He he, not a ton. :) Primarily church stuff. We have a lock-in coming up next month. Trying to learn new songs for church. Though I've been wanting to update my SoundCloud, I've felt kinda burnt. >.< Like motivation and ambition is gooonne. Bleh. I'm sure I'll be over it soon.
 
I feel very...small.

I dunno. Saturday afternoon, my son went out for a walk with my mother--in-law, something they do every time she's out. When they got back, they were on the path in front of the steps, when I heard the sound that makes a parent's heart stop; my son started screaming and crying- in the way that means pain. I ran outside, and met my mother-in-law as she was carrying my son across the porch to the door. Half his face was covered in blood.

They came inside and she set him on the couch next to my husband, who talked to him and calmed him down while I got the first aid kit and my MIL got my son's hat and coat off so we could see better what happened.

He had tripped right in front of the steps and hit his forehead on the edge of the first one. He's got a fairly nasty gash, but we've kept it clean and butterflied it shut, and he's totally fine otherwise.

It's just scary, that first time you see your kid bleeding that much, I guess.

I've felt really...just off, I guess...all weekend, even before that. I don't know what it is. I need a break. Or an attitude adjustment.

Poor kiddo. :( Ah, the resiliency of youth, though. He'll bounce back in no time. :)

I had a dream where I woke up to get ready for work this morning...then I woke up 5 minutes before my alarm went off. #trolledbyscumbagbrain

Oh MissCris, your poor child. I hope he is better.

I do know that when we love someone deeply, their pain becomes our own...

I know it even now, with my mother, that when I go through ups and downs, she goes through them along with me. It's not exactly fun, because then it becomes not just one - but two miserable people when I am miserable :D


Likewise, I had the experience of seeing my mother wounded at one point, and it was the most shocking, terrifying and heartbreaking feeling.


If only we could protect our loved ones from every harm in this world...

You're a good mom, Cristen :) I would be freaked out and unsettled too if I were in your shoes.

Also, I love you, CC, but it's always kind of a letdown when I get an e-mail that I have a new private message and then it's from you wanting my money...haha. #lovemeforme #iminaweirdmoodrightnow #devastatingplayofflosshangover #truefan
 
Look on the bright side ChandlerFan, at least it's better than if they had made it to the superbowl and then lost there. You'd have a much bigger let-down.
 
Dolly Parton turned 69 today,
still alive and kicking,

Actually, I would prefer a Super Bowl appearance to a non-appearance, even if they did lose in the Super Bowl. But I'm sure different people feel differently about that.

That's so scary. My son and Daughter have given me so many heart sinking moments. My son, ate pennies, got a toddler potty seat stuck on his head, we had to coat his head with Vaseline to get it off. One time he while I was at work and he rode his skateboard on his stomach and he flipped off and scraped his entire face. When he was about 7 months old he tried to walk, he fell and hit his head on the metal bar of his jumparoo so hard that all this snot came out. I was afraid and he started smiling and laughing.

My Daughter got her head caught in the banister twice. She also used to try to climb up her high chair. She used to like strip in the backyard and run around naked.

It's scary when they hurt themselves. Hope.he's doing ok.

Just think, he now has a head start on the other boys in town developing a collection of scars he can brag about. :D
 
So I'm thinking I could make a more modern sounding version of Scott Krippayne's "I'm not cool" with an electric guitar doing power chords in the background. Whataya think of a soundtrack for that song? Think it would play well at a youth service?
 
No only eagles prey...


I want to share this short true story:


"I want to delete my account for these few reasons:

1) I don´t want to pay to "talk" to faked and/or abandoned profiles.


2) Your site it´s not useful to meet real persons! No living people there are to interact with, by the way.


3) There´s not enough freedom "to search" the people with similar likes or interests. So, it is too randomized for my likes.


But thanks!




This site could be improved -I said- But Fakebook has stolen you some place on the market and you just purge abandoned profiles and make this interface more friendly (and open) to reach people around or abroad, in live real time.


Then "they" said:


"Can we change your mind, Antonio T?
It looks like you’ve made up your mind, but how about staying for just three more days? We’ll give you free Super Powers for that time, so you can see what we can really do for you.


Then I said "YES" (But I lied)


(Just to see what´s in there, additionally).

But I deleted it soon, few minutes later on."

;)
 
Have you ever done such a poor job grocery shopping, you realize you are going to have to go back every night the entire week?

I had that realization today. I didn't have everything I needed for tonight's dinner, so I only bought those items tonight. I just didn't have the energy to try and remember the ingredients for every other meal for the week.

On my way out, I just wanted to tell everyone "see you tomorrow!"

It might work...but I dunno. Honestly, it's something you're going to have to pray about. Well, don't pray about how to play it. lol. Actually, it probably wouldn't sound too bad if you did power chords in the background, get rid of the 80's/early 90's sound to it. Every youth group and every area is different. I know that the kids in my youth group would never listen to that song. We try do stuff that's been made after 2009. lol

In order to answer the second question, I'd have to ask what does a typical youth worship service for youth look like? What songs do you guys typically sing at youth group?

I really wish I could be of more help. But I also know how different youth groups and musical preferences can be.

Well... think of how it would sound if it were redone by Newsong. Or Kutless - not modern Kutless, old Kutless, back when they sounded good.
