Taxes, SpringBreak, Women!

Well, I pray that this is not a long one.

Taxes: We pay too much in taxes. I love living in this country, but the taxes are horrible. I did mine last night. This maybe the very thing to cause me to jump off the fence: Get married, buy a house, and start having children! Whew!

SpringBreak: My plans are to go to Texas. I will get to visit friends there and spend a day in Oklahoma City visiting friends there as well. I love visiting those I have not seen in a while. Texas: Red, Hot and Blue, Kolaches, and etc. I'm ready tonight! These are not on my diet!

Women: Well, there must be a lot of single mothers out there! All that has come my way lately has been those with children. I have concluded for now- NO CHILDREN! I love children and woudl love to have my own natural children. Remember, I spend 8 hours a day with other people's children. I even call them mine. But for now, NO CHILDREN!

Family: Everything is going alright. My mom is feeling better here lately. Sisters are about the same. I have one niece that is graduating this may. I can't believe it! Have a blessed week!

Christian Education

As I have mentioned before, I love what I do. The one BIG thing I don't like is......working with Adults. Give me the kids and I could do this for free. Include the adults and I want a raise and the works. I am an adult so I understand some of them. I don't understand all of them. I hate it when adults act like children. I am prepared to deal with kids, but adults raises my blood pressure. I know every job have their good side and bad side. Take the adults away and I will be in Education till I die. Something tells me they will still be around. I guess one of my major reason is that I some that wants what I got whatever that is. I continue to tell people when it comes to what I do, if someone does it better let he or she do it. There is so many things I like doing and I can change in a second. Most people don't understand that about me. Some may think oh he's not committed. I can especially when I am left a lone. I have worked with churches and school where the adults like to play the power game. I don't care for the game lock me up with the kids and I would be just fine. They don't want to lock me up, but play those silly powertrip games. I don't like it. I will say it again, I don't like.



Sorry for the rant! I feel better. You problably dont, but boy do I. I will go to sleep now and hopefully God will make it a better day without much adult interactions.

I am still a work in progress!!!!

Today or Tonight I am writing from LAX airport. A 6 hours layover allowed me to think about life as I listen to all of these big wigs in the Crown room. I began to think about how blessed I am and I don't even know it. I thank God many times tonight for all of my blessings. I am returning from Darden Garden Idaho(northern portion) where I was involved in a youth rally. The kids were great like always and I got a chance once more to watch God work. They loved being together. It reminds me of my picture of heaven. I believe lives were touch and changed. I know mine was. I am a work in progress. i wish I had it all together. I don't. I am thankful for may things:

My students- they are great to put up with my games
My family- they get to see all of my quirks
My church family- They are awesome and I missed them today!
My future wife- I know she is out there and I will continue to prepare myself for her
My future- whatever God has planned I am will continute to seek his wisdom and guidance
My friends- I have some incredible group of friends all over america. I appreciate those who keep me humble, focused, and entertained.
My boss- I problably have many, but the one I am thinking of tonight is Misty O' she has to put up with me daily.

Before you start thinking that I am down on myself. Well, I am not. I am gratful for what I have and what I am doing. May I and you be better stewards with our time, money, and other resources. Have a blessed week! Be Good! Be God!

Life is Good!

I have been busy with my usual things like family, job, and church.

Family: Everyone is going ok. I have been spending more quality time which is good. I am trying to be a more loving person every day. My nephew's overall are doing well. I have niece that will graduate this year. I am excited she will be attending college which is good to break the pattern of my family.

Job: It has been good here lately. I am understanding more each day what my role is. My students are great. I drove a bus route the other day in a neighborhood where the houses are as big as our school building. Some of the children going into these houses are our best. They are very respectful and kind.

Church: Has been great as well. I love my church family.

Youth Rallies: Have started up again. I will be in Idaho this weekend for one. Next month I will be in Sulphur La. I will be in Searcy Arkansas for 3 weeks for Uplift bible camp. I love rallies and Uplift. I keep meeting people who were at Uplift 05, which is great. God has blessed me to be a part of some great gathering this year. I have to be honest and say I did miss Christeen in Russellville Arkansas. I have been a part of that rally since 1991. I guess I am getting old.

Have a blessed day!
