Life is Good

I haven’t had much to say so far this year.  I’m still going to school, this semester is a theology class again, Jesus Christ, Holy Spirit and the Church. The semester started off a little better than last.  Last semester the faculty member was horribly sick the first night of class, then missed the second class because of an intestinal blockage. Thankfully he’s back on his feet and hit the ground running last week.  Of course, the Martin Luther King JR holiday gave us a day off the second week of the semester.

I am attempting to read the Bible through this year.  Not sure I’ve ever done that. I’ve read the entire New Testament, but never the Old. So far so good. I’m tracking my reading on my page: http://learningtoworship.blogspot.com

I am also participating in a 2010 Reading Challenge my goal is 52 books this year.  My best year ever was 2008 with 40 books.  Last year I only had time to read 38. So we’ll see how this year goes.  I have a lot of great books on my “To be read” pile as well as my kindle where I can have an ENDLESS supply of books.  Many for free!

School is also a priority.  I plan to graduate next Spring! Which means 1 unit this summer, 5 next fall and 5 next spring.  But I don’t think it will be too stressful.  After surviving last spring with 8 units between Spring and Spring 2 plus the Eiro project.  I can do this!

2010 will be a good year. 

MLK tradition

The last several years we've spent Martin Luther King Jr day at Lrgoland. This year Mark and I came down sunday after church. Hoping to beat the rain. We did get a few sprinkles but thankfully nothing more. We'll see how tomorrow goes.

It's all in how you look at it

My old friend Jimmie sent this to me... very interesting...

Basketball Time

It's basketball season for KYL and Mark is still playing. He wanted to quit, but it appears we've convinced him that he should stick it out.  I think he really does enjoy it, he's just not use to a coach that's a screamer.  But hopefully his confidence can grow and he'll feel better about it.

He didn't score, only took a couple of shots, but he did get 4 rebounds and a couple of steals.  He also tended to drive the kid he was guarding a little crazy.  He manages to stay in front of the player so he can't get the ball. Of course, he doesn't block out so if someone shoots the guy he's guarding can usually get the rebound and score.  But one step at a time...

Before and After

Mark has a thing about not wanting to get his hair cut, but in KYL one of the rules is to have neat SHORT hair.  So tonight Erwin cut his hair.  Thankfully, it went well, no screaming, yelling, or crying. And it looks pretty good.

Such a cute kid!
