- Great service today, the worship was phenomenal as always. Dave introduced the song "Forever Reign" by Hillsong to the church today and it was an instant hit
- I taught a message called "The Heart of a Minister" (Galatians 4:8-20) which looked at three essential ingredients that should be in the heart of every person who wants to effectively serve God (whether professionally or simply as followers of Jesus)
- 2 inches of snow last night = a 20% attendance drop this morning
- My "fat" pants are starting to look baggier and my "fit" pants are starting to feel looser. That makes me feel good about going to the gym 5-6 days a week lately!
- Love our Friday night Home Fellowship. We're going through the book "Who's In Charge Here?" by Bob Barnes. Very encouraging to learn together with other people striving to be better parents
- I took Emily and Lily to see the Harlem Globertrotters in Hartford yesterday. It brought me back to when I saw them at the same venue as a kid in the late 70s (with all the awesome guys that also appeared on Scooby Doo like Curly and Meadowlark)
- We had a Barbie-themed birthday party for Emily today -lots of fun and loud-shrieks
- I can't believe Emily is turning 7 this week...time flies!
- It is amazing how much time you can devote to top-secret projects when you cut out a bunch of television
- I don't care about the Oscars at all...seriously not even a litle. I've never liked award shows and this year it looks lamer than ever
- I'm contemplating what I'm going to give up for lent this year? I'm thinking country music. Any suggestions?

Giving up country music is a great idea. My other suggestions: give up crocheting, curling, or coffee. It's seems like last year a lot of people gave up coffee.
But seriously, I've been thinking about lent, too. Not sure what to give up. Sweets maybe? Chocolate? Or maybe I'll read through the New Testament again like I did last year.

Just to be clear, country music was a joke as I willingly and gratefully give it up EVERY day! :)
I have landed on TV/Movies. Should be a bit of a challenge for me...
Let me know what you decide on, and I'll pray for you.

I wish you told me you were catching the Trotters. I would have joined you! Maybe you've given up me for Lent.

Yeah sorry, someone offered free tix. Of course I'm not giving you up for Lent -but I am giving up TV and movies, so we'll have to find a new hang out activity! :)
