The last couple days have been crazy. Kesha’s best friend had her baby yesterday, and Kesha was sitting front row! A little nasty for me — but I guess whatever floats your boat.
I spent the last 5 or so hours re-painting our baby room. It needed one extra coat, but we were out of paint. So I went to pick up some new paint, but when I applied it, it was a little lighter than the previous can. So I had to make sure every nook and cranny was re-painted otherwise we would have a blotchy paint job. And that would not be good. Only the best for my little Coco Bean.
Anyhoo…Kesha is on her way home from work right now, so I had better get going.
Adios.

So Kesha and I were driving yesterday and we pull up to a stop light. At first nothing seemed out of the ordinary, but then the unexpected happened. We looked to our right, and there was a grown woman in the next car digging for gold. I mean…she was knuckle deep in her nose pickin’ some green goodies. It was nasty! But just when we were laughing our heads off, something else happened that we will never forget — something that no man should ever have to witness. Not only did she pick her nose, but she opened up her mouth and ate the runny boog. How freaking disgusting is that! I sorta freaked out and honked the horn. You would have thought she would have caught on to the fact that we just witnessed her feast — but no — she went on to repeat this vile pick-and-eat routine several times before the light changed. I sped off as quick as I can hoping to leave the memorie behind me. But sure enough, it was the last thing on my mind as I went to bed, and the first thing on my mind as I woke up this morning.
Anyhoo…I just thought I would share that with you. I hope it adds a little sunshine to your day

I have been doing a lot of introspection lately. One thing I have realized is that I don’t have the “fire” I once had. Revelation talks about a church being lukewarm — and to be honest that is how I feel a good chunk of the time.
I miss the excitement that came along with being a Christian. I remember when I first believed the gospel. I was SO thrilled to tell everyone I knew about the Lord. He was the song of my heart all day long. But now, I feel like He has been placed on the proverbial back-burner of my heart. Don’t get me wrong…I LOVE the Lord. But sometimes I don’t feel that special connection we once had.
I tried to explain it to Kesha this way: Remember that 1 gift you got that you had been hoping to get for months? For me that was my Nintendo GameCube this Christmas. Right now I am so into it. I play a couple hours a day (sometimes). I invite all my friends over to play. I try to get Kesha to play with me (and she does some of the time). But I imagine a couple years from now it will be sitting in a box in my garage.
That isn’t how I want my relationship to be with the Lord. I want Him to be the first thought in my mind when I wake up, and the last when I go to bed. I want intimacy again. I want the closeness that I once knew.
Just some thoughts.
