I'm only happy when the gold turns to rust. It's the kind of thing that makes my day.

Thunderstorm jazz is freaking awesome. I need an album of that. I’d sleep like a baby.

Reblogging not for the first nor the last time. There’s just something right about this conjunction of laid-back music and lively weather...

I find this topic relentlessly fascinating for some reason. 

I grew up in a Sunday Best family. Both my parents were in choir which had a no-denim mandate and my dad was a deacon. Our pastors always wore full suits and most of the congregation dressed up.

As an adult I’ve become more Sunday Best Lite. I have no problem wearing jeans to church now. I do still avoid leggings, sneakers or flip-flops, and shirts with logos on them. Basically anything that draws extra attention to its own name and not Jesus’s Name. I also have to keep up with my kids now which means I have to make some concessions for practicality.

I think church has become more casual across the board, at least in the Protestant/Baptist-ish circles I tend to travel. Some of it might be regional too. Nobody would have dreamed of wearing shorts at the church I went to as a kid, but I don’t judge anyone for wearing shorts in July around here 😂

Today my oldest and I are both sick so I’m watching church at home in leggings 🤣🤣 there are exceptions to every rule!

Include your denomination and region if you want.

The best resolution to a missing persons case ever was that developmentally disabled person who walked off in 1986 saying he "wanted to be a cowboy in Texas", starting a twenty-one year search for him on the assumption he died somewhere in the desert or was murdered, only for everyone to discover that he had spent those decades working as a cowboy on a ranch in Texas. Missing persons investigators rarely consider that maybe they achieved their dreams
