- This is my first attempt at doing any real typing on the iPad. It feels a little weird but I’m getting used to it. Of course this is only my third sentence so it’s probably too soon to tell.
- My first week of blogging has been pretty cool (it only took six days to get my wife to break down and subscribe). I’m pretty excited to get started especially since it’s been a REALLY LONG TIME since I’ve had a real hobby. I think my last one was collecting all of the figures from “Rescue Rangers” in my Frosted Flakes cereal during second grade. I’m still missing Gadget.
- Spent a couple of hours today training 75+ volunteers to lead 350+ kids in small groups this fall. Our staff did an amazing job today. I am so proud of them!
- I love my job! I can’t remember the last time I’ve been happier to go to work. I was reminded this week of how good I have it. If you hate what you do change your attitude or change your job. Life is too short to hate what you do.
- Children behave the way that the adults in their lives model and enable. Be the kind of person that you want your kids to become.
- Had a blast speaking at our church’s Father/Son camping trip yesterday. The funniest thing there was what happened to Sarah. Here it is in her own Facebook status words: “So this weekend I accompanied Jeff to a father son camp out since he was speaking. I was sitting with some dads, when a kid rode by and yelled, ‘You’re a girl! You can’t be here!’ A friend’s son, yells, ‘Hey she’s a friend of ours…hit the road jack!’ We were all rolling!!! BTW, we left when Jeff was finished speaking; no way was I going to say in all guy territory for long!” Thanks for standing up for my wife Robbie!
- I love Community! If you are not watching this show you are seriously missing out. Kinda makes me wish that I had to go back to school because my degree was fake to wind up in a cool group like that (but not really). Maybe I’ll make frequent TV and movie references my thing, like Abed.
- What do you think of my blog’s tagline: “My attempt to answer the question, ‘What do you do the other six days of the week?’”?
- I am so pumped that we are moving forward in the adoption process. All our paperwork should be done and mailed out by Labor Day.
- I think this mark on our kitchen window is from God. I’m not sure what He’s trying to tell us, but I hope the bird He sent is going to be OK. I named him Bob.
- Went to a wedding yesterday that was catered by In N Out. Brilliant idea!
- I really hope to win a free trip to go to Donald Miller’s conference next month. Here’s my entry.
- In case you were wondering I am blogging on my iPad because our PC is acting up again. As soon as I get $1000 (or a second job) we’re getting a Mac and we’re not going back!
