Lazy day and a CD player

Happy moments, praise God.

Difficult moments, seek God.

Quiet moments, worship God.

Painful moments, trust God.

He is, who He is. Today, I really struggled getting around. Once I finally did, I finished my BSF for the week, and then started to learn about my 35mm SLR camera that my mom's friend let me borrow for this class. I just got the owners manual out, and started playing with things; settings, dials, and things of that nature. It's interesting not using a digital camera. Now knowing what the picture is going to look like until you develop the film is kind of exiting. I know that the first roll of film is most likely going to be fairly rough around the edges until I can get an idea for what kinds of pictures this thing will take. So, when I got done reading up on the camera, I headed over to my brothers house. Travis put in a CD player for my mom that I got her for Christmas.
She LOVED it. Also, it is a CD player with a USB attachment. So, you can plug in a flash drive directly into it. It is very cool because my mom loves listening to books on tape/CD and you can download them from web-sites. She will be able to download a book she wants to listen to right to her flash drive, then plug it into her CD player and BAM. She really liked that idea. I'm happy that she is so happy. Dave church was not on tonight because Dave's house did not have any water. He told me that his well was somehow messed up. I hope it can be fixed very inexpensively Dave. May God continue to bless you my friend!

Today started out with me going to the Central Branch YMCA (located downtown, having a "winter break childcare service"). When I showed up there was only 5 kids, one of which left with the leader. Well, then it shrank down to 2 kids and myself pretty quick, then it was just me and this cutie pictured above. I had to come up with something fun to do quickly, ya know, a fun activity that didn't suck. So, I thought up, "SILLY SNOWMEN!!" She loved it, and I have to admit, it was pretty fun. Go me.

After that got over, I dropped off a car CD player, ya see, I got my mom this really nice one, but accidently purchased two by accident, so instead of shipping the other one back, I sold it to one of my friends, because I am a good sales men, and my buddy was looking for one. THEN, I went to a Bro's Night out at my friends house (fellow YL leaders). It was a good time. The end of the day/evening landed me at Nicky's house. Ya see, my best friend (Jared) got his little brother (Nicky) a PS2, with a bunch of awesome PS1 and PS2 titles, because Nicky has wanted to start a sweet collection. Well, we found this classic called League of Pain, and it is an awesome futuristic sports game, and we found we can dominate at. It is so sweet, and a serioius bonding experience.Nicky also had a friend over, so I got to meet him, and merge my way into another needing life. It is sweet how God opens doors into people's lives. I love watching it play out in my own life.

I give Him all the glory, and am very thankful for my life.
