Sometimes You Just Need This
This song has some definite sentimental value. It was the first thing I taught both at MLCS and at Midway…
It also has a timeless message and is pretty much straight-up scripture. Word. It doesn’t get much better than that…I’m going to read this passage again today…cause with gas prices at freakin $4.39 gallon, I’m stressin’ out.
I never want to drive ANYWHERE ever again. Oh dang…but I have to…and don’t we all?That said–praise the Lord I work 10 feet from my house, and Christy may have just found a job that is about 1.5 miles from our house…
We still drive to San Diego…so that’s the only time we’ll really feel the burn. OUCH.

You know, saying how much gas is out there makes it more desirable for Derek to stay in NC to go to seminary!! It’s bad enough at $3.86/gallon, but that’s about $.50/gallon cheaper than you! Why is California so freaking expensive????
Nice song. And yes, gas is hurting us all. I’m excited because I just found a carpool partner. She also lives in CV and only works two exits away from me. Woohoo! I’ve figured out that it costs me about $12 a day to drive to/from work. Ugh. Gas is $4.21 at CostCo, by the way. And I totally wish I worked close to home. You are definitely blessed there.
California is expensive because of extra taxes and fees that our state requires of consumers as well as producers of the fuel. It’s retarded. I hate taxes.
Oh man! I miss choral music and especially with the two of you and Ms. Leanne too! Most of all I”m missing fellowship with my brothers and sisters in Christ. I like the song and yes I agree with you and gas prices. Let’s also add groceries to that cost of living. Went to the store yesterday and can’t believe how high thing are getting. Guess I better get working on that vegetable garden and buy a farm to have a cow because Evan drinks nearly 4 gallons of milk per week; well, we help a little. Milk is like white gold these days. I guess it’s good he drinks milk and not too much soda. Or, “so-dah” if you’re from New England.
I think we’re all going to have to “go green” out of necessity.
Sure, it’s tough to switch loyalties between the American and British versions, and in general, I think the American one is better. But there are some seriously classic-ly (did I just make up my own word?) awkward moments in the British version. Like when David Brent shows off his dance moves at the company party, or when he hosts an office jam session during a corporate HR training day… Good stuff.
