1. Family Ties was this show I used to watch a lot when I was a kid. Alex P. Keaton, the young Republican, seemed like a kindred spirit with me. And, the show introduced me to Billy Very and the Beaters.

2. This week has had its share of ups and downs. Thankfully, the last two days have been on the “up” side.

3. Trust is something I give my wife completely, and she give the the same to me.

4. Sometimes, when you’re thinking about buying a certain something, sometimes getting the cheapest thing doesn’t make sense; sometimes it makes more sense to spring for the best.

5. Parents like mine are a true gift from God. I hope I can raise my kids as well as they raised theirs.

6. There are times when it’s more important to listen to a person‘s heart–what they mean–rather than what was said.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to an evening home with the family, tomorrow my plans include baking some muffins and running some errands, and Sunday, I want to have lunch with my Mom and sister and nephews and stuff!

1. Why does it seem like every time my kids get a free minute, they beg to play Lego Batman on the Wii?

2. Once the children are grown, maybe Susan and I will get the opportunity to get to the UK, Italy, France, and really get out and see the world.

3. Thank you for visiting, now how about leaving a comment?

4. Christmas is my favorite holiday because is celebrates the birth of the Savior.

5. I am SO looking forward to cramming my gullet full on Thanksgiving; I’m NOT counting calories that day.

6. Sometimes I find these questions a little obtuse; I guess the “right” answer is whatever we make up our minds to be.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to making biscuits, tomorrow my plans include boxing in some lally columns with Pastor Dave and Sunday, I want to welcome Susan home from her conference!

1. When pigs fly I’ll set up a system of nets, as they’re delicious, and I could catch some.

2. Some people can eat all they want and never gain weight? I mean, seriously?!

3. Call me if you’re looking for a fill in drummer; I’m looking for some extra work..

4. I’m really looking to an evening at home with Susan and without kids, if you know what I mean.

5. The most entertaining person in my life  is my son Matthew because he comes up with the funniest things to say.

6. One of the albums put out by English super group “The Who” was called “ who’s next? “

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to a romantic evening with Susan, tomorrow my plans include helping Susan move one of her friends, and Sunday, I want to share a cool Sunday School game I’ve had brewing in my mind for several weeks!

1. One of my strongest beliefs is a teaching of Jesus recorded in John 14:6: “I am the way, the truth, and the life; no man cometh to Father but through Me.”

2. The number of calories I ate at the “Spruce Head Young Men’s hangout” last night (hosted at my house) must’ve been huge!

3. The sky is cloudy with a threat of rain and wind and cold, so I think I better go check the fuel in the generator and let it warm up–’cause we’re probably gonna lose power.

4. Snuggling next to Susan is comforting to me.

5. I always thought I’d be a dad, but I really didn’t understand how much enjoyment and satisfaction it brings.

6. I was only a moment until my clothes shredded off my now hairy body, and my canine teeth elongated to the point of not being able to be contained behind my thin, shriveled lips; and then I went outside to look at the full moon, almost fully mutated into a Werewolf.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to hanging it with the boys (Susan’s at a women’s retreat and Julia is going to a friend’s house), tomorrow my plans include meeting with the electrician to discuss wiring the new generator, and Sunday, I want to do something I don’t do on most every Sunday; what that thing is, though, I don’t know!

1. You do your thing; I do mine and sometimes it involves me playing drums.

2. Having to be put in a financial situation that forces me to sell my cymbals–the tools of my trade– is what’s been on my mind on and off all day.

3. Remember when you had extra money in the bank, and enough savings where you could have your own “snare drum fund”?

4. Susan, drums, working out are three of my favorite obsessions 🙂 (I know, hard to believe, but I’m really starting to like exercising!)

5. During the last year my outlook has really gone into the tank.

6. Playing the drums with friends puts a smile on my face.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I’m looking forward to playing the drums at The Black Bull, tomorrow my plans include playing the drums at a Kiwanis picnic and playing the drums at a wedding, and Sunday, I want to play the drums in evening church!
