I go through many phases of blogging and alternating through ideas.  I am not exactly sure what causes this, but I know that it does happen.  I end up writing every day for a month, then I end up going 5 weeks without publishing.  I guess I get so busy with other things, writing takes a back seat. 

So, here’s the latest.  My health is doing very well for the first time in several years.  I am feeling a little better every week at this point so that is good. 

I’ve been doing some painting but in reality Becca is doing even more so I am taking a bit of a back seat as she has been doing so much painting lately. 

We looked at a house recently, but then looked a little bit more at debt and decided to wait a bit longer. 

We alternate on finances so after the last six months of Becca doing the finances, I am taking the lead for a bit.  This basically means that I have set up the database system that will track all our debt, bills and income in real time in openoffice base.  ;)  All in all, we are doing better than I thought.  We have about 10 debts left, but all of it is hospital bills, taxes and a school loan. 

I have also recently taken a bit of a back seat with Sunday Morning speaking responsibilities lately.  My attention will be focused more on small groups, invitation, discipleship and creative media endeavors. 

I’ve put together some other sites, but really haven’t made anything from them as of yet.  I may decide to automate the Thornville-Ohio site on news and info and see what happens while still incorporating some regular content every now and then.

The animals are all doing well.  Dugal is growing.  He is getting big.  We had a hard time figuring out why he wouldn’t eat, then realized that he wanted to eat out in the open with us as opposed to being in his kennel and eating.  Go figure.  Once we got that figured out, the problem may be getting him to stop eating long enough to play more…  ;)  maybe not.

Becca got a raise of around .50 at work recently so that will help.  We may also try to sell some of her paintings and see what they will bring. 

Anyway, that is a roundabout update with most everything…  I think.
