Goings on:
Been working on our team strategy lately. It's been nice finally to synthesize things that have been in my head for years.
Rereading Jordan's Wheel of Time series at nights. Sometimes it feels like I'm breaking the rules by not reading more serious stuff, but I like brain candy too much to care.
Have fully made the transition to black coffee. I still like a good latte, but for the daily grind (pun intended), it's black and strong.
Been working in the garden a lot. Weeds got out of control while I was recovering from wisdom teeth surgery. Will be a ton of produce if I can keep it going.
Finally made first batch of deer jerkey. It's got good flavor, but I dried it slightly too long. The thicker pieces are pretty good.
Ana stood by herself for a long time last night at VBS and clapped and "danced." She is due to walk soon, I think. Megan got the pool up to snuff, so Ana has been swimming and likes it.
Been helping with VBS. Your guess is as good as mine.
Apparently it's a good summer for snakes. We caught a four foot rat snake at the house--snooping for bird nests. Saw a three foot black racer jet accross the driveway the other day.
Planning to try to build a bunkbed for Nathan and Jenny. Should be fun.
Registered for the Christian Scholars Conference at Lipscomb this year. Should be interesting. Will not get to attend World Convention (Stone-Campbell unity thing). What's up with a $200 dollar registration fee anyway?
