Chasing the Wind

News. Faith. Nonsense.


The Crud

The Crud

Starring Michael in his first full feature length flu. Rated PG, children shouldn’t come anywhere near this man. Parents ought to stay away, too.

Epic motion picture. It’s called “epic” because hours go by and nothing seems to happen. In fact, I think I’ll go back to bed now.

  1. Have you been taking those Vitamin “C” tablets I got for you???? I’ll be there shortly with couch drops and a hug, that should help!

  5. You too?? I’m home with it today. Hey, maybe we can compare fevers.

    I’m thinking it’s in retaliation for the “flu shot” post.

  7. You couldn’t pay to take the flu shot. It’ll melt my brain.

  8. Michael,

    First of all sorry to hear you were sick, I didn’t miss you at work this week, I really never miss you. I am in Midland Texas today, Friday, I took off Thursday and will be back in the office on Tuesday, notice i didn’t say back at work. Michael Hearn is not up set with your bid tab, he is just upset with the Task force management if you know what I mean. We still have an open lunch date so let’s try to get together next week if you are over the Flu. You may ask what the H— is Jack doing in Midland Texas? I am asking the same thing. Betty wanted to visit her Mom and Dad, and in a momment of waekness I said Okay, so see there even crabby Jack has feelings.

    So get well and I see you at work when ever, or make that our place of employment.

    God Bless and get you well.

    Jack

    PS Why doesn’t this have spell check?

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.
