It's Happening...



Its Happening! Little Luke is on his way, and Stefanie and Mark are headed to Labor and Delivery.  Unfortunately, we have no way to get to Austin, so Leta is feeling pretty depressed, not to mention anxious and nervous!  Yikes I really need to work on the baby quilt!

Nothing much else is going on.  Got a hair cut today, someone should be coming out from San Antonio to buy the bike, and I got 2 "Thanks A Lotto " cards from work, for my efforts this past quarter.

I haven't been running or exercising and I've been eating tons of sugar again.  Incredibly, my weight was down about .4 lbs.  I did get out and ran one time this past week.  I'm feeling more and more convicted about eating better (more fruits, vegetables, organic stuff, etc), also eating at more regular times and better menu planning.  The guilt of not exercising also is bothering me.  So lets see how I do in November!

I've signed up for the Jingle Bell 5K Run/Walk for Arthritis.  Even more than signing up for the walk, I've created a team to try to do some fund raising.  My motivations are, the girls in my life all seem to have been diagnosed with a Arthritis, and it is the number one cause of disability in the country.  If you would like to join the team or donate the link is below.  The event is in San Antonio, at the University of the Word Incarnate campus on December 17th.  There is a health fair that starts at 2:30 PM and the 1 Mile fun run is at 4:30, 5K race is at 5:00 PM.

Finally, I've been contemplating bible studies.  Leta and I are considering leading one in our apartment, for the  other residents but I don't feel qualified to lead, nor do I have any idea how to put one together.  I don't know how to select a topic or book, have to prepare, how to host and lead the actual study, how long the studies should last (both the individual meeting and the number of weeks we should meet).  As you can see, God is in the details!  So keep us in prayer as we try to sort all this out.

That being said, part of me thinks something along the lines, of "Just Do It" (catchy phrase no?  :-)  ) and as long as we offer hospitality and stay bible focused, we really can't "go wrong" if we let the Spirit lead us.  So again, I ask for your prayers!  Also feel free to send any suggestions, comments, ideas, resource materials or articles, etc!

Have a great week!
