Chasing the Wind

News. Faith. Nonsense.

Sleeping Late

Sleeping late on a Tuesday morning is wonderful. Everybody should try it sometime.

Artisan Renovations is coming over this morning to install… a doggy door. This is way too small of a project for them, but the rest of the renovations have hit a little snag. The doggy door has to be in before my son heads to college.

Patch is gonna love it. Five years of being indoors, he loves to go out on the patio, but hates it if you close the door behind him. Now he’ll be able to go as he pleases.

Sort of like me. I could go back to bed if I please. I won’t be into work until 10:00am. *zzz*

    Now I’m playing video games and drinking a diet coke.

    When you first started reading blogs, did you ever think it would be this interesting?

    Dang it, they’re here early. Now I gotta go to work.

    Wait for me, I didn’t get a diet coke. 🙂

    Did you get high score in your game?

    How is Patch liking the doggy door?

    You could have gone into work late – – just because they were there doesn’t mean you had to go in

    Hehe. I was playing Ultima Online. There is no score. I worked on my virtual blacksmithing skills. 🙂

    And I’m waaay too busy at work right now to skip much, I’m still working OT until probably the end of August. Which really bugs me until the paycheck is deposited and makes me say, “WHOA DUDE THAT’S AWESOME!”

    Patch and the doggy door? That’s a post in itself. Maybe tonight I’ll get it written up. 🙂

About Me

Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.

Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”

If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.

Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.
