I lied

Well the plan was to take some time out of this day to actually sit down and write a decent blog. That hasn’t happened, and actually it won’t happen today. I’m in a bad mood. Steph was due to fly in tonight at like 7:15, here it is almost 9:40 and she still isn’t home. Not having my wife here along with feeling like life is throwing everything at me really doesn’t make for a happy camper. As a matter of fact i may just give up on this and be a camper. FOR GOOD. ok only kidding. Well i really need to go pick steph up. I’ll continue this tomorrow. Thanks all.

To blog or not to blog

So for the last couple months that has really been a question of mine. Do I blog? Or do I give up on it? As you can see or notice it has been a long long time since I have blogged, and frankly I think I say that every time I write a new entry, but a lot has changed in this little life I enjoy. All of which I do not plan to share tonight, but rather tomorrow when I will attempt to actually put some time into writing. But for today and this weekend, I am actually glad it is over. My wife will be joining me tomorrow night. Back from her fresh trip to the northern country. Time for me the last couple days just seemed to stop, or drag on, im not sure which one of those really suits what I felt. I can say that I will be glad to have her home, and by my side. Let me wrap up by saying that tonight was an enjoyable SuperBowl to watch. Although I would have rather watched it with purple running around on the field, it was a good match up. Plus I got to watch it with Jim, and never heard one remark about Brett. Those two things, being with Jim, and not hearing slams about Brett equal a good end to the weekend. Well for now it is good night, but tune back in tomorrow for yet another update in the life I live…

Happy Thanksgiving

I thought I would start this thanksgiving off with a good blog posting. Mainly because later today after all the food that I consume, I will be in no physical shape to be blogging. I sit here this morning listening to worship music (unlike my wife who listens to xmas music ALL the time) and thinking how blessed can a man get. Well the guy in my shoes, which would be me is very blessed. I think most people take this time to self reflect and ponder on what is to be thankful for. I would like to share a couple things that I am thankful for on this day. The first and foremost, I am thankful for a God that loves endlessly and that He calls me son. I am thankful for the blood of Jesus Christ. I could go on and on. I am thankful for the family and friends that are in my life. I love each and everyone of you. I am thankful to be working again, although I will complain and whine, I am thankful. Maybe that is something to work on is whining. I am thankful to be challenged and pushed in life. I am blessed, truly.

So moving on to more of an update. Work is well, we don’t know what is to come after this job, which is to be done December 11th. I hope to continue working, but would rather Be is St Louis working. Oh whining again. The Beard is good and thick. Steph and I gave it a trim last weekend to relieve it of some ugliness. Finally we will be moving on the 5th! Finally!

I pray that you all can have a safe and enjoyable day. Eat lots and enjoy family. Thanks

The Great Trek North

As many of you know, yesterday I made the trip from St Louis to Minneapolis. For the time being I am calling this trip the great trek north, yes that is where the title came from. Well there isn’t really much to share about the trip. I made it in 8 hours and about 30 minutes. Stopped twice to fuel up and a third time to empty my bladder full of coffee. The reason for coming to the northern land, is that tomorrow I shall be starting a new job. Well not a new job, but with a new company. The details are classified. So much so, that I don’t know any of them. But what I am looking forward to is working again. Well it is time to recharge myself. Good Night

Day 2

I liked blogging so much yesterday that I thought I would blog again today. Well today was Thursday, so you know what that means… basketball at the Y and then The Office at the Barnard’s.

This Thursday it was one without the other. Basketball went well. It was the playoffs at the Y tonight. We had one of the better records through the regular season so that earned us a trip to the playoffs. Well we lost, but only by 8 I think. We lost to the eventual champs, who went on to win the “ship” by 12 I think. Basketball has been a lot of fun for me, and I think for our team as well. We are starting to get the hang of it, so here is your warning. Look out for us, we are coming.

It was sad not to hang out at the Barnard’s afterwords. But Alisha was not feeling well, I ask that you all can continue to keep her in your prayers. I think all of you reading this usually pray for her anyways. I don’t have many readers. Thanks Jim.

So that was my day. I must finish this great Bud Light Wheat, and hit the hay. I’m still looking for ideas to jazz up the blog here. Thanks all.

Wow

All I can say is wow. It has been way to long since I have blogged. For some reason I have a hard time with sharing my life through this blog. But here I am attempting to make it right.

Much has happened since I last blogged, and I won’t torture you with a long drawn out update. Cause if your reading this than you actually know whats been happening in my life, cause we talk. Right? Well maybe not.

So we will start with a look to the future. I’ll be back to work soon! Praise God! I start work back in Minnesota on the 16th with a company that I have worked for in the past. It is Donovan Construction, check out the link. Im not sure what type of work I will be doing or how long I will be gone. But it is work, and unfortunately money makes the world turn. I think the two most exciting things associated with this opportunity is that I will be able to stay with my dad, and hopefully work with a good friend of mine. I know some of you have not meet my dad, and hopefully when we move in the next couple weeks you will have the chance to meet him.

That brings me to the move. Steph and I have decided to move closer to the city. We are very excited for the move, but have some time to wait as well as we don’t know exactly when we can move into the apartment. I will keep you updated.

I would like to share a personal thought with all of you. When I return to work next week im pretty sure that it will have been 6.5 months since I last had a full-time job. I don’t intend to tell a “poor jere” story, actually its the opposite. Having a lot of time on my hands has given me the opportunity  to do a lot of self-reflection, and time to spend reading the bible. Four years ago I committed my life to Christ, but never took the time to read the word. In the time off I have been able to read the bible front to back. I don’t want a pat on the back, I just want to share with you how blessed I feel that I am. Blessed to have you reading this in my life, blessed to have time off to grow in my faith, blessed to be a son of God. Blessed.

So here’s the final thought. I stated before how it is hard for me to share on this blog. I would like to make this blog something more. I know it will not be as good as Jim’s, but I would like to attempt to. So here’s the deal, I would like ideas on how to make this something you would read daily or to be more real, weekly. Please let me know.

Hump Day

so other than today being Wednesday, which to some is called hump day i really have nothing else to share on that topic.

what i do have to share is something i did stupidly yesterday. so i have this credit card from us bank that i have had since i was 18. well. it was getting a little worn out, from what i dont know cause i dont use it. i tried to use it the other day and the gas station pump couldnt read it. so i email us bank and had them send me out a new one. so i received it in the mail. called the number and activated it. shut the phone and the plan was to shred the old one and the paper the card came with. well not thinking i grabbed the new card, and you guessed it. shredded my brand new credit card. retarded. which is totally something that i would do.

on a better note, sounds like things are getting accomplished with alisha and jim at the hospital. well i mean test have been done and we will wait for the results. luckily i get to go relieve jim tomorrow. im not really sure what that means. but i hope my bright and shinny face can bring some laughs to him.

thats it for the night. and yes i have blogged two days in a row, and world record.
