WOW.. Still here.. Should I delete it.

Saturday, April 13, 2013
Funny thing happened, I was browsing through my old favorites and stumbled across my blog.  I was/am tempted to delete it though, it's been a LONG time since I even thought about using it.

Are there actually any readers still out there?  Is there any point to doing a blog again.  I've definitely got lots to post/talk about but is there a point.

Let me know if you're still out there..

Hello My Friend, it's been a long time!

I want you all to know I read your blogs regularly.

I know I don't updated often especially as of late. Truth be told I haven't even had a desire to blog lately, I've often thought about just deleting the blog and moving on but can't bring my self to do it. I'd miss the avenue to vent or would I?

Life goes on, whether I blog or not ;) yet here I am and much has changed over the last couple months. I've read some really incredible books, life changing even. I'm still studying Grace, and honestly could probably do it for the rest of my life, I have had rabbit trails of study, usually sparked from Grace studies lol. If your interested in some good reads check out; The Bible - God, Ragamuffin Gospel - Brennan Manning, Reason for God - Timothy Keller, Putting Amazing Back into Grace - Michael Horton and I am currently reading Counterfeit God's - Timothy Keller.

Work has had its ups and downs, this past summer was one of the slowest in 3 years, but were back into FULL swing Sept, Oct and Nov so far. Oct was so busy I really don't even know where it went. Tom and I have been toying with a few different thoughts, should we get a shop, should we hire someone, how far and often should we vacation :P Speaking of Vacation I'm SUPER STOKED to be going to Naslund's retirement game on Dec 11th were flying down Saturday morning and flying home Sunday morning so it's a quick trip but will be fun fun fun fun! Sushi for lunch. Game at night then pull an all nighter doing whatever the heck we want haha.

Christy and I want to buy a house, were looking at a few options but were not sure whats happening on that front right now. We really need to fix up/paint the trailer and go from there. Also amazingly enough my lovely wife has asked me to buy her something, and of course it happens to be costing at a minimum 10G. The shocker is that she never asks me to buy her anything I send her away for the first time (not by my choice) by herself (with her mom) on a Vacation to Edmonton mall and tell her she needs to spoil HER and she comes back spoiling me and the kids. She just won't do it. So I'm gonna do it for her, we talked about buying a brand new Ford Fiesta. But I think she's changed her mind now and wants a mini-van, seems more practical for our life at the moment. So were vehicle shopping right now..

T is in grade 1 and doing really good, he's a smart kid which he gets from him Mom! Liv is going to strong start and enjoying her time with mommy. They're both growin like weeds and are super fun and are REALLY good when they're SLEEPING ;-)

Life has been going good, can't complain - nobody really listens to that anyways ;)

That's all for now I've gotten tired of typing haha I'm going to bed.
Blessings my friends see ya again when I pop my head up!

Psalm 62:1

Saturday, January 16, 2010
"My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him."

It's amazing how the right scripture at the right time can bring everything to an amazing re-focusing in your life. I've been crazy busy with work literally working 12-16 hour days easy. I've been using it as an excuse and my devotion time has been suffering. I've been so tired, so worn out and couldn't put a finger on why.
"MY SOUL FINDS REST IN GOD ALONE"
The truth is I'm warn out and tired because I haven't been eating, I've let my my sword sit and get dull. In turn I've been suffering because of it, getting weaker and weaker. I know that I don't "have" to spend time with God, but I choose to I want to, because the truth is "MY SOUL FINDS REST IN GOD ALONE" My strength comes from God.

Psalm 28:7
The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and I am helped. My heart leaps for joy and I will give thanks to him in song.
Psalm 73:26
My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

I find my STRENGTH in God alone, I can't rely on my own strengths they will fail every time, it is in His word and in His presence that I am rejuvenated and my strength comes from him!

Psalm 119:103
"How sweet are your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth!"

Blessings friends!

Sleep? Whats that??

Sunday, December 27, 2009
So, I've been very busy....

Christmas was great, was nice to be able to spoil the kids once again and get spoiled by friends and family. I got some great gifts this year. I'm not very big on Christmas, I'm not a 100% why but I'm not. I'm learning to be for my kids sake. So they get to have all the fun with it when the get old ;-)

Work has been crazy busy lately its hard to keep up, I'm not complaining at all just very busy. It's been great cause after the Euro-can announcement things seemed to really grind to a halt for about a month or so. So we were and are able to catch up on things that got missed and didn't have to skimp out over the holidays. Granted we didn't go nearly as crazy as we did last year but we still spent to much money :-P

Things don't show any sign of slowing anytime soon either so thats cool. I'm gonna have to take to napping when I can so I can get some sorta sleep happening. New Years is quickly approaching and I'll be DJ'ing again this year, HUGE party its actually a lot of fun to DJ. Anyways I figured since I haven't updated for a little while I better, not like anyone would notice it seems none of you are updating either. Wednesday were having dinner guests, and I offered to cook for it so I'll be making a dish I made actually quite sometime ago now but here's the rough recipe;

**1 Onion ~ diced
**Couple of garlic cloves crushed
some oil in the pan to saute the garlic and onion
**Lots fresh mushrooms sliced and sauted then added to the onions and garlic
**9 boneless chicken breasts. (First I'll bbq'd them with sweet chilli sauce, seasoning salt, coarse pepper.) Then I'll cut them into bite sized pieces.
**Red and Yellow and Orange peppers diced up. Then I added the chicken and peppers to the pan and **Cream then some **Dry white wine
Then I'll add some more of the **Sweet chili sauce to the mix and let simmer for about 15 mins or more

Christy will be making a fresh green salad to go with it and we'll be having fresh Brownies and Ice Cream for desert.

So ya, looking forward to that we have some friends in for out of town that we want to hang out with so we figured after the great meal they fed us when we visited them in Vancouver that we would do the same here :-D

G'nite all I'm off to bed before midnight lol

Blessings

Christmas is coming...

Wednesday, December 09, 2009
So Christmas is coming, I haven't done any shopping which is TOTALLY normal haha. I did get a the new iPhone even though Steph didn't give me any inside advice :-P It should be here any day HOPEFULLY... My phone died like I said in my previous post so I need something to fill that void.

Work has been ok, not great but good enough. I need to get more sleep but that's totally self inflicted.. I was pretty excited to start blogging again but I seem to have lost that motivation, it comes and goes I suppose.. Like most of you though I have noticed that it's been dead around the land of Blog.

Anyone have exciting Christmas plans or are you guys just staying home??

Does anyone leave Christmas shopping till Christmas eve like me?

Anyways I'm still DJ'ing lots this season and Jenny was the only one who thought of a DJ name for me, so you win the prize! Pick some tunes I'll rip you a good disc.

Ok well I'm out for now later!

I need a new phone...

I could just get a new blackberry..

My current phone is broken :( The mobile network turns itself off, the battery drains instead of charges when plugged in...
