Random Thoughts on a Friday Morning

July 16, 2010 by Gilbert Leave a Comment

  • Wow haven’t done a random thoughts post in a long time.
  • Biggest thing on my mind right now is our housing situation.
  • At noon we’re supposed to sign a contract with the people that want to rent our house here in Chambersburg and then at 6pm we’re supposed to finalize the details for the house we put a contract on in Harrisburg.
  • It’s been quite the roller-coaster week in relation to all this…even now I won’t believe it until all the paperwork is done.
  • If however things go as we hope, then we can actually start moving into our new place starting tonight!
  • The place we found in Harrisburg will be a huge sacrifice as compared to what we’re used to but it has some nice features that will help lessen the “pain”…can you say…in-ground swimming pool!
  • This week Chad officially started on staff and we were able to lay-out a good game plan for what the rest of this summer will look like as we prepare for launch.
  • We visited Antrim Brethren in Christ last Sunday.  I’ll post my thoughts at some point in the near future.
  • We were on the road 22 of the 30 days in June and my body suffered because of all the eating out.  I put on 12 pounds so I’ve been working to lose them for not only health reasons but also to just have the necessary energy I need as we get ready to launch.
  • Anyone else as disappointed in Lebron as I was?  Not mad that he chose Miami…that’s what free agency is all about.  Just disappointed in how he went about doing it.
  • Can’t believe it took this long for them to get the oil spill under control.  Not 100% sure it’s totally solved yet but at least it’s better than it was.
  • Been reading through the Gospels this month…amazing that after now literally dozens of times having read them devotionally in the nearly 17 years I’ve been a follower of Christ how each time you pick up something new.
  • Stopped by CFCOG yesterday to drop some stuff off.  Didn’t even think about it, but I just happened to stop by when they were having staff meeting.  So awesome to get to see everyone.
  • People of Chambersburg…listen up…having traveled all over the country, I’ve eaten at Sonic plenty of times.  It’s not THAT good to justify sitting in line for 45+ minutes.  Give it a couple of weeks and it will be just like any other Sonic in the country…drive-up, get served right away and then drive away with your 1/2 decent order.
  • I find it funny that many of my Facebook friends are outraged that their phone number can now be found on Facebook and are urging everyone to hide it in their privacy settings.  Ummm hello, I went out to get the mail today and what did I happen to receive…the 2010 phone book…with people’s phone numbers in it.  Ah the irony.
  • Just for fun last night I decided to get out my Tiger Woods golf game for the Wii and play at St. Andrews since that’s where the 2010 British Open is being played.  I shot a 61…umm think I shouldn’t have played off the ladies tees.  :)
  • Just read the following.   Need + Vision= Inspiration.   Need – Vision= Desperation.
  • Alright gotta go…our noon appointment should soon be arriving…appreciate your prayers!
