the lawyer...

Well, I have to say it went better than I thought. She was very helpful and knowledgeable. She is not only a will lawyer, she also deals with adoption issues. So when we have children she can handle all the details. She also shares a common understanding of our family issues that Georgia does not. I was impressed too that she wanted to save us time and money by adding in all the details for our "hypothetical" children in our initial meeting. Of course, we had homework when it was over like who will take Roux after we die and how much money we exactly want to give to charity. While it is strange to be thinking about all this it feels good to have it done.

On another note, even our lawyer questioned why we were in Atlanta. She said I don't understand why you would move from SF to Atlanta, but it makes total sense to move from Atlanta to SF. Oh and then today I got an email from her today about contra dancing. Weird.

Hope all are well. Summer's almost over and I am looking forward to cooler weather. We finally got below a 100 degrees today. Soon it will be fall and time for camping! YAY!

Oh and P.S. I get to preach on Oct. 7th so if you are in Atlanta come and listen. It can't be too political I have been warned, but who knows what I will be called to preach. It is children's sabbath at our church and later that week is National Coming Out Day, so much to think about...Keep me in your prayers as that day I will also be leading an intergenerational stewardship event for all our kids (100+) after preaching 30 min before and then 6 hours later helping with the St. Francis celebration where we bless all the puppies, kitties, hamsters and other critters in our congregation. I am looking forward to that and then a lovely day off on Monday.


Little known fact of the day:

Jewel, Drew Carey and Joan Collins were born on my birthday.
