So I am having one of those nights, where I don’t know which way is up. I feel stressed, but when I think about it, I cannot think of anything that is causing the stress. So, then I wonder if it is the enemy

Ready to go home.
Have you ever looked at a computer monitor/object for so long at one time that when you take your eyes off of it you can’t really focus on anything else at a different depth? Yeah, it’s certainly time to go home. 15 min to go! Whoo hoo.
Alexis and I are baby sitting!
You gotta watch what a network admin does….
Yes it’s a commercial, but it is what I do… and times that by 155 clients that we have and now you know why Travis is grumpy sometimes and just wants to stay far far away from anything that has electrons flowing through it.
Watch it here.
Looking forward…
I’m actually looking forward to doing my journaling time today. This is good, it means something is changing. Have I mentioned that the second half of my day 4 days of the week is quite boring… I have to try really hard to find things to do. Yikes… it’s not my company though, I’m contracted at the moment to another place right now, and I’m only here for “help desk” things.
Life Lessons
I just read through today
Work
So here I am at work, actually at a client of ours in Portland’s perl district (a great place to visit, but not to be stuck in bored out of your mind unable to visit all the cool things around you), bored, yet on edge that because I’m bored I’m not doing the right thing. I need to just chill out. Gosh, it’s hard though. If I’m not doing something productive I feel that I’m going to be in trouble. I have things to do, but I’m waiting on this or that… strange. Anyway, better go before someone asks why I’m on blogger 🙂
Life Lessons
The pastor at our church challenged us about a month ago to really journal, now I have been journaling for the most part everyday the last four years. Well, except the last year, it’s been more like once to three times a week, there are a number of reasons as to what caused this change, mostly due to apathy and being “busy”. Well, I really am trying to change this and get back into journaling and blogging, I enjoy writing and I know God has gifted me with the ability to write for a reason. So, our pastor gave the entire congregation on Wednesday night what he calls “life lessons”, it’s a journal with a reading plan, and a very simple journaling plan. It’s what Jason (our pastor) calls “S.O.A.P.” which stands for Scripture, Observation, Application, and Prayer. This is kind of what I
A New Year Has Come
Well, I was going to link to a video of the weekend before Christmas service at our church, but they don’t have it on the website anymore. We now have to pay to see old services… I would like to know the rational behind that one. Anyway. My wife did a wonderful dance/sign language interpretation to Celine Dion’s “A New Day has come”, maybe I can get some video of it at some point. Anyway the words are great and you can apply it to the new year.
A new day has…come
I was waiting for so long For a miracle to come
Everyone told me to be strong Hold on and don’t shed a tear
Through the
darkness and good times I knew I’d make it through And the world thought I had
it all But I was waiting for you
Hush, love
I see a light in the sky Oh,
it’s almost blinding me I can’t believe I’ve been touched by an angel with love
Let the rain come down and wash away my tears Let it fill my soul and drown my
fears Let it shatter the walls for a new, new sun A new day has…come
Where
it was dark now there’s light Where there was pain now there’s joy Where there
was weakness, I found my strength All in the eyes of a boy
Hush, love
I
see a light in the sky Oh, it’s almost blinding me I can’t believe I’ve been
touched by an angel with love Let the rain come down and wash away my tears Let
it fill my soul and drown my fears Let it shatter the walls for a new, new sun A
new day has…come
A new day has…come Ohhh, a light… OOh
