Monday Mawnings

Topics: Stuff I DO

A little late, but I’ve got an ESPN team together for this weekend’s playoff games…
Also been doing some MySpace catching up with fam in the past few days. I am related to some great people, I tell you what. I’m always humored to hear people “panic” because a teen or a tween has a MySpace page. I’m sorry, folks, but giving them a set of car keys is much more dangerous to their development. Old fogies need to understand technology before they condemn it.
Still mad at Adobe…
Spending way too much time making videos for church. Gotta improve. Drastically. Two hours for a 10 minute countdown / announcements presentation for 30-50 people is just terrible efficiency.
Pastor Daryl’s message on “Vision” yesterday was just incredible.
Tarheels are scaring me.
There will be a basketball goal in my driveway sometime in the next week. That’s good.
Upward Basketball started Saturday for Travis. He’s so excited.
Some days it’s really difficult to keep it all together. Today is one of those days. I’m very overwhelmed with a lot of things. My kids are getting old. I seem to have lost the ability to do my job as well as I should. I have responsibilities at church that I’m having more and more difficulty doing well. I very desperately want to have friends but can’t find the time to cultivate any relationships at all. I can’t even find time to be what I should to my family, or even just to my wife. I need to get in shape – I’m slipping really badly there. I’m sick of blogs but I love reading some of them, and I want to keep mine up to date.
If the board meeting tonight takes up more than an hour I’m going to scream.
I wanna do something with the youth at church, but I honestly can’t find God’s will about it. I’m incredibly willing – more willing than I’ve ever been before, but the opportunity just isn’t there. I have no idea why God is burdening me with something that He doesn’t seem to want to happen right now. I suppose it’s because I don’t have time to do what I’m supposed to be doing, anyway. Or maybe I haven’t learned to manage myself right.
Too much running around in the old noggin. Insanity awaits.
