And what a Sunday it was...lol

Wow. Amazing Sunday...not sure where to begin, but here goes...

My lower back was still sore somewhat this morning (slight injury in the gym Thurs morning; didn't hit me until Friday morning at 4am--and boy did it hurt). Got up about 5:30am, got ready slowly, and hit the road to pick up Chris at his house at 6:30 to go sing. Met Brian at the rideshare about 7:15 and hit I-95 towards Townsend.

Bill called while we were stopped for a biscuit in Richmond Hill and said the bus broke down in Ludowici; come get him. We got there, finished loading the equipment into the TV station van that his wife Virginia brought. She took Brian's truck back to Jesup; we went to the church and set up. We sang for about an hour (we were the service beginning at 11am) and then ate. We loaded up, headed back to Jesup and got Brian's truck and came home. I dropped Chris off a little before 5pm and got back to my house in about 10 min. After checking my email, I headed to church for the 6pm service and then stayed for choir practice.

I headed home...but stopped by Pojo's at Burkhalter & Hwy 80 for a little gas ($25 worth...only about 6 gallons...bleh). When I started to leave, there was NO response from my car. No lights, no nothing. No clicking from the battery. It was DEAD. I was going to get my jumper cables, but my trunk has no key hole, only the keyless remote. A gentleman and his wife stopped by in an F-150 with heavy-duty cables; no dice. I called Nancy. She brought her car and her cables. It took TWO sets of cables to get my car to fire. TWO sets. Incredible. Never seen that before.

I thanked everyone profusely (a little crowd had gathered to watch this sight) and Nancy & I headed to Wal-Mart. My car limped along. We went in, found a battery, checked out, and then attempted to put the thing in. We had to nearly take creation apart to get the old battery out and the new one in. lol I think we got everything put back. If not, watch out for flying parts/pieces if you're following me on the road.

We finally got back here to the house about 11:20 p.m. Quite a long ordeal, but definitely memorable. :-) And, I got a new battery out of the deal.

That was my Sunday. How was yours? ;-)

Act right / Christmas

Another great Sunday. :-) Good service this morning, especially the reminder to live your life so that people would know you are a Christian, and to get involved to make your church the best it can be for God's service. Paul spoke from Matt. 16 beginning at verse 15.

Christmas break plans are in: looks like a trip to Atlanta is in order with Nancy & the parents. We're going to see artifacts from Tut's tomb, the terracotta soldiers, and take in a Falcons game. :-) Should be a nice 'staycation' during the Christmas break.

Sure was nice to get a much-needed nap this afternoon, too. :-) Since choir practice has been moved to after church, I'm not sure what to do with myself during the afternoon. lol

Wild week

It's been a wild week around here. Out on Monday, four-day work week, football game moved to Thursday night just in case Tropical Storm Hanna came in, working late just about every night, had school Friday anyway, worked in my room today. Whew.

I did get about 11 hours sleep last night. But today was definitely positive with me getting lots of stuff done. I'm almost caught up. Just trying to take stock of everything, make sure things are done.

Short week next week, too, with parent conferences, day out Friday, but football game--our home opener--Friday night.

Tired. Full. Good. :-)
