So who's gonna be your pastor, Isaac? Or is he just retiring from a secular job?

What the little cop guy said.  Nosy people want to know.  :demand:

We have a pastor already.  There was a transition period where the young man was the Pastor and our pastor was "Senior Founding Pastor" but I think most of the church has accepted the younger guy as the pastor now. 

I hear of some churches where the pastor goes until he dies, never lays the foundation for a younger, duly elected pastor to gradually take over, and when the elder pastor dies the church gets torn apart by a bunch of people, all of whom think they alone know what should be done.  I like the way this one happened much better.   :cool:

That is far better, usually, all around. 

Been there, done that on the other end of it when our pastor unexpectedly died.  (He was getting up in years, but he wasn't down sick or all that.)  And then the Hades and high water all happened over the next year.

It was 28 here and we have about 4-5 inches of snow.

I was a complete and total heathen and went to get my tattoo filled in. I'd had an outline on my left upper arm for almost a year now. Found a tattoo artist who I trusted and had beautiful work and got it colored in. It's gorgeous. It's various flowers. My favorites are the iris.

My car now has back brakes again. We didn't get to finish Brandon's car's brakes so it's still sitting at my workplace. My boss allows us to pull the cars in through a garage door into a very large room downstairs that is currently only being used for storage. It's super nice of him to do this.

Also got a new phone today. I left the iPhone world for the LG Optimus G. Super fast, awesome screen, loads more memory and much longer battery life.

Randomly posting nothingness so Cheesy won't have a conniption fit because of the lack of posts today. :cool: Just trust me on this one, you don't want me posting about my day/week. It's a good thing God is on the move. If I couldn't see Him working and doing really cool things in people's lives, I'd be really discouraged right now. As it is... well, I DO see Him doing His God-thing. :)

Missed like 18 sharing pages between the last one and now... Oh well... I am trying... LOL

So, hope everyone had a great Saturday and everyone has a wonderful Sunday!  :hi:

Tell Trey to show his nerdy mug around here once in a while.  I need SOMEONE who understands my jokes...
*yawn* I tend to stay clear of the general section, and especially the sharing threads....   But seems theres little else left now that some pruning has gone on haha
*shrug* maybe.  :teeth:

The snow was a lot more than predicted and yet here I am up to take B to his job that makes him drive all over the Tri-Cities area. Almost all churches in the area have canceled services or are on a snow delay. This is gonna be fun....

Happy Sunday! 

What?  It's a day off, right?  I'm not working, right?  Seems like a  holiday to me.  Happy Sunday to one and all.   :cool:

In other news, Friday was just as boring slow as I thought it would be, with only one furnace line running.  And it was running parts that didn't take much processing at all on my end.  Ronnie, the guy who takes over while I take a break, is usually only really happy to see me come back when it's hectic, but Friday he was happy to see me come back because half an hour of sitting on his thumbs was all he could take.  :P

And I hear they'll be running only one line all next week.  And they won't give me any other job to do while I'm waiting.  And they won't let me bring my computer to work to pass the time. 

Maybe I'll bring my bible and a notepad and start planning out sermons that I don't need right now, but may need someday.  Or maybe I'll bring my boombox and play DJ for that whole end of the factory, which doesn't usually have anyone else working there anyway, so nobody will care.

Wow. What a day!

Hit the floor running this morning. Was nearly late for practice, had practice, then I stepped back into the apartment to make myself a cup of coffee to take with me to Sunday school. Get in here and there were coffee grounds spread all over the counter and water puddles on the floor. Mom said the Keurig exploded. :o So coffee was out, I went to SS, then we had CHURCH! I mean WOWZERS! Bro
Webb from Milton was here and we forever more had some church! Didn't get out till after 1, and then we had a LOOOOONG staff meeting that he spoke at and showed a video. I held a sleeping Kira for the entire altar service, AND the duration of the staff meeting. Then we had a small meeting about the cake pop fundraiser, I have to bake FIVE red velvet cakes on Friday, and then I hitched a ride with Granny for lunch. I didn't get back to the apartment till 4:30, and I fixed the Keurig, that did NOT explode...mom just...never mind...it was a user-error. SMH. Changed into PJs and passed out on my bed for about an hour.

I've been up a while now...well awake...and I'm contemplating going to bed early.

This day was wide open fast forward, and I am tired! But it was a great day!
