Final Football Game

After Trisha failed to catch the first touchdown Ethan ran up the middle, Nate was nice enough to get some footage at the game. I finally got around to putting it on YouTube… check it out.

Just like that, it’s indoor soccer…

$2.98

I just filled my truck all the way for the first time in a year.

Gas was $2.98 and I saved an additional $.20 per gallon with my Price Chopper card.

I wept… tears of joy.

Football Season…

As I wrap up the Pop Warner football season with my boys (last game… Saturday night… under the lights) I had to laugh at this video. After all the madness that we’ve had to endure on Sundays ( something about grown men who still wish they were boys, 7-9 year olds, and a leather football that brings out a level of insanity thats not normal… yet a whole lotta fun! ), I was left to wonder… is this the same guy that has been calling our games!?!?

You have to see it to believe it…

What? Me Worry!?!?

In light if the current financial chaos around the world, and listening to our two wonderful options for president blabber back and forth, it’s hard not to worry. I haven’t lost millions of dollars in my 401k, or thousands for that matter, but the uncertainty of the future definitely has many people at least a little bit worried.

Will I be able to provide for my family in the coming year? Will my business continue to thrive in the struggling economy? Is it time to shut off the HD package on the DirecTV account, and the unlimited text messaging on the iPhone? I don’t know the answers to these questions.

Yeah… there’s question, and there’s worry. But here’s the reality of it all… we aren’t really in control of what happens.

25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life ?

Matthew 6:25-27

iTunes PLUS!?!? Where is it!?

Why are there still CDs on iTunes using DRM!?!? C’MON LABELS!!!!

Just recently I was forced to abandon my usual “New Music Tuesday” shopping spree on iTunes and jump over to AmazonMP3 to pick up the new Marc Broussard CD and the new Jon McLaughlin CD. (I love the new song… “Beating My Heart”. Check out the video here) I know I may have missed out on a couple of exclusive tracks from iTunes, but there’s no reason to not get a regular old MP3 anymore.

there are times every now and then 
i forget why im breathing out 
and why im breathing in 
and i get so sick with the little things 
i cant relax when it’s happening 
to know what it means 
it means 
(bridge) 
this whole world will take me down 
without you standing by my side 
my side 
youre holding onto me 
youre making everything inside 
come alive 
(chorus) 
and then i open my eyes 
and i know youre beating my heart 
beating my heart 
look at the sky 
i know youre beating my heart 
beating my heart 
i go extra miles to show 
that you are the one thing that ive got 
look at the sky 
i know youre beating my heart 
beating my heart
