Too Long . . .

You know it has been a long time since I blogged!
I opened up my account and couldn’t remember my password. 
Then I had to take a moment because wordpress changed it’s dashboard and it caught me off guard.
Needless to say I have nothing to say. And if you have nothing to say then why say anything?
So [...]

* Helping A Family In Need

It’s been too long since I blogged. Sorry and I’m back!!!
Yesterday in church we talked about helping PERC (Piedmont Emergency Relief Center ) with bags of canned goods or a check. Hopefully you’ll do one or maybe both.

*Sorry, I know it’s been a while . . .

I’ve had nothing to say. Period.
That’s why I haven’t blogged much.
After Thanksgiving I’m sure I’ll be revived. Until then I leave you with my current home. Go to Google Street View. (click street view and type in 16 Lebby Street Pelzer, SC)
Be careful you may be jealous that I live across from the most expensive grocery store [...]

* What do you do in a meeting?

Yesterday I had a district meeting and I realized I can focus better if I am doing more than one thing at a time. Otherwise, I totally zone out.
Here is me in a meeting totally engaged in the conversation, cleaning out my email, charting a diagram of church activity/follow-up which is the group activity at the [...]

* Yesterday

Yesterday was one of the highest attended services outside of a holiday/special event.
Yesterday our tithe was very strong (probably had something to do with last week).
Yesterday the “cardboard testimonies” were overwhelming as they flooded the stage.
Yesterday I spent [...]

* They Say We Look Alike

Two minutes after birth the nurse said “He looks just like his daddy!”

I slept 6 hours last night and am pumped. First day in a month I don’t feel like a zombie. I’m hoping we figured out a schedule that [...]
