Okay, so here’s the rundown from the past happenings in my not-so-happening life. As indicated by an earlier post, I spent last weekend taking some middle school students from Christ Our Hope Church to a retreat in the mountains of Virginia. Great trip, sleepless nights, lots of fun, yada yada yada. The picture below is one of my kids (weighing in at 70 lbs) being blobbed by another kid (weighing in at 140-150 lbs). You can see the results for themselves.
We got home from camp on Sunday evening and the next day we find out that our severely pregnant friends Michael & Julie have finally gone into labor, as they were eight (count ‘em, eight!) days overdue. They had the young little whippersnapper the next morning, and Janel and I got to go hold a kid who had been born only about twelve hours earlier. Fantastic stuff, and no, it does not make me want one yet. I’ll just play with theirs, thank you very much.
This past weekend a good friend of my pastor came into town. This man’s name is Patrick and he is a minister with the Presbyterian Church in Uganda, based out of Kampala City. I got to meet him last year, but it was very cool to see him again and hear of the incredible work God is doing in Uganda. Sorry, no pics.
Then last night, being the brilliant husband that I am, I managed to scare my wife half to death. I forgot about a staff meeting that I had at the Y (yesss, my preciousss, curse them, we hatesss them!) and instead of calling my wife to let her know I’d be late, just did nothing. I am not the hugest fan of cell phones, so I often forget to bring mine with me, so she couldn’t reach me there or at the church office or at the YMCA office. After I was two hours late getting home, she naturally was a bit worried. I’m a big jerk.
shame on you drewfus. i would have killed zack if he’d done that.
you have 10 year olds that weigh 140 pounds?!?!
