Marriage Counseling

Caitlyn and I just had our first marriage counseling session with Pastor Jim Maness from Sand Lake Wesleyan Church. I thought that the session was very educational and enjoyable as well.

August 4 is approaching at break-neck speeds.

More to come later.

Feel like there's too much hanging over your head?











May has been one of the busiest months of my life. When I decided to quit my job as a morning stocker, I expected to have three jobs for about a week or so...not three.

As soon as I started my new "full time" job, I realized it was going to be hard work, and I may have to give up my job at the library. But I was willing (albeit begrudgingly) if it meant paying the bills. So I had three part-time jobs for two weeks. When that was over I thought I could take it easy. But then another job opportunity happened to present itself at the library. I thought to myself, I really don't need it, but what the heck! I might as well try. And so I have three jobs again for a week and a half while I quit my full-time job (in which I never got the chance to get up to full-time) and am now working two positions at the library. One in Reference, and one playing video games with kids. I absolutely love it. I was overjoyed to be able to stay at the library. It is an absolutely wonderful place to work.


But then what about that part-time, full-time job? I felt a little sheepish for quiting after only a month of working there. I thought to myself, "God...why work somewhere for a month? Why give me the opportunity if you knew I would get this better job so soon after getting hired?" But then my mother reminded me of the Israelites in the desert lead by Moses in Exodus 16 and the food that God provided them. It was never too little or too much, and none of it was to be stored away except the day before the Sabbath. Perhaps that Hobby Lobby job was my manna? Enough of a paycheck to pay the bills until I received the position at the library? Regardless I am very thankful and very excited about what I can help accomplish at the library.


Things should be settling down now (knock on wood), and I will once again have the time to keep you all updated on wedding events.


Stay tuned for more of Caitlyn and Lee's wedding after this...

Another Ugliest Dress of the Week!

I think this woman might have taken the old gospel lyrics "on the wings of the snow white dove" a little too seriously.











Swan lake anyone?
