According to Gardening in the Dakotas, April 15th is planting day for beets, carrots, radishes, and onion sets.
We're going to be a few days behind this year.
To the Prairie and Beyond!
"In the central portion of the great North American Continent there lies an arid and repulsive desert, which for many a long year served as a barrier against the advance of civilization. From the Sierra Nevada to Nebraska, and from the Yellowstone River in the north to the Colorado upon the south, is a region of desolation and silence." - Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, A Study in Scarlet

Updates have been rolled out for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's National Stormwater Calculator (SWC), including a Low Impact Development (LID) cost estimation module and mobile web application version that can be used on both mobile devices and desktop computers.
A Safe and Sustainable Water Resources Research Program webinar on January 31 introduced these new features and demonstrated example applications. The presentation, by U.S. EPA Office of Research and Development (ORD) landscape architect Jason Bernagros, will be made available as a recording, and the next free webinar in the series is scheduled for February 28, 2018 on "Village Blue Project: Real-Time Water Quality Monitoring in the Baltimore Harbor."
EPA developed the SWC to help support local, state, and national stormwater management objectives and regulatory efforts to reduce runoff through infiltration and retention using green infrastructure practices as low impact development controls. It is designed to be used by anyone interested in reducing runoff from a property, including landscape architects, urban planners, developers, and homeowners.

Each pack consists of 10 cards, each containing 2 test areas, that incorporate patented DrinkSafe technology that reacts with a visible color change if a test area come in contact with a drink spiked with major date rape drugs like GHB and Ketamine.
Date Rape Drug Detector is an aid in attempting to identify the presence of illicit drugs in beverages. A positive test result indicates the probability of the presence of an illegal drug. However, there are occasions when the test will show a false reading. For example, any blue colored beverage or liquor can show a false reading when applied to the Date Rape Detector.
Great care should be taken when a test is positive. As with any laboratory test, definitive decisions should not be based on any single result method. A positive result does not mean that the drink in question has the illicit drugs, but only that there is something detected that should not be present. A Date Rape Drug Detector positive reading should never be used as the sole basis for determining the existence of illegal drugs. Upon a positive reading, do not consume the beverage.
The result of the Date Rape Drug Detector is for personal use, information purposed only. Seller makes no representations as to the lawfulness or other consequences of the disclosure of the test results, or as to the reliance upon the results, prior to making use of the test.
Seller warrants that Date Rape Drug Detector is free form defects in material and workmanship under normal use in strict accordance with the direction for use. This warranty is expressly in lieu of all other warranties expressed or implied including the warranties of merchantability and fitness for a particular use and of all other obligations or liabilities on seller's part. Seller neither assumes, nor authorizes any other person to assumes for it any other liability in connection with the sale of this product, and disclaims all other warranties and liability. No warranty of any kind shall apply to this product, and disclaims all other warranties and liability. No warranty of any kind shall apply to any Date Rape Drug Detector which has been subject to negligence, alteration, abuse, or misuse, except for rights set forth herein. Purchase of the Date Rape Drug Detector constitutes an agreement that no claim shall be made for damages, including but not limited to compensatory and exemplary dames, whether or not occasioned by seller's fault.

That is correct! Crazy, huh?
Thank you very much for your business! I have 19 years experience as a mortgage loan officer all with nbkc bank. If it can be done, I'll find a way to make it happen! Truly a pleasure working with you!
I have been able to waive the escrow requirement for a VA loan but typically it requires a pretty substantial down payment that we normally don't see with VA loans...
Please PM me your contact info and I will confirm we received your application. Thank you!
Sorry to hear you didn't receive the customer service expected at NBKC Bank. I am known for my follow up and would love to help. I'm on vacation this week, but can connect you with another loan officer I helped mentor who has A+ customer service skills as well. PM me if you would like her info. Amy
I am and often work in both states. nbkc bank is a nationwide lender, and offers mortgage financing in all 50 states. Let me know if I can be of help! Amy 913-253-0190 firstname.lastname@example.com
Thanks so much for your business! Consider me on standby for your next assignment and home purchase. I lend in all 50 states and look forward to working with you again in the future. 🙂 Enjoy your new home and thanks again for your business!
We handle all 50 states and I do a lot of business in OH! Per the VA, "if you paid a funding fee at closing ..... and your VA compensation award provides an effective rating date that is prior to your loan closing date, then you may be eligible for a funding fee refund." Not sure the timing would work for you? Depends on when you close and how far into the process you are... Let me know if I can be of any more help! Amy
Assuming you sell your current home financed by VA prior to buying the new home, automatically your entitlement can be fully reinstated. I have asked for clarification what happens if using what is called 2nd tier entitlement; meaning obtaining a 2nd VA loan before selling a home currently financed with VA. Standby for updates as they are rolled out! Lots of questions still at this point!
That is correct. For VA loans closing after Jan 1, 2020, you no longer have to put down 25% of the difference between the purchase price and $484,350 county limit (some high cost areas currently have higher county limits). For a $650K purchase price, you could purchase with NO money down!
Released on August 9th was the first official roll out from VA regarding the removal of loan limits for loans closing after Jan 1, 2020. For those interested: https://www.benefits.va.gov/homeloans/documents/circulars/26_19_23.pdf Note the section regarding the cost of the VA funding fee which is going up. Also the cost will be the same for Regular Military, Reserves, and National Guard. Previously Regular Military paid a lower Funding Fee. Purchases with NO money down have a 2.3% Funding Fee for 1st time users and 3.6% for subsequent users. Purchases with 5% but less than 10% down pay a 1.65% Funding Fee, and with 10% or more down pay 1.4% for a 1st time OR subsequent user. Interest Rate Reduction Refinance Loans (IRRRL) are remaining at .50%.
Quick correction to Jon's post. VA is required to use the single family limit even for multi-unit properties. This means the 100% financing cap with VA is $484,350 in Cook County. You can borrow more than $484,350, but are required to put down 25% of the difference between the purchase price and $484,350 limit. These are the current rules, but as Jon noted, it is expected to change in 2020. Let me know if there is anything else I can do to help! Amy nbkc bank
Definitely doable depending on the overall credit profile of the loan and projected new purchase price. PM me to start the pre-approval process. Look forward to helping out! Amy nbck bank
Where are you looking to buy? I lend in all 50 states. My husband is retired A/F and flies for Delta. Can't count the # of pilots I have helped in your exact situation. My team understands how pilots! I can give you an idea where you stand without running credit. Formal underwriting pre-approval will require a hard credit pull. Let me know if I can be of help! Amy NBKC Bank
We are still waiting for VA's official roll out...We are in hurry up and wait mode with the VA..

I've been using this eyeliner pencil for years and am so surprised that I never wrote a review for it. I use this underneath my eyes. This is a very soft pencil in a pale brown shade that is easy to smudge. I line about half way under my eyes, smudge lightly with a Q-tip and then add a light shade of brown eyeshadow with an eyeliner brush to set the color. I dab some mascara on my lower lashes and my eyes, which are medium-small, look much larger with this amount of color. It looks very natural. I have bought this pencil numerous times - it is very reasonably priced and I will continue to repurchase because the color is perfect and other than Giorgio Armani 's eyeliner pencil (which is 2 1/2 times the price and the color I use is often out of stock) all other eyeliner pencils give too dark and harsh a line of color and are difficult, if not impossible to smudge.

|Is God the Friend of Sinners?
|Luke 7:31-35 (Part of the Miscellaneous series).
|Some take it for granted that you will have another chance to get saved. In order to be saved you must first be convicted of your sin. Do you believe that God is a friend of sinners? God will judge of sin. There is a place that was created that has the opposite of joy and peace where God will not be. It was not created for you but for Satan and his angels. If you deny Jesus Christ you will surely be in the horrible place called Hell. Just because you attend a church or are a member of one doesn't mean that you are born again. Being born again is not about who you're kin to or what someone says. Salvation can not be manufactured under your own will. It doesn't matter where you've been or what you've done, you can still be born again. Some treat salvation as something that you can pick up and lay down only when you need it. Today is the day of salvation. When the Spirit of God moves, that is the time to be born again because only God controls conviction. Repeating a prayer doesn't save a person if the conviction of sin is not there with the drawing from Jesus Christ. One can't save ones self. Just because you read the bible or have a family that attends church or just because you've been baptized doesn't mean that you've been born again. You can't go through your life denying God and then claim Him in the end of your life. God gave us all the ability to make a choice. When God calls you, you WILL know and when He calls, that is the only time, chance that you will have to accept His calling. He only promised to call you one time. Conviction is Devine. When you really get under conviction you won't care what's around you if you really want to be saved.
|Preached by Tommy Boring on May 10, 2015 (Sunday Morning).
|He Still Is!
|Exodus 3:1-7 (Part of the Miscellaneous series).
|The reason why our lives are mundane is because we do not recognize that God has created a great thing. Did you come to see God work? God still is and we have that reason to rejoice in Him. If you are stuck in struggles, He sees and knows about them. God hears what you can't speak. There has never been a time where God has been surprised. God is all knowing. God knows if you are a helper or not, He will not allow an obstacle to be in His way. Today could be your fire in the bush. You can choose to ignore it or stop and recognize it. He sees, He hears and He knows. It's time that if you are saved, one of His, then you need to work.
|Preached by Anthony Morgan on April 14, 2013 (Sunday Morning).
|Are You Ready To Go?
|2 Kings 20:1-5 (Part of the Miscellaneous series).
|We live like we know as if tomorrow will be there. No one knows when death will come. We all will die and not live. If their is something in your life that needs to be fixed, do it now. Do you have anything in your life that holds you back? Do you expect to die or be incapacitated tomorrow? No one really wants to die, but if its your time to go, you're gone. We all get caught up in our small little selves. When was the last time you wept before God?
|Preached by Tommy Boring on December 2, 2012 (Sunday Morning).
|Jesus Is The Way
|John 14:1-14 (Part of the Miscellaneous series).
|There is no other way to get there than through God. Works can't get you there. Love your neighbor as yourself. Sin is like a cancer, eating away at the healthy flesh.
|Preached by Ronnie Inman on August 19, 2012 (Sunday Morning).
|Who's Your Father?
|John 8:31-59 (Part of the Spiritual Maturity series).
|Do you have a true relationship with your father? Does your life match up with your father? You say you're a Christian but you do not live the way Christ has set forth. When people see you, do they see a reflection of your Father?
|Preached by Tommy Boring on June 17, 2012 (Sunday Morning).

Red Sox 3rd-round pick Durbin Feltman on Bradfo Sho discusses possibility of joining Red Sox this season
The Red Sox selected TCU reliever Durbin Feltman in the third round of last week's MLB draft and many scouts believe Feltman has a chance of breaking into the major leagues this season.
The 21-year-old joined The Bradfo' Sho podcast to discuss that possibility, among other things.
"If I get there, I get there. It's one step at a time," Feltman said. "Of course I know the backend [of the bullpen], [Craig] Kimbrel and [Joe] Kelly. If I make it there it's a dream come true."
It's a dream that has a pretty good chance of coming true sooner rather than later.
"I'll take it one pitch at a time. It's what I've been doing since I stepped foot on TCU," Feltman explained. "Don't worry about making it to the majors or anything. Wherever I'm placed, that first outing when they call my number -- it's one strike at a time."
The closer appeared in 18 games this season for the Horned Frogs, earning six saves while striking out 43 on the way to an impressive 0.74 ERA. Batters hit just .143 against him this season.
"It got to the point this season, and this is kind of selfish, but I'd get mad when hitters would put the ball in play. I want to strike everyone out," Feltman said. "If they induce weak contact I'm okay with that, but I feel like this year I've gotten to the level where I want to get everyone out that I face."
Here are a few other highlights from the interview.
On Craig Kimbrel: "I try to model my game after him. He's one of the best, if not the best, to ever do it in the closer position. Every time he's on TV, anytime I get a chance to watch, I'm tuned in."
On being a Patriots fan: "[Tom] Brady played in a Super Bowl in Houston. I was five years old at the time so we went to a bunch of the pregame stuff. I don't know what happened. Something clicked and ever since then I've been following them. The Patriots have always been the team for me."

text: lhynne 8,781 Posted April 18, 2019 For those who are curious here's an interview way back 2014 How much can you drink? "I am not a heavy drinker. A glass of beer is enough for me, and it's all I have in front of me till the conversation ends. But as for beer mixed with Soju, I can drink it up to two glasses. I also like to drink a little bit of vodka with sweet juice, which makes it a cocktail. I'm a very bright person usually, and alcohol makes me brighter. My high spirits sometimes make people around me feel out of place, but then I fall asleep easily. Usually when I fall asleep, there are friends who take care of me around, so I don't worry." http://www.yg-life.com/archives/29132?lang=en 2 2 5 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Continuing on from the first post in this series we will look at what are some things to look for in when we are church shopping and only have a brief time to get to know a little about the community we are checking out. (Also note there are many assumptions being made in these posts, one of the more important ones is that you can gain some insight into what kind of community you are visiting by making careful observations and that in fact we often do this whether we know it or not.)
Month: August 2006
Emily and I are back from our 2 week vacation in the Midwest. We had a lovely time seeing family in Friends in Ohio, and Nashville. And we thoroughly enjoyed our anniversary which we spent in Ludington Michigan at a great Bed and Breakfast called Cartier Mansion. I will post pictures soon. While we were in Ohio we spent some time with Emily's parents who recently moved to Toledo, Ohio and they are in the middle of looking for a new home church. We went with them on Sunday to visit a local church and when we pulled up I started trying to exegete that church's theology.
Daily Scribe Jamboree 082506
Here are some fancy links for your blog reading pleasure.
Nathan writes a book review on A Heretics Guide to Eternity??? by Spencer Burke and Fuller Prof. Barry Taylor.
He sums the book up with this sentence, Religion declares that we are separated from God, that we are outsiders. Grace tells us the opposite; we are already in unless we want to be out.??? Nathan also states that the theology of this book challenges much of what people learn about God in the church but that it, takes books like Spencers to challenge what we take for granted in our theology and our lifestyles. So I wont critique his theology, Ill leave it up to the theologians to do that.??? (For a great theological response to Burke's book see Scot McKnight's post on it. )
I admit that can be hard on the church from time to time, but this is in part because I believe that we have such a grave responsibility to bear peace and reconciliation to the world. In this way I tend to enjoy people like Stanley Hauerwas, John Howard Yoder, Brian McLaren or Tony Campolo, all of which tend to present their particular messages towards the church in order to help straighten it out."
Five Year Anniversary August 18
On Friday, August 18th, Emily and I will celebrate 5 years of marriage. We are driving up to Ludington Michigan where we've rented a little cottage on the Lake for a little peace and rest. We're both really happy to have some time to ourselves but also sad that our anniversary cuts into our time with the families here in Ohio. For those of you who know our honeymoon story, I am trying to make up for what turned out to be a less than quiet and peaceful spot in Wildwood New Jersey, with this lake front cottage.
Scribe Jamboree:August 16 2006
Here are few good reads from the folks over at the Daily Scribe.
From "A People So Bold" a post about Reinhold Niebuhr's stance on nationalism. Quoting Niebuhr, "The gospel cannot be preached with truth and power if it does not challenge the pretensions and pride, not only of individuals, but of nations, cultures, civilizations, economic and political systems."
My housemate Chase and I were having lunch the other day and we started talking about important books that we would use if we were going to teach Bible and Theology students. Now granted we're both from more of an Evangelical stream of Christianity so I recognize that some of these books may not appeal to all flavors of Christianity but this list does represent a number of viewpoints and would a number of individuals on here would certainly have a lot of critique for Evangelicalism (so don't write it off either way).
Every now and then I like to have little bits of activism promoted through my site, ones that I feel are not too weird or are doing something worthwhile. Kent, PhD student in Ethics and Mennonite, sent me a link to the Ceasefire Campaign and I think it fits the criteria.
What Are Your Favorite Quaker Books?
I just finished reading Martin's post about him finally finishing John Woolman's Journal and it got me thinking about how I enjoyed Woolman's journal so much. Then I started thinking more about books (not something that's all that hard to do, really.) This reminded me to take A Description of The Qualifications Necessary to A Gospel Minister??? by Samuel Bownas (the title of the book is pretty self-explanatory) with me on my trip to the Mid-West for vacation (this Saturday).
Queries from the Gathering
Well in short our meeting last night was wonderful, there was a group of about 13 adults, 4 children (and a few lovely mennonite-volunteers) and I think it would be safe to say we all enjoyed ourselves and learned a lot from each other. For now I thought I would post the queries that we actually didn't get to use for this meeting but I encouraged everyone to think about them, blog them, and discuss them with others.

Lt. Gov. Northam visits Virginia Veterans Care Center
Northam also stopped by a Roanoke Fire and EMS station.
ROANOKE, Va. – Lt. Gov. and Democratic candidate for governor Ralph Northam visited Roanoke Monday.
Northam first stopped by the Roanoke Fire and EMS station five to meet with first responders. After that, he made his way to the Virginia Veterans Care Center for a tour of the facility. While there, Northam, who served in the Army, spoke with veterans about his plans for veteran-related policy if elected.
"We have veterans, for example medics and corpsman, that are very highly trained and skilled, so we want to do everything that we can to help them enter the private sector," said Northam.
Northam's Republican challenger Ed Gillespie has spoken out about his veteran policies as well. This past summer, he released a veterans initiative. One of his ideas is to double the number of Virginia Values Veterans - or V-3 - companies. V-3 is a program run by the Department of Veterans Services meant to help companies recruit, hire and retain veteran employees.

Should You Bring Your Child to a Chiropractor?
Categories: Chiropractic Care, Health Care
Chiropractic care for children has been a controversial topic for years. There have been a lot of strong views for and against it. Some papers, for example, argue that spinal adjustment is not good for children, using anecdotal evidences to support their claims. However, there are also others who can stand by the efficacy of chiropractic in addressing childhood illnesses.
In the meantime, while the debate rages, more and more parents are taking their children to chiropractors. According to a government report, almost 3 percent of American children had seen a chiropractor or an osteopath, and it's usually for common conditions like ear infections, among others.
Why is chiropractic care so controversial? One, there is no scientific evidence (yet) proving the effectiveness of alternative medicines. Even the American Chiropractic Association agree that there's a dearth of research, but they say that they welcome studies that will conclusively show the effects of chiropractic care on children. What is clear, though, is that more parents are choosing natural and holistic methods to treat their kids' health concerns than just medications.
If you have children and you're considering bringing them to a chiropractor, here are some basic things you must consider:
Choose your child's chiropractor well; as much as possible, ask for referrals from pediatricians you trust. Make sure that the kid chiropractor is licensed and has a lot of experience working with children. Treating children is different than treating adults; after all, when working with kids, less force is needed. If the chiropractor is inexperienced and exerts too much force, it could put the child at risk.
Remember that chiropractic care is best for musculoskeletal problems. Not all physical complaints should be brought to the chiropractor. Keep in mind that they work with the muscles and nerves, and non-musculoskeletal problems may benefit more from traditional medicine than from alternative ones. However, there are other conditions that may also benefit from manual adjustments, like respiratory, ear, nose, and throat complaints. Parents even bring their kids to chiropractors for preventive care.
Help inform your kids about the potential aftereffects of a manual adjustment. This will help ease their mind when they know that they may feel some form of discomfort or mild pain after the adjustment.
Chiropractic care may not be as established yet as traditional medicine, but given the trend of parents nowadays towards natural and holistic healing, it wouldn't be surprising to see the number of young patients rise every year.

Have you ever made a "To-Do" list and found it far too long? No one could possibly do all those things in the time available? Or maybe you don't make lists, but experience a sense of inner pressure. You have too much to do. Disappointing people around you by not completing tasks on time, frustration is growing. You are disturbed that in spite of all the busy activities, you're not seeing much progress. Not in the things that matter most to you – multiplying disciples among the unreached. Doing a Start-Stop exercise will help you get focused.
These issues are a major concern for those trying to start movements, especially in pioneer regions of the world. Member care issues join our list of obstacles that block a Disciple Making Movement.
Not Only Strategy Matters
Many of the things which block a movement's growth have to do with strategy. But the health of those initiating the movement also plays a key role. When team members are overworked, emotionally drained and struggle in their own lives and families, it has a major impact on the movement.
Exhaustion That Runs Deep
I had never felt so exhausted in my life. One doctor who saw me called it "chronic fatigue". I could barely walk up the stairs without becoming so tired I had to sit down. I was completely depleted. A few weeks off helped me to recover…somewhat.
Then another crisis hit. A medical evacuation of a fellow missionary. They nearly died. I came home and collapsed. There was absolutely nothing left inside of me. I didn't realize that following that pattern in my life would lead me toward medically diagnosed depression. I would later face a season when I needed to take significant time off to get medical care and help.
Paul, the great movement initiator knew what this kind of exhaustion felt like. The pressure of ministry can be incredibly heavy upon us.
"Besides everything else, I face daily the pressure of my concern for all the churches." 2 Cor. 11:28 NIV
Stop It!
A pastor I often listen to online said recently, "Don't give out more than you take in. That is just plain dumb! Stop it." That is about as direct as it can get.
There is real truth in his statement. At times, we need to hear it said that way. We can be a bit dumb when it comes to taking care of ourselves.
As passionate people deeply committed to the Great Commission, we give and give and give. We push ourselves to help others, even when there is little left inside. Sometimes we give out more than we have taken in. Eventually, it catches up with us and we pay the price. Often the movement does too.
Maintaining spiritual, physical, emotional and relational health is crucial. It is necessary if we want to release a thriving, multiplying, and sustained movement. Below are some of the things I have tried to practice to keep myself and my team healthy.
How to Keep Yourself And Your Team Healthy
1) Practice spiritual disciplines like Sabbath.
Do you take a weekly day to rest and refill? Or do you go week after week without any breaks? Many church planters do.
We tend to think we are somehow superhuman and able to keep going without rest. But God didn't create us to function that way. The Sabbath is a command of God for a reason. He gave us that law to bless us with the health we need. We can not give out what we don't have. Each week, find a way to practice Sabbath personally and as a team. I've written several articles on this that you may find helpful.
2) Maintain boundaries, even when growth is happening.
In community-oriented cultures, this is quite difficult. But it is necessary. Brene Brown in her book, Rising Strong, says, "Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others." Henry Cloud has also written an excellent book called Boundaries for Leaders.
It is easy to feel like the needs of those you minister to and lead must take priority. Christian ministers can feel they must have their phone on 24-7. They must always be available to those they lead.
This is a recipe for burn out. While we are called to love others deeply, we must also love ourselves. We show that by setting and upholding boundaries.
That means learning to say, "I will meet you tomorrow. Today I have another appointment." Even when that "appointment" is your date night with your spouse or taking a nap on your Sabbath.
3) Seek out mentors and peer community.
Make sure you have upward mentoring in your life. The more we grow in leadership and ministry the more difficult it can be to find mentors who speak into our lives. We are helping many, but who is helping us? Take responsibility to find those people and seek them out.
Also, look for peers you can relate with. Take time for those Skype or WhatsApp calls with an old friend. Join a peer group like the one we have for DMMs. Cultivate meaningful relationships, even when it takes energy to do so. It is vital to your emotional health.
4) Practice "friendly accountability" related to your physical health.
Do you have someone who holds you accountable for things like exercise, healthy eating, and sleep? If you crash and burn, chances are the movement will too. Maintaining your health is much easier than recovering from burn out or depression. Set goals in these areas and then find someone to hold you accountable and encourage you.
We are whole people. Our physical health is as important to God as the rest of us. Make space in your life for exercise and sleep. Don't believe the lie that you are superhuman and don't need sleep like other people. Get regular physical check ups.
Your healthy lifestyle speaks loudly of what you value. It's part of being a disciple-maker to model this too.
5) Make space in your life for friendships and play.
The challenge excited me, but often they would all fall to the ground. Our lives as disciple-makers and trainers can feel a bit like we are juggling.
We become very skilled at doing it all. One more meeting. Just one more thing that someone has asked us to help them with. Another ball in the air.
Sadly, these balls can come crashing down in a mess. The goals we hoped to accomplish don't get done and the passion to see a movement launched dwindles. We face discouragement at our lack of progress.
Obstacles To Starting A Movement
The last six weeks I've written about major obstacles to releasing a Disciple Making Movement (DMM). Click here to see the full list. Today's blog is about one of the biggest obstacles. The inability to focus time and energy on the most important DMM activities is a movement killer.
These most important DMM activities are:
-abundant seed sowing/evangelism,
-finding the person of peace,
-training believers,
-developing and mentoring leaders.
Not Everything Is Equal
Not everything that dances around trying to get our attention has the same eternal value. Some things we do have much greater importance to God.
When I stand before Him do I expect God to ask me about how many meetings I attended for my organization? Or about how many emails I wrote? No. He is going to ask me how faithful I was with what He had specifically given me to do.
These are the things that must carry greater importance for us. The things we know we are called to.
Are you called to see thousands of lost people come into the Kingdom? Do you know that reaching the unreached is your primary calling from God? Then you must be relentlessly committed to staying focused on doing the most vital DMM tasks.
Someone At My Door
Ding-dong. The doorbell to my gate rings. Who is there? I am in the middle of a project and email. I'm already running behind schedule.
I look out the window. It is my neighbor, the one I've been praying for every day using my Lost and Saved list. What will I do?
It's easy. I've already decided ahead of time that when lost people on my list come to my door, I am available. I stop what I am doing, welcome them into my home and make some tea.
It's not the same for the person who calls me on the phone wanting me to speak in their conference on Member Care topics. For them, my automatic response is "I am so sorry. My calendar is already full."
My priorities have been pre-determined. That makes it easy for me to decide.
"As the time approached for him to be taken up to heaven, Jesus resolutely set out for Jerusalem." Luke 9:51 NIV
Jesus knew how to focus on the things He was called to do. In some translations it says, He "set His face like a flint." Jesus was clear, focused and determined to move toward His goal. He was determined to fulfill His destiny. We must be the same.
What competes for your time and attention?
– Meetings (Organizational, Pastor's gatherings, Conferences, Learning Opportunities/Trainings)
– Email, Phones and Social Media
– The person at our door
– Ministry opportunities not related to DMMs and the Unreached
– Extended Family Responsibilities
Why Don't We Say "No" To The Demands?
Why are we so easily pulled away from giving time to evangelism? Or disciple-making and leadership development? Below are some possible reasons.
1) We fear offending people or being seen as proud.
We were a group of young church planters and missionaries. We had come to this seminar to learn from George, a church planting expert.
It Sounded Strange
It sounded strange to me. I had well-established ideas from my upbringing and education about the qualifications for ministry.
Those ideas didn't include brand new believers serving the Lord's Supper. That was for sure!
I did not know that many of my ideas about who was allowed to do what in the church came from my own church traditions. They didn't come from the model given in the New Testament.
Mindsets About Qualifications For Ministry – An Internal Obstacle
Many barriers to the growth of a Disciple Making Movement (DMM) are external. But this one is a barrier in our own minds. Our culture and background often influence us more than the New Testament example. It did in my life until I was exposed to teaching about how to multiply disciple-makers.
I Had Arrived
"You are now an ordained pastor!" the District Superintendent said as he shook my hand. I felt so proud. I had done it.
The requirements were not unusually high. They were similar to most denominations, but it had taken me many years to complete them.
I'd gone through Bible college, completing a four-year degree in Bible and Theology. I had finished my master's degree from a seminary. There were tests and interviews with committees. Now it was done. I was Reverend C. Anderson.
I now had the full blessing of my denomination to officiate any religious ceremony; a wedding, burial, baptism or baby dedication. Woohoo! I had arrived.
A Disclaimer
In this article, I in no way want to put down the significant role of spiritual leaders in the church today. I admire, respect and honor pastors for their the devoted and sacrificial service. They give so freely to the Lord and to their churches.
Pastors work hard under very tough conditions. They are paid little and under tremendous continual stress and demands. They deserve our love and appreciation. Like I said above, I am a pastor and an ordained minister.
Instead, my goal is to address what can be a major barrier to the growth of a movement.
When we elevate the role of pastor above what the New Testament does, we create a barrier. It can prevent us from multiplying disciples in a rapid way.
So often, our own cultural worldview about leadership gets in the way. We read scripture through the filter of our personal backgrounds.
1 Peter 2:9 "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation…"
1. The Non-Christian Worldview And It's Impact
Let's look first at the person coming from a non-Christian worldview. In organized religions like Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism, there is an established clergy.
For the Muslim, it is the Imam.
In the Hindu religious worldview, there is a special caste of people- the Brahmins. They are uniquely qualified to do religious work.
For the Buddhist, it is the monk or the Lamma. Only those who wear the orange robes can perform certain religious duties.
The idea that an ordinary person can do spiritual work is very much against the norm. This is true in almost all non-Christian cultures. The priesthood of all believers is a radical shift of thinking for them. For those coming out of Islam, Hinduism or Buddhism, their default thinking is this: only special people meet the qualifications for performing religious duties.
Bringing a shift to this worldview is absolutely central to seeing multiplication happen.
You will not have lay disciple-makers who; start groups, baptize, train and take initiative unless you strongly teach on this. Without clear Biblical teaching, their natural cultural bias will hinder them from stepping up to do "spiritual work."
2. The Christian Worldview And It's Impact
When Jesus died on the cross, the curtain in the temple was torn from top to bottom (Luke 23:45). God's sovereign action in doing that was an incredible symbol to the Jewish disciples of Jesus.
Now everyone had access to God! No longer was it only the priests who could come into His presence. The Old Testament Levitical priesthood was over and a new age of the Spirit began. It was to be a time when all who followed Jesus would serve as His chosen ambassadors, His priests.
Hierarchy ended when the New Covenant began.
Study Hebrews 8 and what it has to say about the New Covenant if you'd like to dig deeper.
Sadly, in Christianity today, many shadows of the Old Testament remain.
In the book of Acts, we see certain roles played by apostles, deacons and elders. You also see ordinary believers, filled with the Holy Spirit going everywhere making disciples. Wherever they went they shared their faith. They started groups of disciples (churches) and the movement multiplied.
The word pastor in the New Testament describes a spiritual gift (Eph. 4:11). In the Bible, the word pastor is not a title describing a special position in a spiritual hierarchy.
Many of us come from Christian backgrounds. Like Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims or others, we too have been influenced strongly by our worldview. The religion of Christianity seems to say that there are certain spiritual tasks that are only to be performed by a pastor. This is why we often face resistance from traditional pastors when starting a DMM.
But is that typical Christian view Biblical? Or is it something that developed later in the history of the church?
The church's structure was dramatically influenced in the 3rd century by the Roman Emperor Constantine. At that time, a hierarchy elevating the clergy above ordinary believers developed. Christian leaders took on the rank and even began to wear the clothing of the Roman elite.
Start With Your Own Mindset
If you want the movement you start to grow and multiply, you will need to address this mindset in yourself first.
As a trainer or leader, what makes me qualified? Is it my special training? My education?
Issues of spiritual pride creep in quickly causing us to want to control rather than empower. Remind yourself often of the priesthood of all believers and that your job is to equip them to do the ministry (Eph. 4:12).
Let's Assess And Examine Ourselves
Ask yourself these questions.
I went to the gate cringing inside.
What Exactly Is The Meaning Of Tenacity?
Tenacity is defined as "the quality of being very determined." I love those words- very determined. How tenacious are you about seeing your people group reached? Or the one God called you to work among? Victory is ours in Jesus. We already know that. But there is still an enemy who so often looks hard to defeat. Like in Churchill's quote, sometimes we are tempted to "yield to the overwhelming might" that is displayed around us. We must not.
We must be extremely determined to overcome the obstacles.
Don't Just Guess- Give Assignments
While it is tempting to try to guess who will be worth investing in, we are often wrong in our guesses. The best way to discover who to invest in is to first train a larger group of people. Give them assignments to apply the training. Then, watch to see who does what they were trained to do. Those who actually take steps to begin working are the ones worth investing in. These are the people who will most likely be the most fruitful.
*Jeremiah- An Unlikely Choice
I was invited to speak in a Discipleship Training School (DTS) for Youth With A Mission (YWAM). There were about 15 students. I was teaching for a week on the Biblical Foundation for Missions. My goal was to present the need of reaching the unreached. I would then call people to get involved in church planting efforts.
Some of the students looked like they would be wonderful church planters. They were attentive to my training. They spoke up in discussions. Good questions were asked and they seemed to understand the concepts.
Others, well, they seemed pretty "villagy." I wasn't sure they were understanding well, even
though the translator did a good job. Sometimes they stared off into space blankly.
This was especially true of one older man named *Jeremiah. He didn't seem very "with it" and he wasn't very educated. I would never have chosen him as the person in the class who would produce the most fruit. But he did! Jeremiah applied everything I taught. God spoke to him during that week about an unreached nomadic group of honey hunters. He quickly made plans to go live among them.
Later, through this uneducated man, whole villages came to Christ! The others who had looked so bright? Most of them ended up doing ministry things of some kind. But they didn't lead very many unreached people to Christ. Who would have known Jeremiah would be the one worth investing in? Certainly not me!
Train Everyone, Not Some
Ying Kai of T4T says it so well, "Train everyone, not some." Jesus taught this principle in the parable about the net.
"Once again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net that was let down into the lake and caught all kinds of fish. When it was full, the fishermen pulled it up on the shore. Then they sat down and collected the good fish in baskets, but threw the bad away." Matt. 13:47-48 NIV
We could say that this parable refers to evangelism efforts. Jesus, however, never really separated evangelism and discipleship the way we do. His goal was to call people to follow Him. He wanted to make disciples who would obey His command and would multiply His Kingdom. So the principle definitely applies both to evangelism and discipleship.
Don't Filter Too Early
Often we are tempted to "pre-filter" those we will train as disciple makers. Consciously or unconsciously, we pre-determine who has potential. Our rationale behind this is that we don't want to waste our time on the wrong people. We have limited time, energy and finances to use. But, so often, the people we think will be faithful and fruitful are not the ones who actually are! I can't emphasize this enough.
It isn't the person who is the most charismatic, extroverted and educated. Neither is it the smart, responsive, well dressed, organized or passionate that end up being most fruitful. It is the person who is the most willing to obey and put into practice what they learn.
Many Good Hearted People Don't Have Time
I remember when my husband and I took our first ministry position. We were straight out of Bible college and full of ideas. We had a great passion to change the world. It only took a few months, however, before we hit major obstacles and massive challenges. We soon realized we were in far over our heads!
In his book, "Leading with a Limp," Dan Allender writes,
"The leader who doesn't feel pressed to the wall often is not involved in a work that is advancing sufficiently against the forces of darkness. But the burned-out leader has allowed the intensity and exhaustion of his calling to take away the pleasure of hope."
Not Focusing Is Serious
Failure to focus is serious. The eternal destiny of thousands of unreached people is at stake. Their future depends on our actions and decisions. Can we keep from being pulled in a million different directions? If not, they may never hear the gospel and believe. Thankfully, there are simple keys to keeping our concentration on DMM goals.
I Never Planned to Do That!
Do you ever go through the day and think, "How did it get to be 3 pm?" You glance at your watch and say, "I haven't done anything I planned to do today!" That happened to me a few days ago. I had decided I would write for an hour, exercise, go visit my neighbor to share a testimony, and study language. At 3 pm, I hadn't done any of those things! Instead, I'd read emails, followed some social media feeds, chatted with my husband about an upcoming trip and watched a video link or two. Oh yeah. I also made coffee and suddenly cleaned out the refrigerator which I'd noticed was dirty.
It is so easy to get off track and forget about what is important! Steven Covey describes this in his book "First Things First". We easily do "the urgent" and fail to do "the important." Or, we end up doing what is easiest, rather than things that take a more determined effort.
3 Keys To Staying Focused On Your Disciple Making Movement (DMM) Goals
1. Decide Ahead Of Time What Is Important.
As humans, we follow patterns and typical behaviors. Most of us are in the habit of letting ourselves be easily distracted from our most important goals. We quickly postpone work on our real vision- starting a Disciple Making Movement! To change habits and become more focused, clearly determine what is most important to you. When distractions come your way, you have already made decisions. You know how you will handle those things.
Ask yourself these questions:
1) What are my 3 most important Disciple Making Movement (DMM) related goals?
2) What activities will significantly help me get those things done?
3) What activities prevent me from having time to work on those goals?
John's Example
Here is an example to make it more clear.
John's 3 most important DMM related goals are:
A. Abundant seed sowing- 5000 gospel presentations this year.
B. Start 4 new 2nd generation churches.
C. Train 30 people in the first six T4T Lessons until they can train others.
Activities that will help him make progress are:
– Training local believers to share their testimony and the Jesus story. Several 2-day trainings are planned already.
– Running a weekly training for the blue and green people from the 1st generation churches.
– Visiting these faithful and fruitful people for one on one discipleship at least weekly.
Some activities that might prevent John from doing those things:
– Serving on an organization's board that doesn't have to do with his DMM goals.
– Preaching on topics not related to DMMs, even though he will get a good honorarium for doing that.
– Wasting time on Facebook and other social media when he could be visiting the leaders he is developing.
Make sense as this relates to John?
Now Do It For Yourself
Now think about those 3 questions for yourself.
1) What are my 3 most important DMM related goals?
2) What activities will significantly help me get these things done?
3) What activities prevent me from having time to work on these goals?
Write down your answers.
Take a few minutes to think through specific examples or scenarios. Think about the times when you will have to make choices to stay focused on your most important goals.
Using John's example, he might think about this scenario.
John's best friend Peter is the president of a Christian organization. It does wonderful mercy ministry in his area. They have been friends for a long time. Peter requests John to serve on his organization's board of elders. It is an honor to be asked to do this. It will also mean an all-expense paid trip to Singapore each year. That is a place John has always wanted to visit. What will he do?
By thinking about these kinds of scenarios ahead of time, John can see that he would need to say "no" to this. It is a kind offer and a good ministry. If he says,"yes", though, he will not have time to train the local believers and disciple his blue and green people. "If I am offered those kinds of opportunities this year, I will say 'no'. I want to stay focused so I can accomplish my most important goals. I want to see a DMM take off in my region!" he thinks.
2. Review And Check Yourself Regularly.
Once you have done the above, take the next step. Schedule a time to regularly evaluate yourself. Are you staying focused?
I do this through quarterly retreats. During that retreat, I review my goals and activities. I invite the Holy Spirit to refocus me on His priorities for my life. I make adjustments.
It is important to evaluate more frequently too. It can be done every Monday morning before you start your work week. Team meetings are another good weekly evaluation point you can use. Keep your top 3 goals in front of you. Check yourself often. Are these the 3 areas you are spending most of your time on? If not, make adjustments to your activities.
3. Say "No" Often.
Only say "Yes" to opportunities that contribute toward your top 3 goals.
This is difficult! It is especially hard to say "no" to friends, family members and leaders we respect. Remember, when you say "Yes" to things not related to your goals, you are saying "No" to more important things. When you say "Yes" to helping someone plan a conference in your area, you are actually saying "No" to having time to share Christ with your neighbors. If the conference planning takes your time away from the new believers, you are in reality saying "No" to them.
Who does God want to say "Yes" to? Be courageous and say "No" often!
Focus Is Possible!
Staying focused is challenging, but it's possible. The main thing is to change our regular behavior. As we develop new habits by saying "no" and regularly evaluating, we will make progress. Changing in this area is worth the effort. The unreached around you wait to hear the good news. Jesus died for their salvation. Your great calling is worth giving a focused effort to!
Habits Matter
We are creatures of habit. Habits are not things we think about. We just do them. I don't think about if I will drink coffee in the morning. I just do. I don't think about brushing my teeth either. It happens automatically. When I meet someone, I always say, "How are you?" Another habit.
There are many important habits we need in our life if we want to release movements. Sharing your testimony freely needs to become a habit. Praying for the sick should become normal behavior. Making room in your calendar to focus on discipling new believers – it needs to be a typical thing for you.
The most important habit to develop, out of all of these, is the habit of regular prayer and intercession.
How can you develop this habit? How do you make intercessory prayer a regular, natural, normal part of your life?
"Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed." Luke 5:16 NIV
Keystone Habits- One Change That Creates Others
"The Power of Habit", a popular business book by Charles Duhigg, describes what he calls keystone habits. A keystone habit is a new behavior that once it develops, catalyzes change in many other areas of our lives. The habit of regular intercessory prayer is a keystone habit for a disciple maker. It makes evangelism easier. You will see the release of the anointing you've been wanting. A powerful passion to reach the unreached around you will grow.
5 Things You Can Do To Develop This New Habit
1) Make a fresh decision to develop an intercessory prayer habit.
This is hard if you have wanted to prioritize prayer in the past but haven't. It is difficult to try to do something again and again but fail. Don't let the enemy's lies tell you this isn't important enough to try once more. Don't listen to the voice in your head that says, "I'm not really an intercessor. That is a gift for other people."
The Father wants to help you become like His Son. Jesus regularly went away and prayed. If it was a habit in His life, it can become one in yours. Start with a fresh decision to try again.
2) Write down 5 reasons why developing this habit will help your ministry.
Knowing your "why" is key to moving forward in anything new or difficult. A lot of us don't like to take time to write things down. You may like to talk more than pick up a pen. Maybe you even hate journaling. Recording things in written form, however, makes them clear. It helps us to commit. Take a minute right now. Jot down 5 benefits to your disciple-making efforts if you started interceding daily.
3) Choose a time to start. Mark it on your calendar and set a reminder.
Now you need to commit. We put our good intentions into practice by marking our calendars. A lot of people are not very calendar oriented. I understand that. Perhaps you are someone who has a diary somewhere, but you can never find it. Using a calendar is another important habit. I'll write about it in another post sometime! But for now, at least set a reminder on your phone every day for a month. Choose a specific time you will intercede daily. Don't start with huge goals. Start small. Maybe it is only 10-15 minutes a day. Later, you can increase this if you want to. Consistency is more important than quantity when it comes to habits.
4) Find someone to join you.
Encourage a friend, spouse, or colleague to take this journey with you. Share your new habit with a like-minded person and set goals together. We are much more likely to succeed when we have a partner in our journey. Who can you talk to this week about developing a stronger intercessory prayer habit? Ask them today to join you. Set up the first time you will check in with one another about this.
5) Decide now what you will do to celebrate when this becomes a habit.

Perfect place for our Connecticut trip
This house was the perfect place for my sister, husband and I to stay while we were visiting family and friends in the area. We had all the conveniences of our own home (kitchen, living rooms, bedrooms, baths, lawn, patio and porch) in a beautiful country town filled with history friendly people and summer bounty. And to do so within at a modest price was a great find.
Very Cozy
We recently stayed at Eve's Country Retreat for the Thanksgiving Holiday. This is our second time staying at this home. Yes, it is an older home, but it is cozy and comfortable for my family of 6 and surely beats a hotel. We hosted dinner for 15 in the dining room which was very spacious. The kitchen is well equipped with the essentials too. Since our last stay in June 2012, there are new appliances (fridgerator, washer & dryer) which was great. Each of our children had their own bedrooms and space. One negative that I will comment on is that there were no living room curtains this time as it did have on our last stay. Being cold and 33 degrees outside, it would have been nice to shut the dark skies and cold out in the evening after the sun set. We are from Florida and not very fond of the colder temperatures. Maybe on our next stay the curtains will be there. The house did have heat which we used. I have to say that the communication with the owner, Rachel M., once again was excellent. She was always available to answers questions and wanted our stay to be a positive one (yes, it was). It's great customer service and warm hospitality that made us return to this home. Thank you Rachel again for a memorable stay and an awesome Thanksgiving holiday with my CT family in your home! Till the next time . . . Janice & Wayne Lehmann West Palm Beach, FL
Easter in Ellington
I knew the house was old and was prepared for that, however, it was not clean. Basically you are at the mercy of whomever stayed there prior to your visit. If they followed the rules and cleaned and vacuumed, you will find the house that way. I was up until well past 1:00 a.m. the night before our departure cleaning. Also, I was prepared for an older home, however, we we traveling with our Grandson and I was very thankful that he was not crawling yet because the carpets are so old that the nails from the track pins are all showing through around the perimeter of the rooms. Thankfully they are rusted through so you can see them and avoid them, however a child may not be that observant. The furniture is not only old but very uncomfortable in the spacious living room. The den area is far more comfortable. It was very convenient and the beds were also comfortable. There is one TV and it only got 3 stations (we were traveling with a teenager) and the wifi was horrible. I do feel however that the accommodations, for the size house and so on, were reflective of the price in most ways. The owner is pleasant and does not try to hide the fact that this place has stood still since the mid 1950's however, there are concerns if you are traveling with young children. There were 6 of us in our party and we had plenty of room. It was obviously a beautiful home at one point and whomever built it spared no expense. I read the reviews and value people taking the time to write them. I am trying to be fair and factual with mine. I tried to figure out how to give a 1/2 star but was unsuccessful. 2.5 would be my rating. I would probably not rent this home again which is unfortunate since we travel to CT a couple of times a year.
Have you ever rented a vacation home that did not include a mandatory cleaning fee? Kind of unheard of, right? To make our mid- century modern vacation home affordable to a larger swath of society, we offer our renters the option of doing their own cleaning prior to their departure or paying a cleaning fee. The renter above appears to have regretted selecting the option of "clean it yourself".
Have no fear -Eve's will continue to provide this great way to cut vacation costs. In addition, the renter states that "Basically you are at the mercy of whomever stayed there prior to your visit. If they followed the rules and cleaned and vacuumed, you will find the house that way." This is in fact not the case as the owner is aware of variable standards of cleanliness so for consistency, the house is cleaned routinely by a professional crew after departure of each and every renter. Our 50- year old wall to wall, 100% wool carpeting is much appreciated by our renters, especially those with small children, not only because of its beauty but also because parents are freed from worry of exposing their babies to volatile organic compounds, high levels of endocrine-disrupting organotins, flame retardants, permethrin (a pesticide), and formaldehyde, contained in the new synthetic carpets. They are more than willing to view some worn spots and the occasional tac pin (all nailed down and harmless) in return for this peace of mind. Oh and by the way, the wifi we have the highest speed available from the provider in the neighborhood(Frontier) and it works wonderfully. This renter must have been having a bad Wifi weekend!
A wonderful place
We stayed here for over 2 months between selling our house and buying our new one. It is a wonderful property with tons of charm. The communication with Rachel, the owner, was fantastic. Any questions we had were answered quickly. She was extraordinarily accommodating and flexible as our closing date was changed multiple times.
Our family of 5 had plenty of room and everything we needed was there for us, it was just perfect. Rachel is a wonderful host, we made a friend through this process.
Quiet getaway in unique and beautiful home
My husband and I stayed at Eve's Country Retreat this past weekend and had a lovely time. It is clean, well-kept and very charming. There are beautiful details in the house that are unlike any other place I have seen, and it is very spacious. There is a charming fireplace and a lot of space for large groups. The owner was very easy to communicate with and was very accommodating. We would definitely stay again!

After being unmotivated last week, I've spent most of this week editing The Legacy of Heroes Game Master Guide. It's been quite educational for me. Except for one stint at a very strange, but entertaining Vampire game, I've never had reason to read a GM's book or a Monster book before, and this one is both in one. Really enjoying this project, and the humorous touches that Vinnie et al included in this book.
We had a nice relaxed celebration of Rich's birthday this past weekend. A couple nice meals, some Dr Who and Torchwood. Didn't get to go rollerblading again, due to wet weather, but we had a good time even so.
I purchased a new domain this week as well, and set up a new webhosting account with HostGator. In the coming weeks, I will be creating a portfolio there. First a demo WordPress site, then a demo Drupal site, then a demo Joomla site. After that, I'll be studying PHP and MySQL to see what I can learn to enhance my knowledge of these systems. At some point after that, I may do a Wiki demo, too. This is not something I want to turn into a huge business, but it is something I'd like to do as one of my streams of income.
On the income note, I've been doing a bit of job searching, but not much, due to the large amounts of editing I left myself for this week. Next week, I'll start putting together applications and start applying if I can find the types of jobs I want. According to my Plan, official deadline for applying to jobs is the 24th of this month.
I've also got a couple of story ideas floating around in my head, but they haven't come rushing to the front quite yet. Health is doing pretty well. No major issues lately, just the usual. Life is good, and so full of opportunity and love.
Awesome Anniversary September 1, 2011Posted by Hydy in life.

Rich and I had a very good weekend together.
We watched the first eight episodes of the new season of Torchwood. A very interesting new plot, season-long story this time, instead of monster of the week. Always fun to learn more of Captain Jack's history.
We also had lots of good food. P.F. Chang's, Papa Murphy's, TGIFridays, and lots of movie theater junk food, too.
We managed a rollerblading lesson with no falls Sunday afternoon. Barely. I did fine on flat surfaces, but inclines freaked me out. I did learn how to stop by going into the grass, without falling. But still no luck stopping in normal ways, pretty sure I'd trip myself.
And went to see four movies: X-Men First Class, Pirates of the Carribean, Captain America and Cowboy & Aliens. Two at the dollar theater and two at Rave. I enjoyed the development of the history and relationships of Charles and Eric, and seeing some of the early mutants as teenagers, though Rich had to tell me who some of them were. A good basis for a new story, I think. Johnny Depp was fun as always, and got me curious about the history of the Fountain of Youth as well. I also really liked the missionary character and am exploring a possible new story using a similar theme. Captain America was an entertaining set up of a character I knew nothing about and not exactly what I expected. Rich says I need to see Thor to fully understand some of it. We would have done, but it was already out of the dollar theater. Cowboys & Aliens I fell asleep during. Simplistic premise and plot, lots of action, only one surprising character, and her presence felt forced.
All in all, a good weekend, with plenty of sleep, food and fun.

Lots of things going on. I didn't post yesterday because I was taking care of a friend and getting annoyed at uncommunicative doctors. They seem to at least be organized today for her. Hopefully, they'll finally get things figured out and fixed.
It was also my seventh anniversary with Rich yesterday. He worked all day and I felt rather ill all evening, though we did have dinner together and watch Big Bang Theory and Torchwood. We're celebrating this weekend. Probably at the Renaissance Fair (Edit: Or not, it doesn't open until Next weekend) and the dollar theater. I want to see the newest Pirates and X-men.
I have made two new plans, with deadlines, today as well. First one is a learning plan for myself: WordPress, Drupal and Joomla! and PHP & MySQL. Just the basics of each, using the For Dummies for each for an overview so I can compare and contrast the first three, and see what I can pick up about the last. Then I'll figure out what I really want to put time and effort into. Second, is starting on the road to a better job. Updating my resume, getting it posted online and then searching for data entry jobs at companies or organizations I'd be happy working for.
