On the 12th service of Christmas my video director said to me…
If you happened to be anywhere within a parsec of our church this Christmas you probably noticed that we performed a little ditty called “Imagine Christmas.”
whoa!
A trapeze artist from California. Jugglers, tumblers, tap dancers, ballerinas, “stomp-dancers,” unicyclists…. all to a very cool version of “On the First Day of Christmas.” And that was just [...]
Tell me, who cut your hair?
So, here I am at the library again. Coming here helps me to “officially” start each job hunting day, and I come here so I can get on task and stay on task and have a fruitful, productive job searching day.
That’s the theory…
Today I chose one of my favorite spots, near the front of the [...]
The Cliffs of Insanity…. or “how’s the job search going?”
Recently, a couple of people here and there have asked how the job hunting is going–which I deeply appreciate, by the way! I thought that I would answer with an update via the following entry from my personal journal kept on my laptop:

In his family, Peanut was always there. He was there for my friend and his wife during their early “pre-children” days: you could say that he was their parenting [...]
On second thought, I’d rather not….
This Sunday I went down to Peyton’s Place (home of the Colts, that is), to be with my sister and brother in law while their son had open heart surgery. Their son is 8.
In summary, God really blessed! The surgery went very well. But other great things happened along the way. My nephew’s surgery clearly [...]
Back in Uncle Andrew’s Study
In a previous article (Wood between the Worlds) I updated you all on my journey towards my next job. How about another update?
The coolest thing has happened! Suddenly I found myself no longer in “the wood between the worlds!” I am currently working a contract job in the city, doing pretty much what I have [...]
The Wood Between the Worlds
Occasionally people ask how goes the unemployment gig? Well, how about a little update.
When this adventure was launched I felt rather exhilarated (see the “Altoids” article for details). But I knew that things would settle down and sure enough, they have. Now we play the waiting game, constructive waiting I hope (making a good job [...]
