I'm on the hunt. Job hunt that is. I don't have many in sight right now, but I am waiting much like this guy is for the right game to come along! Please remember me in your prayers as the merger of my company seems to be heading in a bad, bad direction. It looks like a lot of people are gonna lose their jobs, and so many changes are happening that people are ready to walk. Salary structures are set to change meaning i would lose about 10, 000 to 16, 000 dollars a year. Ouch! Well here I go. I wanna give my wife and child the best I can. Not so much money, as I would like to have weekends to spend with them!

So, one of our gifts from the wedding was this fantastically fun and simple game called Boggle! We played this as a family back in the days of my youth. Mom was good and taught her son to be even better. When the student overcame the teacher, her work was considered done. She patted me on the back gave me a cookie and sent her chubby son out into the world to wreak havoc in the Boggle world. Well Kim wanted so badly to play and kick my rear! I kept telling her I don't ever remember losing so it would definitely be a challenge for her. Well about seven or eight games into the night Kim told me it was time for me to get outta her face. Final score: ZERO wins for Kim and two ties. I'm sorry if it comes off as bragging! I wasn't gonna say anything but when I beat her with words like Kitten, and meow(I hate cats), that is just too funny! That would be like Kim beating me in a Home run Derby and I was allowed to use a tee from the outfield.

go to lyrics.com and look up Mercy Me

I Can Only Imagine(as sung by Mercy Me)
I can only imagine What it will be like When I walk By your side I can only imagine What my eyes will see When your face Is before me I can only imagine [Chorus:]Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all I can only imagine I can only imagine When that day comes And I find myself Standing in the Son I can only imagine When all I will do Is forever Forever worship You I can only imagine[Chorus]I can only imagine [x2]I can only imagineWhen all I will do Is forever, forever worship you
(copied from lyrics.com)
Wow!!!! such a powerful song that I think I cry every time I listen to it! Being a parent I know how it must be for Him to love us even when we do stupid things. I look at Mikayla and just wonder why in the world did she just do that? I just told her not to do it and of course she says I don't know, or I'm sorry. Forgiveness and showing love while you punish is such a hard thing but man do i love that little girl. I can't pretend to understand it from His perspective when He sees us do stupid things even though He tells us what to do and not to do many times over in His wonderful book given to us to live by. I can tell you this He will probably enjoy quite the chuckle if I do a dance and that makes me just well up inside and I can't fight the tears of joy knowing that I will be in his presence and I really don't know what I will be able to do, but I can't wait to worship forever and that's all I will have to do.
Any of my friends or family who do read this and don't know if you will be able to share this joy please tell me. I don't have all the answers but I sure can get them, because He does have all the answers. You are all in my prayers. I love and miss all my friends past and present. Please pray for me, I need to be in a new work environment and I'm not sure how to get myself there. I'm trying to put prayer before planning, because I at least know I need to be where God needs me to be. Thanks to all of you for playing a part in my life.
LOVE YOU ALL!!!
