Sept. 11
I was going to post the new professional pics of the kids, but Blogger is being uncooperative.
Oh, and HOW BOUT THEM COWBOYS? (The offense, anyway.)
Just got my days for the Feast confirmed. Since I'm a temp I will not be getting paid, but hey, c'est la vie. I think my folks are gonna come over to see Nyla receive the blessing of the little children. I should probably inform them that our services are a wee bit different than what they're accustomed to. They'll probably think that services are letting out right after the sermonette and song. Maybe I'll have a little fun and not tell them that sermons are in the 1-hour-plus range. Yeah, that sounds like a plan. Ain't I a stinker?
I was going to post some of my reflections on this day of remembrance, but I think I'll save that for a later time.

I don't like firewalls
I guess I'm going to have to make a decision pretty soon - either go by my PC at school more often, or switch over to Wordpress. I apologize to all one of you who hangs on my every written word. I will do better.
I've recently begun listening to and reading Dave Ramsey's material. He dispenses financial information and is a firm believer in the proverb that states "the borrower is servant to the lender". He absolutely detests debt of any kind. I brought his book "Total Money Makeover" to give to my brother Monday (he was up for the FSU game); lo and behold, lil bro had a set of Dave's Financial Peace CDs. Great minds, eh? I'm going to try to implement Dave's ideas to get out of debt and gain control of our finances. So, if we turn down any invitations to hit a restaurant in the near future, don't be offended. It's me, not you. *floating the idea of a weekly church potluck*
And FSU did it to me again. If they had simply rolled over and played dead, I could've gone to bed at a reasonable hour and not been struggling so hard at work Tuesday. But no, they had to go and make the game semi-close, FORCING me to watch until the bitter, bitter end.
I just found out my oldest son weighs 254 lbs. I think piggy-back rides are now out of the question.
