Pleasant Day…And Winter is Here

Well, all-in-all it was a pretty good day. I actually managed to get up by 5:30 and get going. So yeah I didn’t get much sleep last night, but it was worth it. I got most of my small website projects done. I wish I would have had the whole day to work on stuff. My department spent the afternoon going a bit deeper in the DISC profile. Wanting to discover how we can better work together. It was good to go deeper into what makes up each of us. We were reminded again that the profile is not something to use as an excuse for our actions. Each personality type has it’s strengths and weeknesses. It’s the weeknesses that we need to work on and we need to know how to best interact with other personality types. I can sure see how my personality causes social issues. This is something I obviously have to work on, I think God has been helping me see this and working on it with me.

I decided to make some more bread today. I started it during lunch and I came home to fresh baked bread. I decided to make some cinnamon bread, didn’t have raisins to add. It was good stuff.

We had youth praise team tonight. Two of our members didn’t make it. I decided to cancel next weeks practice, give them a break, and then the week after Thanksgiving we’ll have a final practice before we lead that Wednesday. I think the group is really coming along. I haven’t gotten a lot of feedback from them, I hope they are enjoying it.

I didn’t do a whole lot tonight other than work on bills. I’ve got everything covered. I need to do some deposits and get some things off in the mail tomorrow. I’m actually still waiting for two bills to come yet.

Joel Egge loaned me the book that is now on my Planned Reading list, you can see this on the left. He recommended this some time ago, I believe it was after he read a post of mine that talked about my relationship issues. I’m kind of honored to know that he reads my blog now and then, actually I’m pretty honored that anyone reads my blog. I have a lot of respect for Joel. He has a great deal of wisdom and has a caring heart.

Well, I think I’m going to keep this pretty short tonight. On to some reading, then to bed for me. Ok, one final note. I think I’ve got a short in the brain somewhere. So I always close my posts with “chow” which is so rediculous. The correct word to be using is “ciao”, a kind soul pointed this out to me. When I realized this it had me totally laughing at myself. Now I think it’s great, I’m still going to use “chow”, it’s a lot more funny that way. LOL

Here I go, CHOW! LOL 😀

    What’s The Latest?

    Well, so what ever happened to the daily wisdom that I would bring to this thing they call the internet or blog-o-sphere? Well, sometimes life just makes a lot of demands on our time that we just can’t do anything about. Today I managed to finally get the new Faith & Fellowship Bookstore website online. This has been a long awaited task. There are some features that still need to be put in place but things changed along the way that will cause those things to require a different approach. On the personal front, things between Vanessa and I got all straightened out Monday night. It was a rather mixed up mess that we got ourselves in but it was definitely a growing point in…

    Another Day With My Thoughts…

    Well, I think the unfortunate thing is that I’ve lost my amazing blog audience. I can really only blame myself of course. Let’s see, the very fact that I’ve barely had a weekly update, er, ok so it’s barely made it to be a bi-monthly update. Well, on to my continued thoughts. I think the crazy thing is I finally had to come to the reality that I need to let things go. It can be so easy for me to get worked up about something, and in the end it really isn’t very significant in the whole scope of things. What benefit is there to let myself get all worked up to the point where I can’t get to sleep and my mind just…
  • The Rat Race…

    Well, it’s been crazy lately. I’ve had so many things going on. So I haven’t gotten much for posts up in the last few days. I was up way too late trying to get me photo gallery going on Thursday, after my walk. The walk Thursday was very relaxing. I wish I didn’t have so much going on all the time. I really enjoy the time outdoors, I can’t wait until the camping trip this weekend. As a result of being up so late I had a hard time getting up Friday morning, this meant I didn’t get my devotions done before work. It’s been a real battle for me to change my sleep schedule. I’ve been such a night owl, but getting to bed…
  • I’m Bad With Relationships…

    I just can’t seem to understand why I’m so bad with keeping good relationships. Is it so hard to just pickup the phone? I can only figure that I’ve been so used to have so much time on my own that when I’m not with Vanessa I just feel like doing my own thing. At the same time and can’t wait for the next time to spend with Vanessa. I can’t wait for our trip to MN to see so many that I haven’t seen for so long. At times I feel like I’m constantly torn between the relationships that I’ve seem to have left behind and trying to start new relationships here. I’ve never been very good with the whole thing of keeping in…
