Will Rogers Museum

Today, my mom, sister, neice, nephew and my 2 youngest cousins all went to Claremore to see the Will Rogers Museum. It's changed a lot since I was last there (probably my neices age). I remeber a tiny building, they have definately added on to it a lot. I think the world today could use another Will Rogers.

Spring Break

I kicked off spring break with a men's breakfast at Trinity Baptist Church this morning. A great time of fellowship. I am really liking this church.

Facing the Giants

"Facing the Giants" is an incredible movie. If you haven't seen it, you need to go rent it. The church I'm going to here in Afton hosted a community showing of it sponsored by the ministerial alliance. I can't even begin to tell you how much this movie ministered to me personally. The story is about facing giants in your life and letting go of your fears. I can't say much more without giving away the plot. Oh, and it is a football movie too!

it's official

I went to see the doctor today. First time I've seen this particular doctor, but he seems to be very cool and has a great bedside manner. I was diagnosed with major depression, had some lab work done and received an RX. I am looking forward to the changes/improvements that should be coming to fruition in my life now.

counseling

I've decided I really need some counseling. I've got an appointment with a medical doctor, but I'm also looking at talking to someone from my church here in Afton. I'm tired of being anxious and depressed, most of which I know is caused by my work environment. Then there's the bankruptcy. Today was probably the least stress free day in 2 1/2 weeks, but somehow I think that something is wrong with my life, when I am constantly mentally exhausted.

God's encouragement

God never ceases to pour out His love and blessings on us. In church this morning, Pastor Bill preached from Dueteronomy 28. It was such an encouraging sermon and very much needed since I don't seem to be doing much of anything correctly these days.

happy day

Today we threw my sister a birthday party. She's turning 40. Although she did get a few gag gifts, her gifts were pretty much practical ones. My neice and nephew really make me look forward to the times when I go to Tulsa to visit.
