Ruminations about hermeneutics, theology, theory, politics, ecclesiastical life… and exercise.
Two miles, hot breakfast, and for the sake of a change I transcribed a couple of sections of Legends of the Jews, ‘The Daughters of Zelophehad’ and ‘The Appointment of Joshua.’ The rest of the afternoon was devoted to a visit with our pal Melanie.
Mile and a half, fruit breakfast, reading for my research with intermittent Olympic viewing (for inexplicable reasons).
Two miles, hot breakfast, reading for research… there is so very much to learn in this blessed world…
Mile and a half, fruit breakfast, reading, writing, and making a pamphlet version of Edmund Grindal’s letter to Queen Elizabeth in behalf of continuing the sermon-instruction conferences known as ‘prophesyings.’
Two miles, breakfast at Rick’s, research and writing, walk with the dogs, more reading, all day…
Mile and a half, fruit breakfast, referee report done, research and writing (delight!), a bit of gardening…

Two miles, hot breakfast, some reading and adding just a very few words to my essay (but add them I did)…
Mile and a half (slightly cooler, a welcome change), fruit breakfast, reading for refereeing… and that was most of my day. I lost energy (refereeing too often does that to me).

Two miles, hot breakfast, refereeing reading through the morning, research reading in the afternoon, and actually writing a [very] few words into both my current essay and even the first chapter of my monograph. Not many words, but words. More than one.
Mile and a half this morning, fruit breakfast, refereeing, reading from The Cowley Fathers, reading for research, reading supplementary to refereeing, good news from my responsibilities at work.
All this reading stirs up useful ideas for my monograph, if only I could get to it….
Two miles, breakfast at Rick’s, research reading, referee reading, requisite entertainment of Minke and Flora, more reading, a few more words.
