Tuesday Catch-up

December 16, 2008 by Gilbert Leave a Comment

  • Just finished writing the vision message I’ll be delivering on the 28th of the month.
  • Man am I pumped…almost makes me forget that there is snow on the ground.
  • I had to write today because yesterday I was spent and had no energy or creativity.
  • Sunday in addition to preaching the 2 Experiences, I returned at a little after 4pm to start working on a project with a crew of guys and 4 of us never left until 1:30am.
  • I’ve been fighting off a bug, but after all that, yesterday my body couldn’t take it anymore.
  • Just realized today that between 12/21-12/29 I will be preaching  4 different messages a total of 7 times.
  • Whew that tires me out just thinking about it.
  • In total we had over $9200 come in for the Contagious Christmas Challenge!
  • I bought the gift cards on Friday…what an adventure.
  • Imagine walking into a store and asking them to help you buy a few thousand dollars worth of gift cards in small amounts.
  • The receipts are a few feet long from each store.
  • I went into Circuit City to buy a $50 card and the girl asked if I wanted a bag for it.  I said, “As strange as it may sound, yes because I’m buying $9000 worth of gift cards today and don’t want to lose it”.
  • She looked at me like yeah right, you’re exaggerating…I said “No really I am”.  To which she just shook her head and mumbled, “mmm hmmm”.
  • I felt bad at Toys R Us because I got in the line of a cashier that only had 1 functional hand.  Imagine how long that took him to validate over 30 cards.
  • At least this time at the mall I didn’t almost get in a fight with anyone.
  • Well got more work to do…hope everyone is having a great week so far and your able to stay off the roads.
