Happy Birthday, msbelle!
I think the people who have trouble reconciling God with tragedy are those who are really invested in both A) a God who is All Good and All Loving, and B) a God who is directly involved in human events. Because then suddenly you have to do mental backflips trying to turn tragedy into Good.
Hi Lee! I need to try to get some work done, but I hear Franny making cranky noises in the bedroom. Hrm.
I need to get some work done too, but I don't want to, so I am looking for Devil ducks.
So far, I have found these, [link] which I want.
eta: I don't like these [link] as much, but they come with their own theme songs.
I have a Devil duck! It has spots. His name is Louis.
I have to remove everything from my kitchen this week so that water damage that occurred over the holidays can be repaired & painted. I should probably try to clean up my drafting area (the breakfast nook) today to make that a little easier. First I'm gonna get some soup started in the crock pot.
Huh. it turns out that there are web sites devoted to selling rubber ducks: [link] and [link]
eta: Ugh, Aurelia. That sucks.
not really here.
Right. Because you're out celebrating your AMAZING FABULOUS BIRTHDAY.
Ooh, I want those ones from your first link.
