So it Begins!

Well the season is finally upon me where I burn the candle at both ends... Why you ask well I DJ on the side for fun.. I've always loved music and what better job then getting paid to do what you love. It's a great gig I don't have to book, I don't really have to deal with the clients AND I don't have to chase people down to pay me. Sight&Sound does it all for me and drops a nice chunk of change in my pocket.


No I don't use turn tables although I'd love to give it a try and see how it is. I just thought it was a cool pic. So here's the catch I don't have a DJ name and I figure that every DJ needs a "DJ name" right? Apparently according to some of my friends who've heard me DJ I do have a DJ voice ha-ha whatever that is. So anyways fire me some thoughts all will be considered and maybe there will even be a cool prize or something.

Prize ideas? I've got TONNES of music I could rip you a couple discs.

Motivation...

I'm having a really hard time getting motivated for work lately, usually a sign that I need a day off but I dunno I think its more than that. Not sure what but something. I totally still love what I do and where/how I'm doing it but I just dunno... Maybe I'm not getting enough sleep. I'm going to try and go to bed earlier. That's hard though cause I'm a night owl by nature, I love the peacefulness of the night... Everyone's asleep the phone (usually) doesn't ring and I can just chill out. Problem is I usually end up working :P

Blessings!

Life on Mars

OK, I don't normally post this kinda thing... I guess I don't normally post any normal thing haha...

I just finished watching a TV series called Life on Mars... Seemed different, caught my interest and was a sufficient time waster for when I just needed background noise during work stuffs. Well I'm thinking I want to talk about it but I don't want to wreck it for anyone else that is watching it. Let's just say I had no clue where it was going or what was going to happen...

If nobody is reading this is watching the show. OR if you are reading this and you have seen it, I'll take it from there.

ha-ha cheesy post :P

Grandparents

My Grandparents are visiting right now, which is great. I love spending time with them and it seems we don't get to do it very often, even though we live way closer then we used to we still only see them every couple months or so. When I was a kid I lived in the same town as them practically, I would go out to their farm with my Mom and hang out with them it was a blast. My Grandma always tells stories of how I'd come over and take her out on dates to McDonalds or something like that. Or going on road trips thats where I gave her the nick name Nana-Rap cause every time I had club or rap music on when she was driving she would tap her gas foot. The cool thing too is that they really love the grandkids, and my kids really love them. It's awesome to have great grandparents around. They are a huge blessing. This year they asked me if I would like to marry them when they renew their vows, of course I said yes I'd be honored but it doesn't look like its going to happen now we were going to try and get my Dad's side of the family all up in this area so we could do it but Grandma hasn't been doing so good heath wise. I think they just want to do a little thing now but we'll see.

Anyways I guess this post is just to honor them. To let them know that I love them both very much and am Thankful for the role they've played in mine and my family's lives. Thanks for being you Grandma and Grandpa!! Love ya!

Ghost Blog

So did I pick the wrong time to come back to the "Land of Blog" cause nobody seems to update anymore, commenting is scarce :P You'd think if I was blogging the rest of the blogging population would follow suit haha.


Hello-------------------------------------------------------------------->Hello

Crotch Rocket now or Harley later?

I had intentionally asked my wife in the beginning years of our marriage if I could buy a motorcycle. Knowing that she wouldn't go for it I said OK well either I buy a Crotch-Rocket now OR a Harley Davidson "later" Of course she said Harley later and I don't know if you noticed or not but I'm not exactly a little bike kinda guy ha-ha. So every so ofter I gently remind her that I'm getting my Harley.

Well being the big kid that I so can be, I decided to stop by the Harley shop in Smithers. Turns out I happen to know a few of the guys that work there (from drag racing) One of them says to me you should sit on them get a feel.... I respond with a "no thanks, to tempting" and then tell him about the deal I struck with the wife. He then says "It's OK you won't break nothing then you get to feel them out" So I think to my self no harm in sitting on one right...... WRONG :P I jumped on a couple bikes and could tell they weren't for me right away, something just wasn't right didn't feel right.... Then finally I sit on one and the guy being the great sales man that he is says "thats the one isn't it" and I had to agree, I say to him "with some minor tweaks it definitely could be" so I sit on it a little longer and feel it out a bit more.. Sure did feel great.

Anyways it made me want to speed up this process of Harley later. I've got a buddy who is willing to sell an old bike that he's not riding anymore so I can get licensed and then I want to start saving some pennies and start that process all over again.

Here's a pic of the bike that I really liked.... :D

Ludwig Van Beethoven

I wish I could play this... Amazing and its not even his best, I could listen to this for hours. Something about it calms me, I love it... music is such an amazing thing.

Romans 5: 1-2

"Therefore, since we have been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ. Through him we have also obtained access by faith into this grace in which we stand, and we rejoice in hope of the glory of God"

Justify or Justified or Justification ; God's act of declaring or making a sinner righteous before God

Grace ; The free and unmerited favor or beneficence (gift) of God

Obtained ; To gain possession of

Unmerited ; Not deserved

We have been given this free gift by the sacrifice Jesus made, willingly laying down his life to pay for our sins. Romans 5:8 says "while we were still sinners" He - JESUS laid down his life so that his blood would blot out our transgressions (sin) being reconciled (having our sins paid for) unto God.

I'd say that give us MUCH to be thankful for! What about you?

We did that song at church today and its been on my heart all day, great song! We choose to follow, choose to give our "yes" choose to hear and live!! I love that its all choice, not a "have" to We sure do serve an awesome God. As for me and my house <-- That's a cry of my heart for sure!!

I'm thankful for my family, amazing wife who yearns after the heart of God, wants so badly to be in the presence of our Lord. Two precious gifts from God, that I will continually lay down at the feet of Jesus and stand in the gap for, and the rest of the family who covers us with prayer and love. Also all my friends who help keep me in check and push me to be a better person!

Blessings!!

Psalm 18:2

The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior;
my God is my rock, in whom I find protection.
He is my shield, the power that saves me,
and my place of safety.
