FRIDAY

• Sid came home and then we headed over to some good friend’s for dinner and cigars.
• We had a blast and enjoyed spending time with our friends and family.
• Sid and I came home, and watch an episode of Numbers and then crashed.
• At around 1:00 am, I woke up in SERIOUS pain.  My back (or hip) was messed up – it might have been a dig under me most of the night, or just sleeping wrong, either way, I was in a lot of pain.
• I did the best I could, until I finally laid on the floor, pulled a blanket and a pillow, then fell (sort of) asleep.

SATURDAY

• I woke up (very stiff) and started on my day.
• Sid went to her 2nd job, and I started getting the house ready for A2.
• As the day went on, my hip (back) started to loosen up, so all in all, I started to feel better.
• I watched Wyatt Earp while I cleaned, I have never seen it, not a bad movie, but I still prefer Tombstone.
• Acts 2 was cool, a little slim people-wise, but good times.
• Today was the first time I actually watched and entire NASCAR race from start to finish. Truly amazing.
• I used to think that it was a bunch of cars driving fast and turning left, but I am starting to understand race strategy.
• I made a little dinner for Sid and we watched the end of the race together and then hit the bed.
• I figured out the best way I could sleep, and passed out.

SUNDAY

• 6:45 came early and I felt….pretty good.
• The typical Sunday morning routine (shower, dogs out, dogs fed, shirts ironed) and then hit the road.
• Today was my first time opening the church for the Worship Team…not that I have never opened a church before, but I was a little nervous about the alarm code working.
• Adam, the youth guy, was already there, so there was no need to fear.
• Dave and Michelle were joining me in the tech booth, so it was a “family affair” at Common Ground.
• Danny, Sr. Pastor, over at Common Ground, was on point and delivered a message that hit VERY close to home.  It was really powerful stuff.
• After church, I came home and waited for my lovely bride to come home.
• One thing I love about Sid, she is watching services from NewSpring Church, in S. Carolina, and feeding quotes via her Twitter…I LOVE that she does that!
• Sid fixed a GREAT dinner (stir fry veggies and tofu) – she did some voodoo to the tofu and it was great.
• We spent (and are spending) the rest of the night chilling and just detoxing from the week.

WEEKLY LOOK AHEAD

• A couple of key meetings this week. It’s going to be great, challenging, but great.
• The Job Hunt continues even more this week, the couple of opportunities I had, dried up.  So, we’re starting back a square one again…again.
• I’m excited because Star Trek launches this weekend, Sid and I cannot wait.
