The times they are a-changin'
Without going into a great deal of detail here, I just wanted to let y'all know I may have the opportunity to make a career move here in the coming weeks. Any job change is stressful, and the prospect of going into an altogether different line of work is both unsettling and exciting at the same time. I appreciate your prayers that God will through His Spirit lead me to make the decision that will put me where He wants me right now, whether that's at my current place of employment or somewhere else. Many thanks in advance.

Oh, come on
That e-mail would have to wait until the first fall holy day to arrive. [*sigh*] Nothing to be done about it now--there are more important things afoot. I'll deal with it on Friday.

Very tired. Going to bed. Goodnight.

That must have been uncomfortable
In a September 10 story, the Associated Press reported Colombian authorities arrested a notorious drug trafficker, but it's what he had in his britches that grabbed my attention. "Soldiers captured one of the world's most wanted drug traffickers, Diego Montoya, today after they swarmed onto a farm and found him hiding in the bushes in his underwear."

Hahahaha!!!

Already out of bed
What do you know, when I don't work so late I get into bed at a somewhat more reasonable hour, and then get up earlier to boot! I'm not sure when I saw 8 a.m. on the clock except for the Sabbath and a handful of other days where I had places to go and things to do that required me to be up that early. Now I just need to make use of this time--I'm thinking a walk while it's still relatively cool out would be a good starting place.

Had a pretty nice weekend. My second sermonette was a bit on the short side, but I wasn't nearly so nervous as the first time around. Saturday evening, Matt and Devon and I drove down to St. Augustine for pizza and board/card games with Ashley and Teri, then yesterday Matt and I got in some games of Risk--I think I won only once. Oh well, it was fun anyway.

A bit of my non-work time over the last couple of weeks has been spent on pre-Feast preparations, including clothes shopping which I really don't care for but has to be done at some point. My "Feast envelope" is also ready to go. And the Feast is just a little more than two weeks away; I hope it's a great one. I'm rather eager to head north, to spend a week learning about God's plan and spending time with family and friends and to a large extent being away from the bad news.
