| Ok, time for something new to chew on. Hopefully it's not just more "cud" to chew on....you know...something you've already chewed on before. But, we'll see.
Well, the "future-planning" continues in my world for now. I am still planning on moving into a house next Spring......gosh, that's only 9 or 10 months away. Geez. I'm hoping things will go smoothly and I can find a nice, cool little pad. I'm going for small, inexpensive, fixer-upper, etc... If you're young, or young and married, I'm sure you can identify with me. I am ready though. I'm ready to be the head of a household. I'm ready to get out there and do some hard work to make a house look great. I'm ready to take ownership of a house, or even something greater....a home. I'm ready to move on in my life. I'm done playing, done thinking about myself, done with my toys, done thinking in the moment, and done following.......It's time to lead. And it's not like I'm saying I won't have any fun, or I won't save up for something fun, or I'm becoming a dry adult. Don't get me wrong. There just comes a time when you feel that drive to succeed and move on.....I have reached that point in my life where I'm ready to go. Do you feel me?
Hey, um, I gained 8 pounds. No really, I did. Yeah, that only brings the grand total up to 168, but, that's beside the point. I haven't gained any weight in about 2 years. I've been lifting weights, taking creatine, (all natural, no side affects, nobody flame me) and getting back into shape. Yeah buddy. It's actually been really good. I'm strengthening my core and getting myself just a wee-bit bulked up so that I don't get so skinny this summer when I do all of my running and biking. I lifted today over lunch break and I am going to run when I get home tonight. It doesn't take much for me to get back in the swing of things. It better not, since I'm racing in a triathlon in just over 1 month! I need to get my butt in gear so that I can cruise. We'll see.....
Gosh, I can't wait to get out and get some sun. I have not been able to get out and just lay there yet. The weather is soooooo nice whenever I'm sitting inside all day at work, and then on the weekend it rains. That's just plain stupid. This weekend I'm going to the pool for sure. I NEEED some sun. It's a must-have...and I'm going to get it if it kills me.
Have I bored you yet?? Good, then I'll keep going. So I went to First Baptist of Fenton for church on Sunday to hear the word preached by our good brother Nudge. I have to say that he preached a very powerful sermon. It was fantastic. I wanted to say, "good job man!" but I know it wasn't his effort that made it so. It was definitely God working through him. Even so, he DID do a good job. A great job, to be exact. He preached on 1 Corinthians 15:19. I was proud of my boy for laying it down like he did. He didn't use any fluff, he didn't tell phony stories, he didn't try to woo them with his knowledge....he merely preached the word from his heart. It was pure. It was scriptural. He was obedient. Praise the lord.
Alright, I've gotta go. Peace brothers and sisters.
