Settlers of Catan

Let The Games Begin…

Settlers of CatanWell, I have to say it was nice to be getting back into the swing of playing Settlers of Catan. There was only four of us tonight, verses the regular 5, but it was a good close game all around. Right off the bat I noticed I made a rather major error in the placement of my pieces that kind of did me in for winning.

Work today was pretty good. It never seems like I get everything I want to get done. I did mostly complete one project, at least the biggest part of it. Hopefully next week I’ll be able to wrap that up.

Even though the past two nights, and most likely even tonight, I’ve been staying up way too late, I have been getting my morning devotions in and boy has it made such a huge difference in how my day goes. Now I need to clarify how that might be sounding. I could easily be thought that I’m trying to use God to my benifit. That IS NOT what I’m saying in any way. When we take the time to start our day by placing God first it changes our attitude and perspective for the day. God blesses us when we choose to spend our time with Him, even though we truely don’t deserve it. It so amazing to see how God works in our lives when you put Him first. On the flip side of things, I haven’t been getting much of any reading done at nights before I head to bed. This hasn’t meant that I haven’t been putting God first. I’ve been either sharing, through my blog, about what God has been doing & teaching me, or working on this new Podcast project.

On this subject of the new Podcast, I can’t begin to express how excited I am to give this a whirl. I really want to get all the technical details in place, and all the topic/discussion plans made, so that I can begin on this little adventure. I don’t know where God is going to take me with this but it’s something new, and I’m excited about it. One side benifit in this too is that it’s finally some project that I’m kind of doing for myself. I’m always working on projects for others, and this Podcast will utlimately be for the benifit of other too, but this is something God has given me the opportunity to do, just Him and I working on the production of this one.

I checked with FedEx earlier and my new equipment should be arriving tomorrow. I’m kind of itching to try that stuff out. I’ll have to get a couple of my other projects done this weekend so I probably won’t get to do a lot with the equipment. I have sort of wondered if I should trying doing a recording on Sunday during our Life Shapes meeting. I think I want to hold off maybe a week before doing that. I am also responsible for doing the service recording at church already to I may end up being late to it anyways. As I just looked at the calendar I may have to wait a bit before I get a chance to actually do some recording of those sessions. One thing that I need to plan out it what to do if I’m out of town or just can’t make one of those sessions. I’ve already considered the option of recording more that just those sessions. The other issue is how often I’m planning to produce a Podcast episode.

Anyways, there I went rambling on about that whol thing. Well, as usual my post got rather lengthy. I’m calling it a night. Valette!

    Busy Night…Small World

    Well, today (er, I guess looking at the time I have to say tomorrow), it was a pretty slow day at work. Had a fun time talking about bread with a co-worker, she has like 3 bread machines, seems like her family would have bread coming our of their ears. From the conversations in the break room today you could definitely tell it was a Friday. After work I stopped at the seminary to meet with Phil to talk about a projector installation project. This will probably be a side job, which means some extra cash. It shouldn’t take too much to get a list of the equipment needed and do the install. I decided I wanted to get over to the play at “A…
  • Feeling 99% Today!

    Thanks for all the prayers guys! I’m feeling about 99% back to normal today. Got up at my normal 5:30 am, got some snow moved and got to work early. Now I’m patiently awaiting my PowerBook to arrive, hopefully the weather doesn’t have a negative effect. Well, have a great day all! P.S. Just did a quick check, it arrived in Minneapolis at 6:04 am. It’s close.

    Have I Forgotten?

    I know that morning will come too soon, I’ve got to be to work by 5am, but once again I find myself searching. I love how God is always tugging at me and wanting to stretch, and most of all asking me to continue on the path towards Him. Something that has been pulling at me for the past month is my concern that I’ve began living my life for myself. I struggle with Paul’s warning against getting married, and I can see already how my life is about to change. I will no longer have the freedom I once did to serve God and think of nothing else. I’m getting married in a little over 2 weeks and I will have someone in my…
  • Blog Design Changes…

    So I have done some design changes on my blog. I’ve customized it more away from the canned templated I was using. I’m not using an original panoramic photo for my header. I’ve also got the new photo gallery integrated a bit better. I’ve also added the ability to use avatars, that would be little pictures to represent yourself. I’ve even signed up for and allow the use of gravatars. Well, of course, busy-busy it has been. Not much of my life has been posted as of late. Maybe not today but hopefully tomorrow I’ll get a good long post in. On the the devos…
