Do you ever have to leave yourself reminders about things? I have to do it all the time. I call home from work to leave a message about something to do when I get home. I call work from home to do the same. I have lists all over the place just to make sure [...]

The Mother’s Curse
Posted in Just for Fun, Satchmo on June 27, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Have you ever heard of “The Mother’s Curse”? You know the one – “I hope you have a kid that acts just like you someday!” Well if your mother didn’t say it, I’m sure you have heard someone say it. Well let me tell you that I heard it growing up and I was scared. [...]

Ever bought a car, either a new car or a used one? What is one very important part of the experience? The test drive! You can’t really tell how a car will perform until you drive it. One thing to check especially on a used car is the alignment. You want to make sure everything [...]
Road Trip

I heard a commercial the other day that said, “You can’t start the journey if you don’t know the destination.” I think the commercial was for some financial company or something, but it got me thinking about how true the statement was. It really is more than just a catchy ad slogan; it really is [...]
The Olympics are Coming

Yes, it’s almost that time again. That time when every commercial on TV will proudly say that they are the “official sponsor of the US Olympic team” and every where you turn there will be the symbol of the Olympics. Personally I can’t wait. I don’t know what it is about these games that just [...]
Music to My Ears

Did you ever hear the expression “music calms the soul” or “music can calm the angry beast”? Well, I believe music can be one of the most powerful ministry tools we have. I know for me it absolutely is. Sometimes when I am trying to find the words to express what I am feeling or [...]
Cool Cat

Okay, I know everyone probably thinks they have the coolest pet, but I have to say that hands down I have the best and coolest cat around- at least in my opinion. Satchmo not only has the coolest name, after all any cat named after Louis Armstrong has to be cool right, but he has [...]
Nails and Love

In a recent devotional I read this sentence and it just jumped out at me. Nails didn’t hold God on the cross – Love did! Wow! How wonderful is that sentence. I mean how many times have we heard the story of the crucifixion? Probably hundreds. We know the story probably frontwards and backwards. We [...]

A few months ago I bought the coolest lights at Sams. They are battery powered LED lights that you attach with magnets to cabinets, walls, etc. They have a motion sensor that turns them on and off or they turn themselves off within an hour. They are the neatest things I have seen in a [...]
Peeps

I love peeps! Not the people kind, you know like “hanging with my peeps”. Although I do have to say I have some kicking peeps! I’m talking about those gooey, sugary, mounds of Easter goodness that you eat! You know what I’m talking about! They are shaped like chicks and bunnies. Those long loved staples [...]
Welcome to my world
Posted in Uncategorized on June 17, 2008 | 2 Comments »
Well here you are. You have now entered my world. Welcome and hold on tight. You are entering a world that is sometimes crazy, some self-diagnosed attention deficit disorder, a little sarcastic, a touch of melancholy every now and then, and a huge dose of love for friends, family and God. So I hope you enjoy [...]
