Christmas 2007
I have to say that this was a most wonderful and delightful Christmas. Everyone (all three of my children plus a...
Undeliverable Gifts: Christmas 2003
Tomorrow's the night before Christmas three dogs in my house two cats are in hiding I hope there's no mouse... That's the easy part of Christmas. My food box/Christmas gifts delivery for Lazarus Ministries hasn't turned out to be as simple as hoped. I've made 2 trips...
Falsely Accused?
Earlier this week, I had the unforntunate experience of a visit from the local Animal Cruelty Investigator. In the aftermath, I cried - sobbed, harder than I have in since we lost our schnauzer last year. Before that - God alone knows when I've cried my eyes out like...
How’s that diet going, anyway?
So - does anybody read this stuff anyway? I'm still sticking pretty close to the Atkins eating and I'm down 30 lbs since I started. I still feel really much better than I did before I started on this way of life and I've noticed that I no longer seem to have the...

Still trying the Atkins Way
OK - I'm not really evangelizing about Atkins, but, so far I've dropped about 25 lbs.... I'm down to the smallest clothes in the closet. Granted, I used to have smaller ones before the house burned and I got to start all over on my wardrobe. There have been a few...
Braves 10, DiamondBacks 6
My second major league baseball game! Both have been trips to see the Braves in Atlanta - a beautiful ballpark. We were running late due to the service at Famous Dave's Barbeque being a bit slower than we would have liked - and the parking lot on I-75/85 getting down...
Hope for the Church?
Today John Freund sent me a link that was a bright spot: LeavenDenver.org. Reading thru the site - especially the "Your Pulpit" section gave me a strong sense that the Holy Spirit is indeed renewing the face of the earth. I was very moved by the woman's homily based...
