JS Online: Bible study policy raises ire Every Tuesday last school year, Lance Steiger took a Bible to the basement of his dormitory at UW-Eau Claire and led a small group of friends in a discussion about a particular chapter or verse. Steiger, a resident assistant and a junior at the time, said he was never told he could not lead a Bible study in the dorm where he worked helping students adjust to college classes and campus life.
Listening to: “You Love To Sing” by Copeland Today is just for me to spend some time by myself. Ana and Carissa are gone for the day and nobody else is around. I’m just spending the day listening to music and doing small projects around the house. I had a really great weekend. Some friends were over on Friday night and we played some video games, drank some booze and ate some really good pizza.
This is from an email from my dad. I’ll just let you read it. Hi, Everyone, As most of you know, approximately 4 years ago, Linora was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins Lymphoma. Treatments have consisted of chemotherapy, radiation, and a stem-cell transplant. Because none of these treatments produced a remission, her last option was a bone marrow transplant. However, in order for the transplant to succeed, the lymphoma had to be brought under control with high-dose chemotherapy.
I don’t have much news to report, other than Mom went back to the hospital again and now the doctor wants to have a “family meeting”. If it’s like the last family meeting then it’s not a good thing.
Check this out! It’s one of those neat optical illusion thingies you usually get in the email. This one actually worked for me. Damn cool illusion
I can’t improvise on the guitar like I can on the piano. I can play chords and I can play along with others, but I often have to capo in order to keep up. I don’t play it as often as I should. I have a great guitar that I bought from a good friend of mine and I love to play it. I just need more time.
Listening to: “Conclusion” by Keih Jarrett So I’m winding down a long week by relaxing to some cool music via Pandora. If you’ve not had a chance to play around with it yet, you should give it a try. You enter an artist or song that you like and it creates a personalized radio station for you. You get to rate the songs and it will tailor the station to your tastes.
I don’t want to start preparing. I don’t want to think about what’s happening but it’s getting closer and it’s eating away at me. I don’t sleep well anymore and I’m constantly dealing with an upset stomach. I called her tonight and she sounded so tired and so out of it. She didn’t even recognize me right away. We didn’t talk long because she needed her rest because the nurses keep waking her up.
This weekend should be a lot of fun. Some good friends are coming in from out of town and we’re all looking forward to sharing some memories, laughs, and some fine whiskey. (or soda). I’m excited.
The bathroom’s almost done. It’s been painted and there just needs to be one last thing done; putting some sort of cover to fill the gap where the tub meets the floor.
