Patrick Swayze - gone

Wow, Patrick Swayze just died.

I will admit, that I never was a huge fan...but I had enough respect for him to know he was a good actor, and singer.

Anyways, it just reminds me that we're all like grass, withering away so quickly. But through Jesus Christ, we have eternal life with Him - we're all on our journeys home.

Show Must Go On

Today was/is and going to continue to be a GOOD day!

Church was good, however, with its rough points - such as, ALL MY CHORDS were missing! Mic issues! Power point issues! LOL! But, thats Ok, you persevere through it anyways. I am pretty sure David didn't have a microphone and a guitar to hook up to an amp while writing "Psalm 23." Haha...

I wrote, "The Show Must Go On" as the subject of today's blog just because I have that song in my mind, but now I see how it goes with the above mentioned "technical issues." Hahaha. Funny how God works...just had a light bulb moment right now!
....the Show DOES go on!!!

So speaking of the "Show Must Go On", I just got this FAN-FREAKIN-TASTIC new SingStar game which contains all QUEEN songs!!! Yuppers! Freddie Mercury all the way!!! So I wasted the last 2 hours singing my heart out. I know its a little pathetic, however, maybe one day this will be my golden ticket. Haha. He claims to have never had any vocal lessons, and yet his voice, is just incredible!!! His rock ballads, aahhh...wonderful.

Also met up with a great friend, Sarah (you rock!) today - for lunch at Red Robins! It was nice to catch up!! We went floating down the river yesterday - which was my FIRST successful float of the summer, which is a little pathetic, seeing that its SEPTEMBER already. I got caught in way too many storms...So anyyyways...we had alot of fun catching up yesterday.

So thats it for now!!!
Love, D

Lazy Monday

Today is a stat holiday - whoohoo!

My day has been entirely wasted by watching multiple episodes of Season 2 of "Mad Men" with brief naps in between. Maybe not necessarily wasted, it could be time well spent and NEEDED.

Although this morning I felt really sick to my stomach. Stupid antibiotics....

Just popping in to say "allo"

Birds the word!

I Look To You

Whitney Houston - a story of redemption!

I don't know much about where she is in her life, but the words below from the song "I Look to You" sure say alot...

It was also the song I needed to hear, and to sing - that "I look to You"......

As David in the Psalms wrote:
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from You
Maker of heaven and earth....

I LOOK TO YOU
Whitney Houston
----------------------
As I lay me down
Heaven hear me now
Im lost without a cause
After giving it my all

Winter storms have come
And darkened my sun
After all that I've been through
Who on earth can I turn to

I look to you
I look to you
After all my strength is gone
In you I can be strong
I look to you
I look to you
And when melodies are gone
In you I hear a song
I look to you

After losing my breath
There's no more fighting left
Sinking to rise no more
Searching for that open door

And every road that I've taken
Lead to my regret
And I don't know if Im gonna make it
Nothing to do but lift my head

(my levee's have broken, my walls have come)
Coming down on me
(crumbling down on me)
All the rain is falling
(the rain is falling, defeat is calling)
Set me free
(i need you to set me free)
Take me far away from the battle
I need you
Shine on me

Discovery

How did I NOT know how GOOD the band Muse is? Oh my goodness, I feel like I just struck gold...
