Where has the time gone?

It's hard to believe that it's been 2 years since my last post. Not much has changed in that time. I traded the Dodge Caliber for a 2014 Ford Focus (which I really like), I gave up on the Home Inspection course (not exactly what I thought it would be), my weight still goes up and down like a merry-go-round, I'm still at PACE TPA (formerly Davey Administration Group), still attending Truth Tabernacle church, and still working on my "World of Emmaus miniature village". I actually have two villages because I have two scales, 1:64 & 1:72/HO scale. Perhaps I'll post some pictures someday. Until the next post.......

Gean M. Lynch

I'm sad to report that a dear friend of mine, Gean M. Lynch, has passed away this morning. Gean was an Administrator I worked with when I started Davey Administration Group over 9 years ago and was actually the person responsible for me getting hired. She retired about a year or so ago. My condolences go out to her family and her devoted Bishon Frise, Denali.

The End

Well, this could very well be my last post. As you can tell I haven't been very motivated in the past year or so in keeping it updated and now I'm moving and don't plan on having internet in my new pad. I'll miss keeping up with my friends' blogs, fortunately I'll see them at church. If things work out in the future I just may pick it back up. God bless.

Updates

Well, it's been almost a year since I started the "Emmaus Project" which has turned into a catch all. This is the project to where I'm building a miniature town to go along with my blog. I've decided to use the 1:87, or HO scale, so that the cars are in perspective with the buildings. That leaves me with 4 vehicles since the others I had in the original picture were a slightly larger 1:72 scale. The houses in the picture I posted last March are being "renovated". I also have a Pizza Hut and a family restaurant of some sort that I still need to paint and glue together.

The "Home Inspection" course is coming along smoothly. I'm on my 4th kit already so I don't have much to go. I didn't realize there was so much to inspecting a house. This course involves inspecting everything from the house to the landscaping.

As for the Gym, I'm more out of shape than I realized. I'm getting on the treadmill at 3 mph, the elliptical machine wipes me out after 2 minutes, so the stationary bicycle is about the only equipment I'm not having an issue with. Well.....that and the weights which I'm maxing out on 20 lbs. I haven't seen any results yet but boy howdy have I felt some results. Until next time......

I Can Relate

1) Some cause happiness wherever they go; others whenever they go.

2) The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

3) It is better to stay silent and be thought a fool than to open one's mouth and remove all doubt.

4) I am just one step away from being rich, all I need now is money.

5) They say that love is more important than money, but have you ever tried to pay your bills with a hug?

6) You can only be young once. But you can always be immature.

7) One of the greatest pleasures in life is accomplishing what others say is impossible for you to do.

8) Never say never when it comes to what God can do.

9) Be yourself. An original is always worth more than a copy.

10) The hardest job in the world must be working in a bubble wrap factory. Can you imagine the self control that is required to work there?

Joining the Gym

Well folks, today I joined the Gym. I believe it's a worthwhile investment, provided I go, and should help me to finally be able to wear some of the clothes that have sat dormant in my closet for a long time. My first session will be this coming Monday and I plan to go on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. Of course we'll be going into Revival this coming week so I'll plan my Gym visits around that. Speaking of Revival, I'm still not sure who will be preaching for us but I'm sure looking forward to it.

Jello

I like Jello. It's such a light desert and so easy to make. Here lately I have tried a couple of ideas that apparently have been approved by my roommates since I have been designated to be the Jello preparer. Last week I prepared lime-flavored Jello and added cherries to it. Kinda like a cherry-lime drink. Last night I prepared lemon-flavored Jello and added strawberries to it. There's still strawberry, strawberry-banana and raspberry in the garage (that where we keep it). I'm so inspired I'm wanting to go to the grocery store right now and see what other flavors there are. Jello is a great alternative to all of the other deserts that I am sooooo over after the holidays. But then again, perhaps one day Jello will have flavors like chocolate chip cookie, red velvet cake, fudge brownie, oh, I'd better stop.
