Work- Contracts are published and awaiting directors signature before mailing out.  Feels good.
 
Home- In-laws stayed with us a couple days before bringing our neice, Britney back to the airport to return to California after a month stay with them here in Michigan.   Glad for their stay with us.  Doris' back has been giving her fits, and so it was nice to have their help.  They did a bunch of stuff around the house and helped with the boys too.  Thank God for them.
 
Personal / Spiritual- Attended Promise Keepers for the first time ever this past weekend at  the Joe Louis Arena.  The sessions were all good- took a bunch of notes for most of them.  Want to re-visit them in the next couple days to let them settle in.  Music was great!  Grabbed a CD- still owe Greg Wilcox $4 more for it.   Good bonding time with the guys.  Doug Price snores, but the hipe was worse than reality!  The hotel rooms provided vivid memories with carpet that your feet stuck to and other upgrade features too numerous to list. 
 
Wade has WAY too many useless musical lyrics stored in that bald hard drive between his shoulders.  Impressive actually.
 
 Greg Wilcox drives like me- "Doug, Doug McPherson" (radios).  Did some confession sharing with the guys in our van of some of the sin areas that we struggle with.  Greg pointed out the pride issue in me (CD purchase). 

Need to keep seeking God for His will re: the church's future.  My anxiety about the facility needs and financial limitations has dropped a ton.  Hope that is because my faith has increased, and not just because I've been distracted by all the noise in my life in the past week or so.
 
Still praying for Wayne of C&W Tools....
  
learnin' to walk by faith and NOT by sight,
