I’ve been feeling pretty good lately. I think I did a good job setting boundaries by not saying yes to more activities than I could handle. I have a plan to finish my National Board stuff and, if all goes well, I think I can pass it. I’ve also been getting a bit more sleep Read More
I’m not majorly stressed feeling right now. I went to bed at like 7:00 yesterday because I was so exhausted. It feels kind of lame to be going to bed so early on a Friday night. Anyway, it seems like everything has been piling up in my life and I’m not really digging it. (Heh Read More

It was a home-town Italian bistro where families and teams would meet after sports games or after long bike rides. Read More
Okay, so I said I’d post the link to the still life drawings my students did when they were up on our gallery, so here they are! You can click on the smaller pictures to enlarge them, which I think does them so much more justice. These are all begining Art students and their progress Read More
I usually don’t make New Year’s resolutions. They always seem so cheesy and the people around me never seemed to keep them. But, then I thought about my life and things I’d like to improve on and maybe accomplish. So, here’s my list (in progress) of New Year’s Resolutions: – Get out surfing at least Read More
2 Corinthians 6:1-13 1Companions as we are in this work with you, we beg you, please don’t squander one bit of this marvelous life God has given us. 2God reminds us, I heard your call in the nick of time; The day you needed me, I was there to help. Well, now is the right Read More
