Tonight we went skating with Sydney and the girls, and I had such a good time. I'm really thinking about doing derby next season. Try-outs are in October, and that would give me plenty of time to get in better shape and learn some basics. I have been saying for almost a year that I need a hobby, something to do to meet new people and to have a good time, something out of the house and I think this would be good. Josette said that she would try out with me if I did it, and so I'd have someone to train with. I'm going to start going skating with Sydney once a week and hopefully I'll be able to get some nice skates sometime soon. (I think it may be a birthday present, but I'm not sure... we'll see.)
Work has been so crazy, it's making the summer disappear. I also have to register for school soon! I just found out that I could have been working towards my associates in teaching, which I would've loved to do, but now it's like if I do that it'll take even LONGER for me to have my associates.
I'm starting to get a little tired. I'm going to go lay down with the puppies!

I believe in Love
I'm doing much better than the last time I blogged. Kyle and I are talking about starting a lifeGroup at our house (which is affiliated with LifeChurch.tv) and I'm really excited about that. We went and visited the Fort Worth campus this past weekend and while it wasn't anything fantastic, I really feel like the messages are relevant to what Kyle and I are living right now. So, if you are looking for some kind of "church" that doesn't require you to get outta bed on Sunday morning, let me know.
Work is still super busy, and I'm working on some new music. I've started two new songs - one about a divorce that some friends of ours are going through, and one is a love song to Jesus. We will see how those turn out.
Sarah may be moving out of the state and that makes me a little sad. Honestly, it's not like we spend a lot of time together, so I'm not like torn up about it - but it's just the realization that we DON'T spend that much time together. Her living in another state wouldn't be THAT different than her living here now. It's exciting for her though. I suppose we're all going to move on eventually either way. Windy may end up in NY for her job in the next few years, Sydney will move up to Frisco (which, honestly, is Oklahoma, seriously..) We'll move down to Austin and make new friends, but it will never be the same as the people who I've known forEVER.
This turned into a lame entry. Jesus is doing good things, so I thank Him for that.
Hope you all are doing well.
