A good day off.

It was a great day yesterday. The kids ended up spending most of the day at my moms house, so Errin and I had a great day hanging out and taking a drive and watching the KU basketball game (boo), I no longer care about basketball for the year.

I am at an interesting conference today, AONT Conference. It is interesting to think about how technology can be at work in the church to advance the work of the church. My specific thoughts are about how Nazarene Publishing House might be able to assist and resource the church.

Just my luck...

Last night I borrowed a tow dolly (you know one of those things you put the front wheels of a car on to tow it with the cars back wheels still on the ground), and all was well until I put my van up on it. One of it's tires went flat, then it rained a little, teaching me a valuable lesson. "Stay home and go to bed!", no wait that's not it, the lesson is "Ride your motorcycle", yeah that's it. Anyway I finally got the van home and it was way to late and way to dark to start working on it, so that is what I have to look forward to tonight. Apparently contrary to what "Annie" would say, the sun will also set tomorrow, here's for looking forward to another day. Hope your is better than mine.

Wow, that was depressing, what a bad attitude I have today.
On the bright side I am staying home with my wife and kids (who are on spring break this week) tomorrow that should be a good time.

I wish I could teleport myself...

Of course the part I need for my van is one that has to be ordered and it takes 3 days, and they can't even order it until I take it off of the van and take it in for them to match. I am going to tow it home today. :(

To blog or not to blog that is the question!?

I am going to start trying to post here, even though I have given Joe and Adam a hard time about blogging. The way I see it is, "why would anyone want to waste their time reading anything I have to say", I was obviously not born to be an author. So why start now you might ask? (did you) I'll answer anyway. I am starting now because my life seems to be flying at warp speed and picking up more speed all the time, I hardly ever slow down long enough to consider the things I choose to fill up my life with. Now don't get me wrong I am busy with good things, but why am I so busy. The little voice in my head is screaming "so why add this to the list" right now. Why, because I thin, no I hope that this will encourage me to slow down long enough to really think about things that are going on in my life instead of just doing what I am supposed to do and reacting to what I must.

Speaking of reacting to what I must. When I tried to leave work last night my van wouldn't start, so I tried to work on it, and I ended up breaking something that wasn't the problem, it turns out the problem is the fuel pump. Who knew a fuel pump for such an old vehicle would be so expensive. Bummer.

So I plan to write again soon. Most likely when next have to react to something that I wish I had more time to think about.
