I need to start a business making presentation slides. Having crappy looking slides is like meeting your future father-in-law the first time and shaking his hand with a weak grip. How in the world is he going to bless your relationship when you press his hand with the strength of a toddler? DM me if you are interested!
The first Friday of each month my wife Christina makes 30 lunches for Lazarus House which is a shelter for people in need. It is a blessing to be able to give back.
Had my knee drained recently and the doctor asked me what we should call the sample before sending it off to the lab. I quipped, "Well, there's likely wine in there, so let's call it Chardon Knee or Pino Kneegio" ;p
My Out Of Office message today:
"I will be out of the office today remembering all those brave men and women who sacrificed for our freedom. God bless them, and may we never forget, take for granted, or destroy what they fought and died for."
My note to our boys tonight: "Mom and I celebrate 26 years on Friday. I hope you appreciate and are grateful for how special and rare that is. My prayer is the same for you and the girl you call your bride someday. Love you guys."
For all you @F1 fans out there:
- We have an otter in our pond named Lando
- Two chipmunks which chase each other around the house named Max and Lewis (back when Lewis had a decent car)
- Our youngest cat named COTA (Circuit of the Americas for newbies)
I was inspired by our pastor last night to make crosses and boxes for the widows our church supports. Anything is possible through Christ ... and wood #crossmanship
I have been experimenting with making boxes which showcase the cross. Future Etsy site to come. DM me if you are interested in having a custom box made. Varying shapes and sizes possible. #crossmanship
It hasn't rained for weeks, but it's supposed to rain all day for the Todd Beamer golf outing tomorrow. I said to my team this morning, perhaps the weather forecast is God's way of reminding us that we are there to honor Todd and the thousands who died that day and to think less of ourselves. Rain or shine, it will be a blessing to support his foundation.
Very blessed and humbled this Monday to be participating in the Wheaton Academy (WA) Todd Beamer golf outing. Our son Davis is a senior at WA. Todd famously said "let's roll" on Flight 93, where he and his fellow passengers gave the ultimate sacrifice to save countless others.
