Flash - Back

Well.. being that we have a new president now in the Oval Office..and I am sure everyone is excited and wondering what is going to happen next.. I wont make any blog about it.. but I would like to blog about days in the past..

I was on my "face-book" account and I ran into some old friends from days of the big hair and parachute pants. It was pretty cool seeing and hearing from alot of past friends..

They really love to hear that "good-ole" Lonnie Love is now a Minister..
The one thing they all keep saying is.."You were funny"..

Can't Get To Heaven Dunken A Basketball

Today was the first Game of our Upward Basketball and Cheerleadng season.. and over all I believe it was a great first day.. I personally want to thank all who are involved in this tremendous ministry..

I Do believe that THIS generation is going to change the world!!!
Because Upward is about changing lives for Christ..

our goal is simple..
Encourage Every Child That He/She Is A Winner
Introduce Them and Their Family to Jesus Christ
Connect Them To A Church..

Prety simple isn't it.. and they say a "child" can't lead

Best Line Ever...

Listen carefully to the last line of this video clip!!!

Behind The Eight Ball

Ever heard that expression "behind the eight ball"... I always wonder what that mean..

Here you go...

Meaning:
A difficult position from which it is unlikely one can escape.

Origin:
From the Eight Ball version of the game of billiards, which is played on a pool table. The balls are numbered and must be potted in order. The game is forfeited if a player's cue ball hits the (black) eight ball first. A 'behind the eight ball' position leaves a player in imminent danger of losing.

Relating to pool as it does, it is no surprise that the expression is American. It dates from the early 20th century - the earliest citation I can find is from the Ohio newspaper The Marion Star, May 1916

This past two weeks I have found myself "behind the eight ball"..
Seems like no matter how hard I try.. I can please everyone..
and honestly..
Some of things that were said to me are pretty hurtful.. but you know me.. I have to keep "being the life of the party"!!

To bad when I get home the balloons and streamers are all gone.....

Roast Beef - Pork and Chicken..

Hello good folks..
Well it has been a few days since my last post.. So I thought I would entertain you with my amazing news from last night..

To make it fun lets go by time.. shall we..

Monday-
2:15pm - Landon is watching Scooby - Doo in my bedroom and we both fall asleep.. Alex is taking his nap and Brady is playing the Wii..

3:00pm - I wake up and decided to put some cloths in washer.. but first I will take a piece of chicken from the crock pot.. it smells so good!!!

3:05pm - Something doesn't feel right as I head down to the basement.. I cant swallow.. (oh no here we go)

4:00pm - I tried for almost and hour chicken still caught.. call Cathy she is on her way home..

4:30pm - Head to the ER again...

5:30pm - Head upstairs at the hospital to the surgery floor.. Same team as last time in Sept.. they remember me.. Jeff (the "gas man") starts to laugh..

6:30pm - They wake me up.. and the chicken is out..

I found out that I have to go back for surgery on Feb 2 to have my esophagus stretched.. that should make for a fun Monday..

The End
Ps.. Why titled it Roast Beef - Pork and Chicken
they were the three major meats that got caught
