<p>I know that it&#8217;s been a few days (or weeks) since my last post, it&#8217;s been wild.  I&#8217;ve been swamped and trying to get my &#8220;sea legs&#8221; at the new job.  But it&#8217;s been very eventful and a blessing.  Sid and I accomplished several goals last week: we sent our first mortgage payment in 10+ months AND we finally got our Disney Annual Passes&#8230;so, we feel that some of the hard fighting to survive is finally starting to ease up.</p>
<p>So let&#8217;s look at what this weekend has brought&#8230;<span id="more-2859"></span></p>
<ul>
<li>I actually got to preach this Sunday at <a href="http://canthisbechurch.com/"><strong>Church of the Suncoast</strong></a>.  If you&#8217;d like to listen to it, click <a href="http://www.canthisbechurch.com/podcasts/Remember-Communion" target="_blank"><strong>HERE</strong></a>.</li>
<li>I knew that it was going to be a wild day, I had a volunteer call and cancel at 9:00ish on Saturday night, and then I found out that our bass player had MAJOR heart surgery, AND one of the set up guys wound up having a stroke.</li>
<li>I was preaching on Communion, last week we talked about Baptism, and then baptized 9 people!</li>
<li>I&#8217;m not sure how many preachers I have heard connect Communion with Disney World and Verps&#8230;.There&#8217;s probably a reason for that&#8230;. ??</li>
<li>First service went well, and then some friends of mine from Orlando walked in.  They drove all the way just to hear me speak and hang out.  I am blessed.</li>
<li>After church, we all went to Vallartas, and Sid got off work a little early and got to join us.</li>
<li>I came home and absolutely crashed.  Sid had some errands to run, and then she came home&#8230;and crashed.</li>
<li>I spent the evening working on ww.canthisbechurch.com and watching NASCAR from Atlanta.</li>
<li>And there are days that I miss my old home town.</li>
<li>But tomorrow, Sid and I are spending Labor Day at Animal Kingdom&#8230;we&#8217;re opening the park at 9:00am.</li>
<li>We are truly blessed!</li>
</ul>
