more

Well, it's about time I posted an update
1) grades came back I received 3 A's, but a B in preaching!
2) we have lost our new youth volunteers, but are pressing ahead with the people we have already in place
3) I wrote about my arm, however, the pain is not from my arm it's from my neck! The physical therapy is doing what it is supposed to - moving the pain from my arm back to the source. Right now it is in my shoulder blade and the top of my shoulder. It's actually much more bothersome than the arm pain, although I still get numbness and tingling down my arm if I sit for too long.
4) We have set a start date for the Discovery Kids program - September 24. That won't interfere with the church council meeting on the 17th and we will have finished one unit before we have to miss a week for the Swiss Steak dinner.
5) I started a sermon series based on Adam Hamilton's book "Christianity and World Religions". The presentation of the series seemed to go over well. Hopefully, the presentation of the four religions will go as well.
6) Maybe some day I will be as deep as my fellow bloggers (go Randy! love the new phase in your life)

dazed and confused?

Now that I don't have school to write about, I'm at a loss for words. I read my favorite writers daily -- look at mine -- sigh and log out!

There are some very good political writers out there, some deep religious scholars, I feel so out of my element in the blogosphere!

I'm back

I am back from school, just waiting for my final grades.

Decided the first order of business was to move the fish pond (a large planter) out of the shade and into the sun, only to pull the muscles in my lower back. I am still feeling the pain. It's mostly settled on the right side (I think it was aggravated by three days in Aurora's Pontiac).

Went to Darien Lake with Aurora, niece Lindsay, and Jack on August 1st. We had a good time. They did a good job with the sunscreen on my back, I however failed to do a good job on my shoulders and neck!!!!

Thursday we went to the Y so Jack could see his friends after five weeks before he actually returns to day camp. It was funny, there were three families of Y kids there and each one of them got yelled at for not having a t-shirt on! They have to wear them when they are at camp and the swim helpers didn't recognize that they weren't at camp that day.

I'll try to think of things to post. My regular life is rather boring what with work, family, and my church. I'll try to think deep thoughts and post them. Can't even come close to my favorite bloggers though!!
