It has been more than a month since I last up dated... Ooh that smacks of a confession does it not? "Bless me father, yadda, yadda..." I left off telling about my car saga, which is now just fine; the car that is. The saga too for that matter.

I have already had quite a day, and it is only 7:40 A.M. On my way to school this morning, I responded to an accident. I have first aid and CPR training, but my certification is expired. When I drove up on the scene, there were about 4 or 5 people standing around just looking at a man laying in the middle of the road. I know that it is surprising ( Read more... )

The Summons of the Lord of Hosts...great read; My wife...great partner; My son...great baby. My life is full of good stuff right now, and for that I am both happy, and thankful.
