  • Back to life

    Even though I’ve been out of school for some time now, the summer still tends to free me up from a lot of commitments that I have throughout the rest of the year. Bible Study Fellowship (BSF) doesn’t meet all summer, I don’t have any classes and things just don’t seem to be as busy.…

  • Trying something different

    Tonight for dinner we tried something a little different… shishkabobs! We’ve never made them before and Kristen thought it would be fun so she had the meat and vegetables marinating in the refrigerator all day and this evening we prepared them and put them on the grill. It took a little longer than we thought…

  • Classes begin again

    It’s time to get back at it. My class starts tonight and I’m looking forward to it somewhat. The class is a Business and Commercial Law class and I think that it will be somewhat interesting. Hopefully it won’t be a bunch of stuff that I’ll never need to know. I’m going today to get…

  • A great weekend!

    We had a very good weekend! We got a chance to go out and do some shopping and get a few things that we wanted and needed. Elder Beerman had their Moonlight Madness sale going on so we got a few things for 50% off. Saturday night was the Richmond Bicentennial Parade so I took…

  • You can leave, but you can never go back…

    I’ve rambled on and on before in my journal about how I miss being in marching band and playing, and even though I know you’re probably sick of hearing about how much I wish I was back in those days again, this is my journal, so it’s only right that I write about the things…

  • A positive shopping experience

    As I mentioned in my last post, our house was recenly struck by lightening killing our phone, TV and a DVD recorder. The phone we replaced early the same day and we went that evening to get a new TV. It was a great experience. I was very surprised by what you can get for…

  • And the lightning strikes…

    I was awakened this morning by a huge boom outside of our bedroom window. Kristen had already left for Summer School and I was there alone, sleeping in a quiet solitude that happens only rarely then BOOM!!! The lightning had struck very close to our house right between our house and the neighbors house. I…

  • Headed out

    With Kristen and I leaving tomorrow morning for Florida I’m finding myself getting more and more excited. It’s not so much being in Florida that’s exciting as much as it is just the excitement of a long road trip though I have to admit that I’m really looking forward to spending some time on the…

  • A unique opportunity

    I received a call this weekend from a friend from high school that I don’t get to talk to very often. He’s in school to become a band director and he’s working with Centerville High School’s drum line this summer to get them ready for their competitions. He’s a little short-handed and wanted to know…

  • 4th of July Weekend

    If there’s one thing I love more than the weekend it’s a 3-day weekend. It’s nice to really be able to get some rest in and spend time with family and friends in the process. This weekend, as if it were avoidable, was 4th of July weekend and for the U.S. that means the celebration…
