I’ve held off from sharing too much about the World Cup, I know a lot of people don’t care, so I don’t want to bore anyone. But WOW. I don’t know if I have enough words to describe the feeling that I went through. If you have followed the Cup or US at all, you’ve […]
Stewardship
I was hit with an amazing and scary thought the other day. It was actually sparked by my pastor during his sermon, though it wasn’t really the point of his sermon (isn’t it funny how this is the way it usually works…). His comment and then my proceeding thoughts are definitely from a Christian point […]
I bought an iPad
I admit that I am surprised to be posting this… When Apple made the official announcement about what the iPad was, I thought “what’s the point? It’s just a big iPhone.” And to a certain extent that is true…but I jump ahead of myself. So, I put it out of my mind and went about […]
That Old Story
You know the old story don’t you. The one about the cobbler’s son? The story that goes, “Everyone had shoes but the cobbler’s son.” Yeah, that’s pretty much the story of our life when it comes to any sort of trip, special event, or vacation. Kia does a pretty good job or remembering the camera […]
Happy Thanksgiving!
Just want to write a quick note to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! After making some pumpkin pie and watching the parades, and the first few minutes of a horrible football game (aren’t all Thanksgiving games horrible…why is that?), I will going to my mom’s and hanging with her side of the family with Kia […]
Ever feel like this?
A friend of mine sent this time me the other day (check out his site…deep thinker and great guy). I know I do…have a great day (and double check your calendars).
14 years
I woke up this morning to the alarm at 6:45. I had been debating on whether to get up at this point all night. I started doing a work-out program (P90X) with Kia and her family (mom, brother and his wife) this week. It’s been kicking my butt. Kia is a little more committed than […]
Fantasy Football
This may be it, it may be time to hang up the Fantasy Football cleats. I’ve been playing fantasy sports for the past 10 year or so (starting out with NBA Basketball – truthfully still my favorite. Long enough ago that it was done before the internet and involved getting spreadsheets in the mail on […]
What I’m thankful for.
I know that I’m a little late, but over the course of the weekend and even the whole week, I have been thinking about what I am thankful for. Some of it has been forced thinking as you’ll see, and some of it is just a re-realization. So what am I thankful for…. […]
Boys and their toys…
Yes, even I have this weakness. So, last weekend I was on a short trip to pick up this awesome piece of machinery. I made my first auto purchase on ebay, and it’s pretty cool. It drives just fine. I drove it 3 hours home from just East of Joplin, Missouri. The pick-up in and […]
