What's up homies. It seems like some of you out there are still using Internet Explorer. You reaally reaaaally need to switch over to Firefox www.getfirefox.com. It's a much safer browser to use, and it has TABS for great justice! Seriously, I want to see the 49% of you that are on IE switch over to Firefox by next week. Fersure.

We FINALLY got our intro to the tract for the campaign on Friday...I'm such a ditz, I mean I was listening but, sin embargo como un idiota I went up to the brother after the meeting and asked for my allotment LOL
What can I say I'm kingdom zeal in heels =)
Still can't wait 'til it starts. Also I was thinking how we keep getting lessons and talks on loyalty, integrity, overcoming adversities etc.
with the example of Job more specifically.Through various studies of the Watchtower leading up to this Sunday's he's been mentioned numerous times, also the slave had it arranged so that we've already considered the book of job in our weekly reading.
Now with the campaign information being so specific it's really exciting to see how people will respond in the different territories. In my territory I feel as though naturally, people tend to be very passive/never or rarely rude even when not interested...but in general it's just an exciting time!
She don't know no lover,
none that I ever seen,
yet to her that ain't nothing
but to me, yeah me-
means everything......
Mike, Anberlin is playing here tomorrow! lets go baby!
I had a fun day out in service today. Worked with both my sister in laws, my cousin in law, and one of our landlords (the wife). It was really fun. And Tyler was off of school today, so he went out, and worked with my father in law, and a brother (late teens) who is really nice to Tyler. Oh, and Tyler went up to another brother to make plans with him for tomorrow....hilarious stuff to watch, a 7 year old making service plans with a 24 year old, hahaha.
aw, that's great!
I had a great day out in service last Thursday. 12 hour day, first of all. Good, long day.
During that day, I went to visit my Ecuadorian grandpa in a recovery center. He just had a knee replacement. He's 87 years old, so he's hurtin'. It's funny. He's always been invincible. Rarely sick. But he's been developing knee problems, and finally last year he had to stop playing Tennis. He loved tennis. :(
He was kind of upset about this. He said basically that he has to accept it as a thing of the past. So the brother and I explained (in spanish, of course) that this wasn't true. We shared Isaiah 33:24 (no resident will say I am sick), and that if he put Jehovah first now and forever, he could be running around playing soccer or tennis or whatever he wants! Then we reinforced the fact that Jehovah must come first with John 17:3.
My grandpa's reaction? Well, he said he really felt good when he went to the meeting in spanish (he went to see me give my talk). So we asked him if he'd want to start studying. He said YES!!! My grandma's been a witness since my dad was maybe 10ish (give or take) so maybe 45 years. All these years my grandpa refused to study/go to meetings. He said "I don't have time, pilarica!" He was too busy playing tennis and doing other things to put Jehovah first. Now, he has no other distractions, and he's going to learn about Jehovah.
I can't tell you how happy this made me! I almost cried as we left the recovery center. We start the study next Thursday. He also said 2 other significant things. 1) He can't wait to spend time with ME. 2) He told an elder in my old congregation that he's sorry he wasted so much time with other things.
I pray that Jehovah bless him and I. I need to do a good job so he can live with me forever. ..I'm tearing up now. Gonna stop. Glad you had a good day out in service! May Jehovah bless you in your ministry and family.
Oh my gosh Todd....that seriously almost made ME cry!!! That's SOOO awesome!!! I'm really happy for you, and your grandpa!!! I'm definitely gonna keep you and him in my prayers, and I know that Jehovah will really bless his decision to study. That is SOOOO COOL!!!!
Side thought.....a 12 hour day? Are you trying to kill yourself man? But in all seriousness....I'm so happy it was a good day. I know that will keep you encouraged for quite a while. :)
WOW! flomo that is awesome!!! You must get this related to your CO, it sooo has to be in like the yearbook or something!!
I am ecstatic for you and your family (Gramma must be giddy)!!
That's great news!! Your grandma must be so happy too! :)
Awwwww, this is great. I think I saw him @ your talk,wasn't he there?
This is definately Jehovah blessing your grandmother for her continued loyalty to him, I'm so glad I met her! =)
todd that's awesome i love your grandpa and this is such amazing news!! i'm sure pilar is going out of her mind with excitement too.
Todd, I spent all weekend at the assembly but this is the coolest experience I've heard (not that the ones there weren't exciting and great but this..). I'm so excited for you! That really is amazing.
It reminds me of the story in the last watchtower we did on Sunday (August 1st?)..you know the old people story section? It was about a sister who went for years and years without her husband in the truth and he finally decided to study and I got so teary-eyed reading it because I was so happy for her.
I thought about that too!!! It was like, 42 years later when he came into the truth, or something like that.
Yeah! That was so awesome. I wanted to find her and give her a hug.
OH WOW TODD! this is SO awesome!!!!
isn't it!? I can't wait for Thursday
let me know how it goes! this is the gramps thats all energetic right?
haha, yep!
BTW, I was invited to a wedding in Cali. But I think it's no-cal. :(
oh we're back! sweet!
Linguistics homework=essence of evil.
I thought I wanted to be a linguist for a few days too!
This is making me twitch.
I have to break words down into their smaller components and then define what these smaller parts mean, how they effect the word as a whole and give an example of the component used in another word.
for some reason this sounds appealing to me. I'm sick.
It's super interesting! But, it just takes forever and after doing one exercise of it I didn't feel the need to do two more.
so what happened on the office last night??
oh man... ohhhhh man
Does that mean it was a sex scene? LOL!
TELL MEEEEE!!!!!!!
Little Superstar!

OH MAN!! Chris and I were playing Lego Star Wars and we missed the office! i just saw the last hilarious 5 minutes. What happened with Jim and Pam?!?!
So there's a dilemma with Tyler, and I need some suggestions.
School is better, the bully kid is nicer, things should be good, right? Well, it's become very apparent that Tyler, being as loving as he is, wants to be friends with ALL the kids in his class...including the ones who aren't the best choices of friends (those were his teacher's word's, not mine). She's aware that he usually isn't the cause of the problems, but continues to be influenced by them, because he wants to fit in so badly.
He's good when he's with the good kids, and when he's with the not so good kids, he behaves like them. Easily influenced, to say the least. Adam and I have talked to him over and over about this, because ultimately it winds up affecting his classroom behavior, and he gets in trouble for it. We've brought up every point about friends, behaving, respect, etc....you name it, we've most likely gone over it with him.
I'm at a loss, and mentally, I can't continue to have daily discussions with his teacher about how he is around the other kids, his behavior, etc. We struggled with this last year too, and I have to figure out a way to turn things around....any suggestions?
Tell him that not fitting in with everyone is the cool thing to do! He can be goth-Tyler.
Really..this is tough. I can't even remember ever being in the frame of mind where I wanted to be friends with everyone but I can see where you could be easily influenced if you want to be friends with someone.
Are these kids going to laugh at him if he doesn't go along with whatever antics they're doing?
I swear..it wasn't my fault! It's the rails!
I know, it really was the rails this time! had some corruption that I had to fix. We shouldn't be getting so many errors now.
The good thing is, there's enough kids that ARE good, to where he won't be without friends if he deicdes to behave as well.
The kids probably laugh at thim, but they tend to be a little meaner than you'd expect. He's a really nice kid, and being mean isn't really his nature, and he's a little sensitive, so when they get mean, he gets upset. It's a really not good cycle.

Ok....the first one doesn't work.....but the second two are awesome.
How can I put an mpeg file on here? It's not working through imageshack.
I think #1 is still being stoooopid....at least from my computer. I dunno.
Ok, well if anyone wants to hear #1 (which is the only one giving me issues, and in my mind, is the funniest of the 3), EZ message me and I'll email you the attachment.

World Wide distribution. One month, the entire globe.

Great...So I may have torn carilage in my knee. Gotta go for an MRI next.
was that from the football game a few weeks back that you mentioned?
I bruised it up playing baseball in the spring and I was also doing squats at the gym, so I think those things did it. Playing football just worsened it.
The thing is, I can't go getting an operation done. I have no wife to care for the kids if I'm laid up.
aw man, i'm sorry. what about your parents, could your mom help out...in case there is surgery?
I suppose, but I live 15 miles away from them. It'd be a pain for her. I'll cross that bridge when I come to it I guess.
oh snap the lego star wars game is so fun!!

big news. good for you, man. be confident. when you sign the papers, sign BIG.
thanks, i'm not signing my life away yet, we're just going to put an offer in, but its still exciting.
whoa, nice!
the duplex??
no, this house like 3 blocks in the good direction from us went for sale. its going for less than everything in the area. It needs a little work (paint, floors) but it has huge potential
here, is the outside.
We'll probably ditch the painted brick sometime in the future.
