Last night I was headed to bed at a relatively early hour, and as I prepared to go to sleep I decided I’d get up and run this morning. I haven’t run much lately, and I need to. This morning was going to be relatively warm, good for running.
Then the Bears staged an amazing comeback and won the football game. I had to keep watching. The game ended at 11 PM, I figured I’d still be OK.
Then Laura woke up at 3 AM. And again at 4:30 AM. She pitched a fit when I told her she had to go back to sleep. I left her in her crib. At 5:00 she was back awake. So I brought her into our bed. She was awake until 5:30 when I finally got up to get ready for work. By 6:20 when I was leaving the house she was finally sleeping. Hopefully she sleeps in a while.
Needless to say, I didn’t get any running done this morning. And I think I’ll be finding something to drink with caffine in it here very soon now.
Children are an amazing blessing. But that doesn’t mean they won’t keep you up at night one way or another.

An encouragement to stay at the church you’re in.
You may notice a new face staring at you when you visit my blog – I modified my theme slightly to include a small picture of myself. There’s also a link to a little “About Me” page if you’re really interested. I figured the site could use a bit of a personal touch; yeah, there’s a real person writing these posts, and yeah, he looks kinda funny. Anyhow, thanks to all of you for reading, please stop back, and don’t forget to leave comments!

There’s been a lot of discussion recently after CT listed the top 50 most influential books of the 20th century. JT links to another summation that really hits the nail on the head.
It’s managed to be a busy week, but now the weekend is upon us. Finally!
This afternoon Becky and I are headed to the MAC to play some racquetball, then we’ll go (with the girls) out for supper and down to the coffeehouse to hear Billy Heller – first time in a long time to hear him!
Nothing really scheduled for Saturday. Sunday is church and then possibly a babysitter and a date with Becky! Gotta love the weekend.
It’s been almost a month since the last one, and while I think I lost a few good links in the FeedLounge to Google Reader transition, I still have some good stuff to share.
(Actually, I didn’t lose any – but I’m too lazy to go dig out my text file of links and find the good ones. Sorry.)
So, here they are, in sort of a serious-to-non-serious order. Enjoy!
