You ever just wake up and think… whoa… how am I going to do this day? I just did. The sheer amount of what I need to do TODAY seems quite insurmountable… but I am about to begin an attempt to do so. Perhaps you are wiser than I and do not schedule several large…

The Phoenix Cafe has officially breathed it’s last. I can not believe the frequency with which these establishments expire. This one lasted less than a year. And the same happened with the previous owner (in the same location.) I am bummed cause it was a cool place to play here in our town (right around…

Well today we are trying to actually clean our house for the first time I think. 🙂 For some reason, (mostly cause we are always super busy…) we clean enough to get by, but then we end up with a HUGE job like is facing us today! Should be interesting! 🙂 I think I am…

I forgot to mention… last Tuesday morning (our first morning back after a busy summer of traveling…) I was going to take a shower and just noticed how nasty our bathroom was – including the bath tub from our REALLY SLOW DRAIN (that I have mentioned here several times). So, I decided to clean it….

So, I mentioned before that we were watching the Democratic National Convention last week, and that my parents are Super Republicans… those things are both true. And in general, I’d say the majority of the folks we hang out with would tend toward the GOP as the GOP is the more conservative of the parties……

We were noticing the other day… there are many people who are not content in life. Most everything that comes from their mouth is negative, or just sad. Many of the politicians are this way, and those who comment on things political (talk show hosts and whatnot) Even many folks we know. Even many Christians…

Walking is something that we Americans have gotten out of the habit of doing, and that’s too bad. I just got to walk the town of Palmyra today, drumming up support, handing out flyers, putting up posters, and just in general connecting with the folks in my town. It was probably about 3 miles in…

I was watching the Democratic National Convention last night, cause it was on, and cause I really wanted to hear what they are thinking. Cause my parents are Super-Republicans, the Grandest of the Grand-Old-Party… and I hear all the stuff from one side, and mostly agree… but, just wanted to make an educated decision… So,…

So I was gardening again today… to tell the truth, it’s slightly addicting. It’s kinda predictable, and mindless, and just different from what I do… so I slip out to check out the garden and end up being out there doing various garden for a half hour or more! Well today I noticed that weeds…

We sang a song this past week at camp (read the footnote below…) that I have sung before, many times… but I was reminded of the depth of coolness of one of the lines. We sang, “With every breath I’m praising You.” Actually, many times I have sung that and felt a twinge of guilt…
