Sing to Jehovah







We are all very excited to get the new songbook and music from the jw.org website. So much so that we spent the weekend listening to the new music and trying to figure out what is what and where it is.






Tonight we had our first Hooteenanny (British translation, from American Jibberish: A get together to sing songs.) According to David. Anyway, a number of dear ones in our congregation came over to sing some of the new songs, it was a lot of fun. Two of the most beautiful songs, in my opinion, # 110, 111. They are not easy songs to sing, but we will get the hang of them. One of the hardest tasks was learning old words to new melodies, like From House to House, that was hard! By the way we didn't all cry when we sang #111, we were distracted with trying to sing it right, but after we master it we will.
David is recovering from his foot injury, so much so that he is hoping to play golf tomorrow. We'll see.
The mouse hunt is in full scale. We have tried to design a major mouse trap but so far we are back to the drawing board. One thing we have learned is that while mice are very fast they are also very agile, able to jump at least three feet into the air, don't ask why we know this.
Ashley is off to Nicaragua in October, tomorrow she gets all of her shots, she will be one sore puppy.
Later . . .

  1. #110 & 111 might be the most beautiful, but I see us all standing around in the smoking ruins singing #134.
