Being late: for me it's not really hurrying on the outside. It's more the apprehension I have on the inside from being late. I hate to drive fast, and almost never do. Last week I didn't leave Macon until late, and got 35 MPG on the way home because I drove so slow, arriving after 11 pm). Last week I woke up super late. No way I was going to make it to work by 8 am. Still I took a shower, didn't drive fast to work. Might've stopped for something to eat or drink or gas. Also had to stop by the post office to mail something. I didn't rush that morning.
Other things though, like church or meeting people, I do get apprehensive if I'm running late. At our new Sunday School classroom you enter from the back. For late people if they are quiet no one notices when they come in – except because the back rows fill up first, so a latecomer has to sit in front of anyone else.
Usually we park across Johnson Ferry from the church. It's quicker to drive to those parking spaces that looking for a space in the main lot. As usual I was ready and waiting on C to leave. Sunday it was raining so C wanted me to drop her off. That meant I would be even later. I still made it to class before it started, but my blood pressure was up from worrying about being late. Another good thing about arriving early is that I can sit and prepare my mind and heart for worship. Time to calm down from all the rushing around.
Ceil's brother likes to get to games super early, like me.
Winnie has a bad habit of putting her paws up on the countertop, sniffing and looking for something to eat. Last night Winnie had eaten a small bag of mixed nuts, which wasn't good. C had to get her to throw up. I had to stop by Kroger on the way home for hydrogen peroxide. Today she climbed completely up on the kitchen table, rooting around for something.
Our first small group meeting went well last night. More of an introductory meeting. We already know each other well. We'll be studying the book of Acts.
Still super busy at work. I have 5 or 6 projects to do, plus send stuff to my accountant, and memories of my mother for the pastor delivering the eulogy. Yesterday I couldn't find the obit on line. People aren't going to have time to plan to come to the funeral if they don't have the information.

Denison: recent reports from the Guardian and the Wall Street Journal warn that from amplifying body issues, eating disorders, and depression among teenage girls to driving people into extremist groups on their website, Facebook is increasingly hurting their users. There are steps Facebook could take to help mitigate some of those issues. Cries for them to do that have fallen on deaf ears. Countless books, articles, and studies have pointed out the way that their approach places a higher priority on generating traffic than on responsibly moderating their services.
Three ways to use social media wisely: (1) admit that you are not immune from being deceived. (2) surround yourself with people who care more about knowing the truth than about being right. When was the last time you remember being wrong about something? Are you sure? Perhaps there are not enough influences in your life to help you see that you are wrong. Are you open to being challenged? Or do you want to just surround yourself with people who will agree with whatever you say? (3) Hold everything but your relationship to God loosely enough so that if He shows you something needs to change, you are willing to do. Set high standards for the people and groups you follow in social media.
