Arrived in Damariscotta a little before ten pm. Partly unpacked the car. Izzie has been running around the house like a crazy dog. I think she's glad to be home. More tomorrow.
Whiteycat, Izzie is still snoozing on the couch. I can't get her to go outside to pee. I know it's cold, but you can only postpone that for so long. She'll blog later (I think)
"Laws alone can not secure freedom of expression; in order that every man present his views without penalty there must be spirit of tolerance in the entire population."
When I was ordained in 2000, my son joked "my mother is a father." So the name. I worked as a scientist for over 30 years, first in Boston, then LA, San Francisco area, Denver, D.C, Vienna and back to San Fran. Good training for an interim who has served in Eastern Michigan, Wyoming, California and now Maine.
Isabelle, the little white dog, better known as Izzie has her own blog now.
Rob Voyle has been instrumental in my work as an interim. I highly recommend Appreciative Inquiry as a way of looking at life in a parish, or for life in general.

Science and Religion
"Yet its [science] enthralling account is not sufficient by itself to quench our thirst for understanding, for science describes only one dimension of the many-layered reality within which we live, restricting itself to the impersonal and general, and bracketing out the personal and unique." In the preface to "Exploring Reality: The Intertwining of Science and Religion" by John Polkinghorne
Icon of Our Lady of Vladimir
wrote this icon under the direction of Alekandr Kharon. It sits in the Lady Chapel of All Saints, San Francisco
New things happen in regimes that we have learned to identify as being 'at the edge of chaos.' Too far on the orderly side of that frontier and things are too rigid for there to be more than a shuffling rearrangement of already existing entities. Too far on the disorderly side and things are too haphazard for any novelties to persist.

Glad we´re safe, much to do, much to do.

Glad you are both home safe and sound.
Thanks for letting us know! Hope you and Izzy can have a restful weekend!
Len, glad you returned safely as well.
Brian and Rick. Izzie and I are doing nothing but laundry today even though it is Sunday.
I'm enjoying a pot of coffee and watching Meet the Press. Izzie is snoozing on the couch and dreaming.
Welcome back Mother Amelia!
Welcome home to you and Izzie. Anxiously awaiting Izzie's next post.
Thank you Wade. It's good to be back.
