Get a Physical

I'M HEALTHY!

This was sorta fun. I actually had to take my son in to the doctor at 8:40 because of his fever and then ran to my doctor appointment at 10:00. It was cute seeing my son be in awe that his dad had to do the same things he just did. He had to leave the room for the "turn and cough" bit but got to see up close the needle being inserted in my vein and the blood being drawn. The nurse was very patient having to work with a three year old standing underneath her and looking between her arms at her work.

All in all, i'm healthy and beside my bunion and my weird face bump (either scar tissue or a cyst) i'm good. won't have to do that again for another 30 years!

Make a Lip Sync Video

oh dear...this is so embarrassing!

The story goes:
My teen center had a broken Wii guitar that was just taking up space. One of the teens, you'll see him in the video, really wanted it. I told him no. He asked again. I said no again. He then came up with a plan to get me to give him the guitar. He suggested we film a video of us lip singing to a song, i would get to be lead singer and then at the end of the song, we would get to destroy the guitar. Darn it! Such a great idea, i had to agree.

So, there we are making this video and once we are all done...we re watch it and we notice...I LOOK LIKE A CREEPER! I wasn't fully sure what did it but its the hey, those kids look cool, but whats up with the 40 year old! (okay...i'll say 35) who is TOO INTO THIS! Seriously, in my head i'm going for it...i'm totally a 15 year old boy at the time. its not right!

Enjoy...i'm embarrassed. Never again!

Never Watch Harry Potter Again!

Thanks Pat, now you ruined it!
I was so excited to watch the first part of the Harry Potter final! I was totally going to watch it and be definante against the Christian norm and enjoy the movie. (for the record, i feel there are some really great things in Harry Potter!)

But now i've competely missed the first installement and can go at least the year till i see it. Thanks Pat!

Buy Coffee for the next person in line

I'm still plugging away at this ridiculously long list! This is insane!

So, i did the starbucks drive through after picking up Brooklyn from the babysitters and ordered myself a banana chocolate chip cake slice (SOOO GOOD) and then told the lady that i'll buy whatever the person behind me is having. I'll be honest i was afraid that they would order something super expensive or the cashier would tell them and i would then order something expensive...either way...i was afraid (a common emotion in my life). They ended up getting
7 dollars worth and it all worked out.

the big build up for this is...we aren't doing great financially. My wife and I are busting our butts and it seems that there just isn't enough money to take care of everything. I sorta feel like a failure saying this cause it sucks not having enough money. But...i need to not be so caught up in the worry part and trust that God knows what we need and He will provide...like he always has! So, in faith, i bought that other family starbucks believing God will take care of my family and as generosity has been shown to us, i can show generosity to others.

Take that money troubles!
