glorycloud's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- he intends to go to the dogs It is in the death flow 3:50 PM Tuesday afternoon. The sun came out this afternoon which was a blessing. I did find the courage to leave the house this morning to visit thrift stores and to get some office supplies. I found these used books- 'American Tabloid' a novel by James Ellroy (I already had this novel but my copy was a paperback, this edition I found today was a nice hardback with a slipcover) 'The Hand: How Its Use Shapes The Brain, Language, And Human Culture' non-fiction by Frank R. Wilson 'India Calling: An Intimate Portrait Of A Nation's Remaking' non-fiction by Anand Giridaradas 'Three Delays' a novel by Charlie Smith 'Schmidt Steps Back' a novel by Louis Begley At Staples Office Supply store I bought folders, pens, paper, ink for our printer and a 2019 calendar for my 2019 diary. I always have to keep track of my existence. We will soon be in the year 2019, so time to get ready. I have been reading this afternoon the novel 'Hovac' by Tom Kristensen Translated from the Danish by Carl Malmberg. I find reading this novel painful because as I read I am reading the story of a man who is destroying his comfortable middle-class life by becoming an alcoholic. It is painful to see all around you humanity destroying themselves by worshiping false gods. I pray constantly to the Lord to keep me from destroying myself by living a life of unbelief. It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of a Living Holy God! Well I suppose I will close to wait for nightfall. One can not escape what is written in the book of God's decrees. 4:21 p.m. - 2018-09-11 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
