• Great weekend.  Sid and I got to spend some real quality time together, and I got to have some quality alone time, so it was a great weekend.
• Friday, Sid and I had a great bike ride and had some dinner, then finished the night catching up on some TV and and early bed time.
• Saturday, Sid went to work and I headed to Common Ground to finish the multi-media needs for the Sunday service.
• I’m not going to lie, I was jakked up to watch the 25th NASCAR All-Star race.  I watched it from start to finish and I was excited to see Tony Stewart, and Stewart-Haas Racing get their first win of the season.
• Sid came home, and actually watched the end of the race with me…I got me a good woman.
• Sunday AM was early, but awesome.
• Common Ground was off the chain great.  We had a guest worship leader, and the congregation was receptive and engaged.
• Danny Schaffner gave an amazing lesson.  You can listen to it HERE.
• It’s great to be a part of Common Ground, they are an amazing church, and I am learning a lot from Danny and the Staff.  if you are ever in Tampa, you should visit.
• After church, I hung out with the Ness ladies.  We visited a local Italian/Greek place…it rocked.
• Sid got home and we headed to Wal-mart and our beloved Shannon’s Market for some needed veggies and fruit.
• Sunday evening we laid very low around the house and crashed very early.
• It was a pretty low key weekend.  And I am very thankful for it.

WEEKLY LOOK AHEAD

• I have a very important lunch meeting with a local church planter Monday at Noon.  This will be a great connection, and a possible job.  Please pray.
• Tuesday is Common Ground day.  I have Staff Meeting and Creative Planning meeting after lunch.  GREAT stuff.
• Thursday is Common Ground’s Leadership Community.  We’ll be looking at the next 6 months and talking a little about “IT”.  Have I mentioned that I really LOVE Craig Groeschel.
• I’m really excited because Terminator: Salvation and Night at the Museum: Battle for the Smithsonian drop this weekend.  It’s going to be a GREAT weekend for movies.
