Excuses


Excuses

I’m full of them right now as to why I haven’t updated my blog in the last two months. I’d have to say that the biggest one would be time. Previously I’d update my blog while I was at work. But lately things have been going ninety miles an hour from the moment I walk in the door until the second I leave. Two weeks ago I started tracking exactly what I do while I’m at work. I discovered that I do an insane amount of work for one person. Both my boss and I do. We’re currently using these ever changing and ever expanding list of task to petition the all mighty director (think pointy haired boss from Dilbert) to get us some help. If that doesn’t work I may take up residence under my desk to eliminate my commute time so I can spend more time in the office.

Now I bet your wondering why I have time to blog today? Well the truth of the matter is that I don’t. However, my boss has taken today as a sick day. And as they say – While the Cat’s away the mice will play! Lol

So my life isn’t all work. But by the time I get home the last thing I want to do is get on the computer and write about it(another excuse). I’ve been keeping busy with church and hanging out with friends. Danny and I (Danny is the youth pastor) have been doing a lot with the kids in the youth group lately. We’re currently working on a Christian concert scheduled for the end of October called Rockn’tober. We have 4 or 5 local Christian bands scheduled to play in the park on 10/27/07 (I’ll post more details later. Hopefully!). We also helped with a community event last weekend called Celebrate Natomas. We handed out about 1000 bottles of water to people at the event. Not to shabby for a church of only 65! And yes, I dressed up as a clown for our
Sunday school department. I’ve attached a picture for prosperities sake.

This Friday night we had a family fun night at Scandia. It’s the equivalent of Boondocks for those of you from Colorado. We had a blast! Luke and I (I live with Luke’s family) went on this Giant ride called the “Scandia Screamer”. I think it was the most fun I’d ever had on a ride. This thing goes up 168 feet in the air and spins you all over the place. The catch is though that you can’t scream! There’s a noise ordinance because it’s near a residential area. If you scream the kick you off the ride! Luke was absolutely hilarious on the on the “Scandia Screamer”. I laughed so hard I cried! Below are pictures from Scandia!

Let’s see what else… I still make it up to Stockton pretty often to see Janelle and the crew. Maddie and Tristan are getting so big. I remember when they moved to California and Maddie had not teeth and couldn’t walk. Now she chatters on all the time and is in ballet lessons! She’s such a cutie! Tristan just started kindergarten a few weeks ago and seems to like it pretty well.

OH I’m coming to Colorado for the weekend! I am coming out to get the remainder of my belongings and bring them to storage in Sacramento. I still haven’t had any takers on my house. If anyone is interested in renting it please let me know! 888 sf 1 bedroom 1.5 bathroom loft. Great location in Denver! Only $750/ month!

Love you all! See you soon!!
