The Major’s Walk-A-Thon

Sky: Clear
Temperature: 67°F
Relative Humidity: 100%
Winds: Calm
Barometric Pressure: 29.94 Rising

My thoughts:

1.  This morning most of my walk occurred before sunrise. I walked from 7:17 AM to 7:42 AM. It was a basic 1.3-mile walk around my neighbourhood, but I did so counterclockwise rather than the normal clockwise. I like to take risks like that !  😉

2.  The Spring holidays are here. Tomorrow is Palm Sunday, and that leads in to Holy Week including Good Friday and Easter Sunday. I can tell that the holidays are here. A lot of my neighbours are on vacation now. There are a lot of empty parking spaces all around.

3.  I passed an adorable little black cat at the southern tip of my walk this morning that could have passed for a ‘Baby Boots’. Boots was my home buddy for 12½ years from 1995 to 2007. ‘Baby Boots’ looked at me with loving eyes. He just knew that I am a friend of felines.

4.  What an amazing music set I listened to on my iPod shuffle during my 25-minute walk:
– “Breathe You In” – Thousand Foot Krutch
– “Glorious” – Ever Stays Red
– “Nuisance” – John Reuben With Matt Thiessen
– “New Skeptic” – The Fold
– “Strong Tower” – Kutless
– “Live Like We’re Alive” – Nevertheless
– “Awake” – Seventh Day Slumber

5.  After the walk I ventured over to the former sanctuary of Life Pointe Church to help stuff thousands of Easter Eggs with candy in preparation of this MASSIVE event that’s gonna rock Homestead on Good Friday. After that I hung out with most of the prayer group that meets at the original church building every Saturday morning. We all did Lunch together at Loly’s Restaurant in the Old Dixie Center just up the road. It was a great time of fun, food, and fellowship.

Bedtime Stories

It’s Thursday night. It’s 8:30 PM. I can’t think of a better time than now to post my ‘Bedtime Stories’ for tonight – brought to you by Boston Market.

Today at Lunch time I took my car for a much-needed bubble bath at Busy Bee Car Wash up in Perrine. I’ve been going to that place for the past 4 cars and 19 years. They always do a good job cleaning it all up for me.

After that I went over to The Living Word Christian Bookstore in Cutler Bay. I spent a good half-hour there browsing around the whole store, and I bought a few items as well.

Lunch was next, and I ate at the Boston Market at the corner of Useless-One and Quail Roost Drive. They are very unorganized there as far as ordering, paying for, and receiving your food, but the utter chaos became a memory once I sunk in to that delicious food !

Well that’s how I spent my Lunch hour two-hours today.

Tomorrow on the blog I’ve got your ‘Friday Night Blogroll Review’. That’s where I ping some of my favourite blog entries of this past week.

Until then remember this:

Bedtime Stories

It’s just after 8:30 PM EDT on this wild and crazy Monday night, and I just got home from a full day of work (at the base) and even more work (at the church office) about an hour ago. I am so totally exhausted after this nearly 14-hour day away from home, but it was the funnest day I’ve enjoyed in recent memory !  I had an awesome time at both places of work.

It was fun hangin’ out with Travis, Paul, Jesse, Alex, and Anne (you need a blog too) at the church office this afternoon, and I now have a ton of new stuff that I need to set up on my computer here at home to get started with my new position as Life Pointe’s ‘Director Of Cool’ as Pastor Travis is tentatively referring to it, or as the ‘Director Of Life Pointe Connections’ as I am tentatively referring to it (until I come up with something even more catchier or at least relevant).

I’ll get it all ready and organized by this upcoming Saturday night. I’ll need to because I go to work and hit it hard on Sunday afternoon after I return home from the two services with everything that I need to do to get connected with everyone. I’m really looking forward to it all.

Well that’s what I’ve got for tonight as far as ‘Bedtime Stories’ is concerned. It’s my only blog entry for this Monday. I’ll be back on the blog tomorrow (Tuesday) after 4 PM with my most-anticipated ‘Tuesday Night Grab Bag O’ Thoughts’.

Have a safe, peaceful, and relaxing Monday night everyone, and until we blog again remember this:

Ace is the place with the helpful hardware man.

Bedtime Stories

In a postscript to my ‘Life Pointe Church Sunday Morning Tossed Salad’ I’ve got 4 other variations of what happened this morning at Life Pointe. Be sure to catch the following blogs from these fine Life Pointe bloggers:

  • Travis – He posted his ‘Sunday Wrap-Up’.
  • Phil – He posted his ‘Sunday Soup’.
  • Ritz – He posted his ‘Sunday Goosfraba’.
  • Anne – She posted her ‘Kids’ Life’ report.

A blogger can be defined as one who writes blogs, or one who reads blogs. You don’t need your own blog to be a blogger. If you are reading other peoples’ blogs then you are by definition a blogger. You are a blogger because you are reading this. Keep on blogging.

That’s ‘Bedtime Stories’ for this Sunday night. I’ll catch you on the flip side tomorrow (Monday) for some more blogging action. Until we meet again remember this:

Romans 12:1-2 (NLT, 2ND Ed.)
[1] And so, dear brothers and sisters, I plead with you to give your bodies to God because of all He has done for you. Let them be a living and holy sacrifice — the kind He will find acceptable. This is truly the way to worship Him.
[2] Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
