i cannot express today the feeling i have. this picture that i found sort of expresses it but not really. for the last ten years i have poured myself into this vocation, daring to believe that God, the very God of all creation, has called me, even me, to this work. along the way many have affirmed me in this journey, but i have continued to work for the ultimate affirmation, ordination as an elder in the united methodist church. and now i have it. after two grueling (and i mean grueling in every possible sense, really) days i recieved the call today that the board voted to recommend me to the annual conference for ordination as an elder. and as i have already said, i cannot even begin to express the emotion i feel with words like relief, joy and satisfaction. there will be plenty of time for me to reflect on this and i will have more to say about it as i do that reflecting, but today is really a day for celebrating for me, and for thanking those who have journeyed with me and s...

salivating...

think fresh delish burger! nothing at ALL like a K-boy. ;)
come back!! i've been coming to your blog every day for the past few days, hoping that you came back early or something. our schools are wierd and cancelled yesterday and today due to cold temps. i've actually had free time...but no new blogs to read!
it's only 8am but a burger sounds really good right now. :)
When you get back I have a blog question for you!? Yes, you did indeed inspire me to create my own blog world. It's way too addicting! By the way, enjoy the warm weather, it's snowing here, again, on top of the two feet of snow we already have!

welcome to the blogosphere! what questions do you have?
greg.
The first one I figured out (it was how do I get the site meter -found it and counting away at an awesome 12 total)!
I was also wondering about archiving, does this happen automatically, or is there something I should be doing so I don't have 15 differ. posts on my blog...? I don't want to delete them, do I? I'm so new to this whole world of blog!
Thanks for your help!
let's say you set it that you only want posts within the last week to be on the main page. if a post is 8 days old, it will automatically be archived. it can still be viewed by people, they just have to click on "older posts" or on one of the themes you have given it. for example, on my blog, if you click on poetry, you will be taken to a page that will show you all the posts i've labeled as poetry.
what i'm saying is that just because a post doesn't show up on your main page, it doesn't mean you've lost it. and you shouldn't delete it, unless you don't want anyone seeing it anymore.
hope that helps.
greg.
ps: have you blogged me yet?
