Asa Montgomery Hayes came into the world Monday night. His oxygen levels were low, so they did some test to find his heart is wired wrong. They transported him to Nashville. Today they did angeoplasty today to enlarge the hole in his heart so the blood would circulate better. His oxygen level is up now and he’s stable. They will …
Coming to you from my new computer
I’m on my new computer! I really love it. It’s small, light and I’m watching a Frasier DVD as I type! Well, I’m typing and watching. This little Averatec is nice. However, it still heats up as much as a large laptop. I’m fighting off a cold or something. I haven’t been feeling well, but I’m better today. I’m leading …
Saturday in the House
No, it’s not Saturday in the park and it’s not the 4th of July. It’s Saturday in the house, 21st of August. 😉 We slept in, grocery shopped and now, late in the afternoon, I blog. Oh, not to forget reading through 60 ACRW emails. Sunday morning I’m preaching tomorrow so I need to get prepared. I have to write …
Hurrican Charlie
Rain, wind gusts and a few light flickers. Hurrican Charlie passed north of us and we experience no more trauma than a good rain. We waited until about 6 p.m. to decide if we wanted to board up. We watched the news, judged the rain and wind and decided to batten down the hatches just in case. Turns out we …

Lambert’s Code is developing into it’s own story – the writing a little different than Lambert’s Pride. Since the …
Last Day, New Day
My first day at Harris was October 1986. Almost eighteen years ago. Today was my last day. It isn’t amazing to think that part of who I am today was fashioned by my time at Harris, by the people and customers I met. By the trials and struggles.We are all shapes and shadows of our world. There’s no way we …
In The Fire Conference
Our fourth summer conference concluded last night. I say last night cause it’s 2:15 am on Sunday, August 1. In The Fire, the conference formerly known as One Thing was awesome. As always. God is so faithful, so good. I’m tired, very tired. This conference required a lot of labor for me. I sang on the worship team and spoke …
Software Tech by Day, Writer by Night
I resigned my job of many, many years. Tony and I finally decided it was time. We prayed and talked, talked and prayed. We felt it was the Lord’s time. Let me tell you about the Lord’s timing. I’ve been in the same large office for almost five years. When the company’s structure changed, when I went to three-quarter, then …
