumseh as it is my turn this month. Instead of a Kiwanis speaker we had the Lt Governor installing the new officers for 2013/14. I was installed as secretary, but actually Louise and I are going to do it between us. Louise has a problem connecting to the internet, perhaps she didn't have a wireless connection, I didn't probe, but every organisation now has to be able to communicate online, all reports have to be sent online for example, so it is a relief to her that I will be able to do that (hopefully, ha ha). I had said I didn't think I could find speakers every week, so she is going to continue to do that, she has more contacts in the community than I have. Also I have warned them that I can't drive in the dark if an evening visit is required anywhere. I am alright along the main north/south, and east/west roads in Shawnee that have something which passes for street lighting, but outside the city limits it is totally dark.
Instead of going to Emmanuel for Communion then out to lunch I went instead to the Thursday service at the hospital for a change, it was a chance to see the other chaplains.
The weather is not bad at the moment, better than the intense heat we had. When I went out this morning about 7.30 I needed a slightly heavy skirt and sweatshirt, but by 10 o'clock I was back home changing into a summery skirt and tee shirt.
I took this picture, above, from the Weather Channel, and the following one from the local Oklahoma channel.
There's some variation in the temperatures, but then the thermometers in the streets don't show exactly the same temperatures, I've noticed as I've driven through town.
Wednesday evening at Emmanuel. Young people are scattered around the hall doing their homework. Those without homework are helping with the meal in the kitchen. For dessert I took the brownies I'd bought to support Tuesday's Bake Sale, and I made some shortbread.
