I got glasses the other day...

So, last week I mentioned that I've been getting headaches lately. So I went to the eye doctor and it turns out, I need glasses.

The glasses I ordered take 7-9 days to get here, so I went and got a cheap pair at one of those glasses-in-an-hour places. Turns out, it takes a while to get used to wearing glasses. I've been getting headaches while I adjust.

Super.

We lost a good one yesterday...

A good friend died yesterday. Carl was a long time leader at Celebrate Recovery, and was probably the best display of a servant I have ever seen. Not only did Carl serve but he did so gladly without ever wanting attention.

I'm grieving today. I haven't really lost that many people. When my Grandpa died I was a mess for weeks. Losing Carl is right up there. He brought joy wherever he went.

Carl impacted literally thousands of lives. You can't ask for more than that. He made a difference for Christ, and I know that he's with Him now.

When I think of Carl, I think of James 4:10, "Humble yourselves before the Lord, and He will lift you up."

That's Carl. Humble servant that never wanted attention, that everyone knew, and everyone loved.

He will be missed.

I'm a little panicked...

So, tomorrow I will have both of my daughters by myself for most of the day. Now I'm not one of those dads that doesn't spend time with his kids. I do. Tons. But usually I have ONE of them by myself, not both of them.

I can handle one. Maggie is super easy. Chloe is super easy. One on one we have a great time together. If I just have Maggie I can do anything. Movies, Disneyland, park, whatever. If I have Chloe we can do most of that stuff too, well, not a movie, but you get the point.

Usually if I have the two of them together I just stay home with them. But tomorrow is supposed to be all day.

I guess if it rains I'd HAVE to stay home.

Come on rain.

A pain in the...

Head. So, I've been having headaches for like the last week now. I hate it. On Monday it got so bad I threw up. Yummy. I wake up and think the headache is gone, but no, it comes back.

Next Monday I'm going to the eye doctor to see if I need to start wearing glasses again. I wore glasses for most of my life. I got my first pair when I was 2 years old.

If I need them again, I'm going to get the Transition lenses. They look cool. They get dark like sunglasses outside and go back to normal inside. That way I only need one pair of glasses.

That's enough staring at the computer now.

Wow, I've been away a while...

Sorry I've been gone so long. The good news is, I'm back and refreshed. The bad news is, I feel sort of stuck with my blog.

I really want to do some of the cool things other people have done, but I really don't know how. It makes me feel very insecure that I can't figure this thing out.

If anyone can give me tips on how to improve the look and feel, please feel free to comment.

Thanks
