Busiest Unemployed Man
July 21st, 2009 . by CaryI know, I’ve used that title before. But really, I think I am. Let’s take a look at this week already, shall we?
Sunday was church – with all the activity that entails. Consider that I am a Deacon, I sing on the praise team and I help with communion, and you get an idea of how busy I stay just on Sunday. Sunday afternoon was spent trying to get some more configuring done on the new computer. Sunday evening I placed the third week’s worth of stuff on eBay for a friend – he’s selling off his life-long collection of models, collectibles, and excess HO scale railroad stuff. (by the way, the keyboard on this laptop is slightly difficult to get used to – couple that with my occasional bouts of dyslexia and my typing really slows down.) Sunday night, I finally got a chance to sit down and watch “Taking Chance” – which, if you haven’t done yet, you should. It was very well done, and Kevin Bacon really nailed his role.
Monday, besides being laundry and dishes day, I also revamped the railroad’s website – The Black Canyon Model Railroad Museum, Inc. I moved it off the cobbled-together site I had built and onto a WordPress platform. I like how it turned out, why don’t you swing over there and take a look? Let me know what you think.
Today I’ll be going over to my friend’s house to help box up, label, and ship the items that sold from last week. If you are interested in seeing what kind of stuff he collected over the years, take a look here.
Chat ya later…
Thank you for stopping by, In GOD We Trust, God bless you all, don’t buy or breed cats or dogs while homeless pets die (spay, neuter & adopt a pet, one by one, until there are none), Wear Red on Fridays, and support Warriors for Innocence!
Suck it up Marine, idle hands are the Devil’s workshop!! 😈
And that’s exactly why I keep busy – don’t need to give the devil any more openings than absolutely necessary!
Thank goodness we have church to get us through the hard times and keep us focused on what matters. You’ll get through this.
More than that, PCC, we have Christ in out lives to guide us. That’s what keeps us on the right path!
Just think of all the trouble you avoided by beeing so busy!

That’s kind of a “mixed feelings” thing there, Joe – you know, i used to enjoy “getting into trouble” but now, not so much. Too big of an example to set, mostly…
Thanks, Doug!
That makes TWO!
(12. I don’t make a very big impression on people unless I meet them in person, so I’m not surprised that he didn’t notice back then…) 🙂
