    The Friday Muse – Home On The Horizon

    January 13, 2017 /

    San Francisco was never her favorite place. She might have called it home, but it wasn’t in her heart to name the City a place close to her heart. The weather was too cold, the prices were too high, and there was something in the air – something amiss – that always gnawed at her consciousness. She wasn’t sure if it was an omen or some kind of psychic ability she unknowingly possessed, but she always felt San Francisco was burdened by evil. Sure, crimes were constantly committed in the city. But that was no different than any other city. Cram 8 million people into such a small area of…

    When A Calling Won’t Leave Us Alone

    October 3, 2016 /

    Have you ever had something eat away at you so profoundly that you weren’t sure you’d make it another day? A tug, a pull, an outright consuming of your very spirit? A calling, perhaps? When my wife and I first picked up everything and traveled to San Francisco back in 2013, we did it to help start a church plant. By the time we left San Francisco two years later, we were a bit confused as to why we had even moved there to begin with. San Francisco was definitely a calling. God opened doors – miraculously – and got us planted smack dab in the middle of one of…

    Letting Go To Reach Out

    September 19, 2016 /

    The last year and a half has been rough for me. Between personal and business matters, life has felt like a chaotic storm. I’m finally coming out of the haze, and there’s lessons I learned during my time in the eye of the storm. Valuable lessons. Most who read this blog know I don’t care for being back in Arizona. Stepping out in faith to move to San Francisco was rough. It was even harder – for me, anyway – to move back here to Arizona. Ultimately, I didn’t want to. But when God calls you somewhere, you go. I don’t want to get swallowed by a whale, nor do…

I haven't been to a movie in months. Going to the I haven't been to a movie in months. Going to the theater is probably one of the things I have missed the most since the quarantine began. Once I heard Fat Cats in Gilbert was open once again, I decided I needed a night out with myself, even if it's to see a movie I already saw months ago -  Jumanji: The Next Level. (I also got a haircut! 😄)

Some days seem harder than others to get through. Some days seem harder than others to get through. Yesterday, my brother and I (and my son) worked on both of my cars from 8am to 1030pm. I am grateful to have two vehicles, but both of them have been on their dying breathes for the last 6 months now, and it's everything I can do to keep one or the other running enough so I can just get to work every day. Yesterday consisted of a new radiator, thermostat, A/C recharge, power steering pump adjustment, hose replacement, battery replacement, and multiple trips to AutoZone. Both cars still have issues to be resolved - and some issues that cannot or are not worth resolving. I am exhausted and hoping to be able to save some money soon - instead of spending it on car repairs - so I can get a more reliable car and not have to do this every other weekend. 😔
