My big man and little man are sleeping fast away. I was close to being there nearly an hour ago, then my phone rang. Err. I wasn't too annoyed though because it was my sister concerned about my mom. Her ringer was off on her phone so... she hadn't answered it all night. All is fine though.
Just as an FYI, we have the new version of Mozilla Firefox and I don't like it. If I misspell something on here, it underlines it like it would do in Word or something. I'd rather do a spell check at the end than see little streaks of red under my words.
So... my brother is officially a United States Marine. Last week was filled with much joy and pride (good pride... as in proud of him). After his graduation all of our family made the trek to TN to spend a few nights here. We celebrated our Champion Christmas on Saturday morning, and they all left later that afternoon. He'll leave January 8 to head to Camp LeJune for ITB = Infantry Training Batallion. I went running with him on Saturday morning... and thoroughly enjoyed it. I couldn't stay caught up with him the entire time, but kept a good pace. It encouraged me to continue running... and now we are looking into one of those seemingly fancy jogging strollers.
To my complete surprise, W bought me an iPod for Christmas. I was really shocked, because I wasn't expecting one at all. I'm excited though because when this stroller does come about, it will be nice to have some tunes to strap to my arm while working out.
I feel spiritually empty right now, and don't really even feel like filling myself. Encouraging myself in the Lord is one of the hardest things for me to do. I'm going to listen to Heather Clark tonight (Glorious Praise - my 2nd favorite album of hers, #1 being Dark Yet Lovely) and maybe that will help me to rest well and encourage me some. Does anyone know what I'm talking about or is it just a Michelle complex? IE... if I want to dream crazy spiritual dreams, putting in Jason Upton is the way to go. Who knows. The Spirit searches all things... even the deep things of God.

I understand, Michelle. I can relate. It's been a while since I've been at church due to the twins' arrival, and I really need a refill of the Holy Ghost... and sleep. But these places are really good for us. CDs help. Books help. Preaching on TV can help. But only as catalysts to get us to the place where we focus on Him. None of them are the ultimate end-all, fix-all to our spirituality. Just keep on keepin' on. He will never leave us nor forsake us; He is with us...even until the end of the age.
Praying for you and yours,
Alan
