November 30, 2010 - Christmas Pictures

Today my family went to the beach to take our Christmas pictures. Our little one loved it. We hope that everyone likes our pictures this year... they certainly took a lot of preparation... but it was worth it.

I have lost some weight recently. I now weigh about what I did when my wife and I were married. It feels good. I have been eating plenty of fruits and vegetables and I have been jogging. That seems to help a lot. On Thanksgiving, I participated in my first 5k run. The Turkey Trot in Clearwater, FL. I am hoping to participate in other events like that in the future. By next year, I want to be able to run the 10k.

I am still going to donate 50% of any royalty check which I receive in 2010 to Ronald McDonald House Charities in Tampa, and I have about one month to decide which charity to donate to for 2011. Please remind your local library, school, or church that they can purchase my books on Amazon.com and www.lulu.com.

Thank you for following my blog.

Sincerely,

January 22, 2010 - My fourth class through Liberty University

I have just started my fourth class through Liberty University. The History of Christianity II. I have the same instructor as I had in part I, so I am really looking forward to a great class.

I am still waiting to hear some news about that news article. I will let you know if or when it is published.

For those of you who don't know yet, I am donating 50% of my author royalties to the Ronald McDonald House in 2010.

Also, Baby is a little more than seven months old now. She is adorable.

I am working on another poetry book, but it may be a little while before I get it published because between school, work, family, and church, there is hardly any time left for recreation or for writing.
