OR IS IT DAY 4?

This world is hard to grasp. I was talking with Julie just as she was about to walk into church Wednesday night group. Then Andrew called from Sydney and I thought it was Friday. I have traveled through so many time zones in the past few days that I get turned around. So glad God knows where everything goes otherwise we would get really messed up.

Saw mum twice today at the hospital. She is doing better and looks like she is going to recover. Still very frail but her body just keeps on going with a bit of help from the oxygen machine and antibiotics. She is in a special respiratory ward where everyone was some lung problems. People in there are a mess and almost all have pneumonia or worse. I really am averse to hospitals. Thank God that there are people who feel called to serve in them. I know I am not.

Going to Sydney for a while to see my sons. Hope I don't get a call from the hospital because it will only be bad news. I don't think I will.

My son Ben just had to see the Dark Knight at 9:30 last night. I did what most 51 year old dads do and slept through it. Ben said it was awesome and that I should see it with Ali.

Gas is $1.65 a litre here. That's about $6.200 a gallon. Who would have thought that $3.65 gallon gas would look so good?
