This year I am trying to have a series of fun events on the calendar for the holiday season. In our community, not a lot of people travel for Christmas even though there are lots of people off of work. The idea is that if we have several small events, that we will be able [...]
No, I am not complaining about something at the church. But I will complain about this pounding headache. Ouch.
It’s been hard to get anything done today or to think clearly at all. The good news is that I have a light work day and it probably isn’t a big deal to be late on ym [...]
I just got done watching Super Size Me. Kristen checked it out from the library tonight. I’ve wanted to see it since I first heard about it, but we just got around to it.
Kristen fell asleep about 10 minutes into it. She hates documentaries thoroughly. Not that she is a prude or anything, but if [...]
There has been a lot said and written about protecting yourself from allegations and improprieties lately. Especially with the sex scandal of the Catholic church looming large in the minds of Americans. This is further developed in the media who rarely portrays pastors as normal people. They are often portrayed as sex craving hypocrites. The [...]

We had a student watch the kids last night so that Kristen and I could go out for dinner and a movie. It’s been a while since we’ve had the chance to go out, so it was nice.
We had dinner over at the Office Pub and made our way over to the Romeo Theater. I [...]
Well, I opened my big mouth and got into another debate with homeschool freaks. (Not to be offensive… but these people are so sold out to homeschooling that they can’t even be reasoned with!)
Here is what was said to me.
Drew, if you have personally had negative experiences with families who homeschool, may I suggest you [...]
As usual, everyone ate too much. As usual we all got on each others nerves. As usual I left with a headache.
I don’t know what the solution is, but there are too many people at the in-laws house to pull this off any more. For some reason it’s our kids who always get pushed around [...]
To the delight of Megan and the dismay of her parents. It started snowing today. I guess this means that golf is officially over until springtime.
I spent some time today making sure the car has it’s scraper and the ice melt is ready to come out of the basement. The pumpkins will soon be replaced [...]
