I have a very inspirational blog brewing in my head but I can't seem to sit down long enough to allow my mind to work. Maybe that's my problem. I'm always multi-tasking and therefore all the good stuff in my head never gets to come out on this journal of mine.

Anyhow … look for a great post in a few days about people that I consider heroes in my life. I recently heard a Sara Groves song that has inspired so much thinking and pondering. I'll fill you in soon enough. Until then enjoy this mindless chatter.

Tara tagged me and I am just so happy she finally has internet again. I mean come one who doesn't have internet for a couple of days … it's like she lives in a third world country or something. Come one now guys!

1. The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post, the player then tags five people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read the player’s blog.
4. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.
