monday night m…musing? menagerie? mumbling?

Which do you like better?  Does anyone use the word “menagerie” anymore?  Any way you slice it, this is a mash up (better?) of the thoughts from the day, which are varied and random.

1.  I’ve been singing this song all day.

Levi (my 15 year old son) was part of the worship team for the first time yesterday at midtown, and I asked him to sing lead on this song.  I’ll give you the backstory this week, but I had 2 reactions.  As the worship leader, Levi nailed this song!  As a dad, my heart was about to bust out of my chest.  I loved having my son help lead worship…

2.  Kim woke me up this morning at 8–not how I wanted to start my day off.  Some burly dude was dropping off a huge dumpster in our driveway.  Jorn Junod (pastor of Discovery Road Church and construction dude) is turning our garage into a master bedroom and bathroom.  Yep, Kim and I are moving out of the basement!

3.  It turns out that I am a hoarder.  Not the kind that you see on the tv shows (yet) but I’ve got some hoarder-tendencies.  God’s been dealing with me and my desire for stuff lately.  So as much as it pains me to do it, I’ve been thinning the closets and getting rid of things that I haven’t used.  That’s not the same thing as sacrificing things that I want in order to be generous.  But it’s raised some issues.

4.  It’s show week at the Sublett house.  Levi is in the high school musical (no, not that one).  The Pajama Game opens this week.  He says that he’s wearing his Elmo pajamas to school tomorrow to promote the show.  We’ll see…

5.  Big news on the Sublett Adoption front.  Josie will officially become part of Team Sublett this Friday at the Bellefonte courthouse.  Yep, she’s been living with us since October, but we’re signing her to a lifetime deal this Friday.  Rebecca Black is supposed to be playing the after-party.

I’ll probably expound on these things as the week goes.  What do you have lined up for this week?
