Happy Birthday and Happy Thanksgiving

On my birthday, I had the second half of my root canal done and then went to church to work and do CBC.  I led the songs on my guitar.  A couple of people said I did a really good job.
 

Then we headed to Marlton for Darryl's work.  At the hotel the fire alarm went off, so we ended up outside waiting for the fire dept. to come and check things out.   When they determined it was safe, they let us back in the lobby, which I was happy about because I had bare feet.






Then we drove to West Virginia in the snow.  Saw 7 accidents.  Not a fun drive at all.  


We had a nice Thanksgiving dinner with Bonnie and David, Scott and Flo, and Mom and Dad.  I think I need to stay away from buffets; I always eat too much.  I get this weird mentality that says I need to eat my money's worth.  That's a bad way to go!!

Sometimes I feel like my life is surreal.  Sometimes I feel like I'm just going through the motions until I we can get off the planet and go home to be with the Lord.  Sometimes I feel like this is all just a waiting game, trying to play by the rules until we graduate to our perfect place, to be with our perfect Savior.  All of this here on this planet is just weird, strange, awful, painful, depressing and hurtful; sprinkled with happy moments that we cling to to get us through the days.  What is real?  I don't know.  This life of mine is so temporary, so fleeting.   I know there are friends and family who aren't saved yet, and it's only because of them that I am OK with waiting longer for the rapture.  I know God has to get all who belong to Him.  I don't know how long that will take.  But this world is decaying faster and faster with it's moral decline.

So, on a semi-brighter note, I got a rough recording of my song done.  Darryl and I are currently working on a newer version with a male vocal and harmony.  I'm really excited to get that done, and it's coming along nicely.  I will post that when it's done.
