Wait
Sometimes I feel like a chicken with my head cut off. Running around everywhere doing stuff, but not really with my brain…and unfortunately, my brain is split up between three places. And when I say three places, I mean my three different computers…my PC at work, my G5 at home, and my MacBookPro. My two apple (and awesome) computers will sync with each other in regards to emails and contacts and such, but not with my work PC–and that’s where I spend the bulk of my day. So I’ll get an email about something and put it on my calendar at work, but not at home…all that to say that even though my plate is full and overflowing, I don’t feel burnt out. I’m just truly challenged to find and maintain balance in my life with physical fitness, the Lord, work, family, sleep, and all of that…
sometimes I achieve it, and sometimes I do not.—————————————————————–
Something that stood out to me today:
Psalm 37:34
Wait for the LORD
and keep his way.
—————————————————————–Alright, I’ve been thinking about some decisions–
1) I will keep my laptop open next to me at work so I can keep it current with calendar events.
2) I will continue to strive for balance in my life.
3) I will run more, as opposed to working out at the gym.
4) I will not let TV stand in the way or inhibit my quest for balance.
5) I will eat much less sweets.As far as the gym goes–I find that I get a good workout there, but that I need to run around the streets of Covina more often than work out at the gym. I can barely run a mile right now, and that is just sad. I can spend half an hour on one of those elliptical machines, but who cares about that? I need to run. Plus, if I run, then at least I will get ready at home, and Christy really prefers I do that instead of just leaving for the day at 5:30 in the morning–and I’ll see my kids in the morning if I’m getting ready at home. So, I’ll still go to the gym, just less often.
Lost was great. I like Desmond, and his backstory was intruiging.
Also-San Diego was great. It was fabulous to be there again. I think we are going to enjoy the next 7 or 8 Tuesdays very much!

Balance is good…Lost is Great…and I totally agree about Tuesdays! Thanks man!
I’m glad you’re continuing to work on balance…it’s a never-ending feat!! And LOST WAS great last night! How sad…I must’ve googled at least 10 things yesterday, and didn’t even notice until I saw it on your blog!! HaHa!!
I’m so sorry I missed you on Tuesday. Still have laryngitis, but I had to go by the church on Tuesday to drop something off to Donnie. Can’t wait to be there next week!
ummmm why don’t you keep your calendar public only to yourself on your .mac account and update through the web?
I agree, balance is a good thing. But it’s much easier said than done. I can never rely on a single source, I therefore have 4 sources. Remembering to look at each source at least once a day is my primary problem. It’s by the grace of God that I make through each day and if I forget something – whoops!!!! If it were not for the Holy Spirit I’m sure I’d forget the truly important things. Keep striving for that balance and let me know when you’re able to keep it for longer than a minute!
