The Debate Is Not Over

Random Thoughts
Those crisp fall nights are finally starting, and it’s only a matter of time before I can start having a crackling fire going. I used to really care about baseball, but I haven’t followed it much over the last few years. Still, this is utterly amazing. I don’t think the Hokies are very good. I…

April Stuff
School Two weeks and a day! That’s what I have left of school. I am currently trying to survive my internship (preceptorship) and it’s going well. I’m a little tired but that was to be expected. Working 12 hours shifts is tough but I’m learning a lot and love the job. Taking on a full…

This and that
Things have been moving pretty quickly since the beginning of the year. It was really difficult getting back into the swing of things at work – very tough when you’ve been off a week and a half. I really enjoyed our time off, so it made it that much worse to have to go back…

Cold Weather Approaching
It’s finally starting to get somewhat cold around here. I don’t like 78 degree weather when I’m preparing to eat Thanksgiving dinner and shopping for Christmas presents. I think the high today was around 50 which is getting closer to what I like this time of year. Is it too much to ask for holiday-type…

Gulf Coast Prayer
So it turns out the entire Gulf Coast needs prayer, not just New Orleans. It really looked as if New Orleans had escaped as the hurricane didn’t do as much damage as many had feared. However today one of the levees broke, and currently 80% of the city is underwater. 80%! I can’t imagine it.…

Nawlins Prayer
We’re praying tonight for the folks about to get hit by Katrina. New Orleans and the entire Gulf Coast in that area including Alabama and Mississippi are in the path of a devastating category five hurricane, only the fourth to hit the U.S. since 1900. May God be with them.

It’s not the humidity, it’s the heat
It’s so hot today. How hot is it? It’s so hot, I saw a robin dunking his worm in Nestea. But seriously, what is up with the heat? All of our plants are dying, and it’s like an oven when you walk outside. Make that a sauna. When it’s 100 degrees outside, does it really…

It’s not the heat
More hot and humid weather today as we spent a great deal of it outside at a picnic. This weather pattern we’re in right now is crazy. We just get pounded with fierce storms on a daily basis with plenty of heavy downpours, lightning, and thunder. Jack absolutely loves it.

God is bowling
Ever slept through hours and hours of pounding rain, lightning, and thunder? Neither have we. Last night we had possibly the greatest thunderstorm ever, and that’s saying a lot coming from someone who’s lived in Florida previously. I can’t be certain, but the storm appeared to last at least five hundred hours. In between buckets…
