Monday night GREAT, Tuesday................


Well like I said Monday night was great and it was so fun sitting with family and discussing what Phillipians 1 meant to all of us.

You know it is kind of weird and at the same time awesome when everyone gets pretty much the same thing out of the scripture, but at the same time say it in ways that makes you understand Gods word better.I strongly beleive if anyone wants to grow to understand Gods word, you got to gather as a body of Christ and talk about it.There is just something about hearing what I already feel come out passionatly from someone elses heart.Simply amazing!!!!!!
I am so excited to start preparing for next week.

Well Tuesday was......well it started out kind of wierd. I took off work to go with Jen to her appointment for a certain procedure that took up the first half of the day.I am sitting in the waiting room waiting for Jen to get things...checked out.I look around and there is about 30 people all waiting, like me, for their loved one to have the same procedure done.And I tought to my self " WOW I did not realize this was such a busy type of procedure". I was thinking that there would be 2 or 3 people.Anyways I brought my book, Dee Browns History of the West,because I am such a nerd when it comes to old west history, when this bouncy middle age women with a Puma sweat pants and sweat shirt, came around the corner and sat one seat down from me. We made eye contact and smiled at one another and then I went back to reading my book.About two lines into book her phone begins to ring, she proceded to broker some kind of major real estate deal that I guess could not wait till she was back at the office.All the people at Brookwood heard every word and it was as if I was sitting right in front of a big PA speaker at a Bama game.Now I have bad ADD, so I fought my way having to re-read several lines just so I could understand what it was I was reading.After several phone calls and about 15 minutes later she put her phone down. But continued to check it regularly,like ever 5 seconds. I finally got into a good groove when what appears to be her 20ish year old daughter came and sat right next to her.Then I began to get the low down on everybodys boyfriend and what happend over the weekend and BLAH BLAH BLAH!!!! Finally I got the news that Jen was ready and I could bring the truck around to the curb and wait for her.THANK YOU JESUS!!!

After that we were starving so I drove by Full Moon and picked up some lunch and went home. While Jen was sleeping I was able to get some radio time in and spoke to several people from up north, including and elderly gentleman by the name of Abe from New York, who I could tell was very excited to speak to me. We spoke for 30 or 40 minutes.He was such a friendly voice and I can only wonder if he ever gets out of the house much. It is times like these that I really enjoy the hobby of ham radio.Being able to be a friend to someone like Abe, hundreds of miles away who may other wise be sitting at home lonely

God bless

Thanks honey I really appreciate all you did for me when I had my test run. It sounds like you had a crazy time in the waiting room - but believe me, you had a better time than I did! Love you!
