Don't Hate Me




Okay, so don't hate me. It occurred to me the other day that alot of people may actually like the apps that are available in Facebook. That means that some of you have been very kind and decided to even include me in the fun of Facebook's application world, and for that I would like to extend a real "thank you."

If you have sent me and ap invitation, I probably owe you an apology, because I probably didn't accept your invitation. Now you may be wondering why I chose not to accept your invitation to become part of a worthy cause, or join you in a fun game, or perhaps work hard at discovering my true top friend, but the truth is, I'm in a dilemma. I find some of the apps overwhelming, some useful, some fun and some of them mind numbing (but probably not the one you sent.)

How does one solve such a dilemma? Easy. You do nothing at all. Therefore they collect into one location. Currently I have received somewhere over 216. I hope I haven't offended you by not responding & I certainly hope you understand. I figure there are some things in life you have to say no to, and so far, Facebook Apps are it. Who knows, I may add a few one day.

So for fun, how many Facebook applications do you have?

A little update!



1). Rach is doing well and we are in the 14th week of pregnancy! And by "we," I mean all of us: me, Rach, and the baby. It's been hard on me. Having to eat for 3 and continue the normal routines. It's like I'm climbing a mountain - only with a pregnant lady :)
2). I'm reading a good book by John Eldredge called Walking with God. It goes well with another book I'm reading called Letters by a Modern Mystic. It's by Frank C. Laubach.
3). I've been thinking about the nation as a whole lately. So many people with so many opinions. I'm continually intrigued by Jesus and his lack of involvement in politics. Not sure what that means for me yet. I do know that I am glad the election is over. I also know that I've grown tired of reading about all the people ready to "flee to another country" if McCain or Obama were to win. I think that is ridiculous. "For there is no authority except from God, and the authorities that exist are appointed by God. Romans 13:1"
My faith has never been in a President, but rather in a King from another Kingdom.
4. A big shout out to my friend Todd Wright is in order for his great news! Todd has recently had one of his songs off his new CD entitled All The Freed get picked up by SongDiscovery. Very cool news. Very excited for Todd and Kristin and their family as it is so evident God is doing some awesome things in their lives. You can hear all about his news here if you're so inclined.
5. I forgot to call my dad on his birthday. Yep, I'm a loser. Sorry Dad. Happy Birthday (Belated) Dad, Rach and I miss you tons!
