Fresh Life Billings



Praying this morning for the launch of Fresh Life Billings. People that I care for that lived/live here in Kalispell, in Billings to set up and reach out to people. People that I care for that live in Billings - that they will venture into Billings West High to 'see what it is all about'. And then praying that they will learn that it is all about them and their relationship with Jesus.

This is the day that the Lord has made - let us rejoice and be glad in it ~

Saturday Night Fights...at the McDonalds



There was a time that Saturday was fight night at the McDonald house. It was the time when much food was made (usually Gordy's goulash), snacks, soda and games or movies for the kids.

Today, I called to do the auto pay on the phone for our DISH network and one of the first prompts was 'press 1' for the Paquiao vs Marquez fight for tonight....for $60. Yes, I pressed 1. So it was going to be Gordy and I and I invited Jesse and Joe.

Then Gordy got some calls that some men are ill tonight and he was needed at church. That meant that Jesse went to drug test, and Joe is working until 10.

So here I sit - watching $60 of boxing, by myself, while Kimmie is in the other room watching the premiere of the latest Narnia movie on HBO. Yes, me and a small bowl of chips and salsa and a Coca-Cola...Good times, good times.

To test the memory

I was reading my son's blogs. They are so talented and diverse. Then I thought, what about my long lost abandoned blog that I started, semi-updated...what does that look like anyway?

And the big test to my memory...will I remember my log in and password?!

It worked, can't believe I remembered it.

When it comes to writing, for me, the funny thing is that I write least when I have the most to say. But I am cautious to write...as I don't know if the next day, I will regret pondering some work issue, political issue, social issue, religious issue etc.

So - tonight I will ponder some things that I have been thinking about and maybe tomorrow I will post.

There are so many life 'oxy moron' situations playing out right now, it's crazy.
