Coldplay (one of my favorite bands), in honor of starting their new tour, is giving away a free track that’s NOT on their latest album!
Download it here.
It’s called “Death Will Never Conquer”, and I wonder what church will be the first to play it as a culture-friendly hymn!
It was an absolute joy to serve 230 hungry people a meal and a smile. Some were grateful, some weren’t. My heart lurched each time a child came through the line and more-than-once I was near tears in gratefulness for what I have been blessed with in life!
My job today was “Shepherd’s Pie disher-outer”. I rocked at my job. I also rocked the hairnet all day too.
Pics from the day are here.
Today, 10 (yes, ten) 13-Line Ground Squirrels met their fate by refusing to catch the golden bb’s that were thrown at them at over 150fps.
Too bad for them!
Thanks to Jake and Rudy for helping make today’s hunt especially memorable. By the end of the hunt we had over 100-feet of hose stretched across the yard and placed it in more than a dozen holes to attempt to “flush” out these evil rodents.
After today’s slaughter, my Summer ground squirrel death count has reached twelve!
Stay tuned for further updates!
Got into Bluffton yesterday afternoon! So good to see my girls again after 9-days of separation!
Today we enjoyed the Ft. Wayne Children’s Zoo with Mom and Dad Garrett.
Tomorrow we have breakfast with Derek and Christin Carpenter and lunch with Grandma Garrett and then we’re off back towards home. We’re stopping for the night in Valpo at a hotel with a pool to enjoy some family-time before getting back to our crazy Summer schedule that is looming over us.
Before I lose consciousness tonight after an exhausting week of camp, I decided to fast-forward through some of the hours of DVR’d shows that were recorded while we were away. NBC’s “Baby Borrowers” was on the list immediately following “America’s Got Talent”.
Let’s just say that this show is ridiculous.
Obviously the producers have chosen couples that would “make good television” to attempt to care for a child for a mere 3-days and then take on the next-level of adolescent and continue on through senior-citizens.
The show views like an imaginary episode of “Captain Obvious”! Teens and babies that aren’t their own equals phrases like “this is tough” and “I’m stressed”. Watching the teens struggle through their first-night alone with the babies wasn’t even entertaining – it was disheartening.
I will probably give “Baby Borrowers” another episode or two before removing it from the DVR schedule.
