i HATE the fat lady

The Steelers better win the Superbowl.
And that's all i have to say about that.

so it is half time

Steelers 24, Broncos 3.
Needless to say, this is not the optimal situation for my team.
However, my team IS the Broncos, and we NEVER say die. Not until that final second ticks off the board.
(it was easier to remain upbeat into even the 4th quarter back in the Elway days...)

what's with the weather???

Snow flurries one day, rainy the next, sunny all day with high of upper 40's the next...

It's like God is going through a mid-life crisis! Except, of course, that since He's eternal, he will never reach a point that is the middle of His life. And even if He did, He's God, so he wouldn't go through a mid-life crisis- He knows everything, right? So there'd be no point to any mid-life crisis, since He knows how everything will work out just fine. And besides, usually mid-life crisis' have to do with wanting to reclaim youth, being anxious about getting older, etc. And since God is already older than anything else and at the same time in His youth since He has a never-ending existence still before Him, then He would never feel any of those mid-life feelings anyway.

Okay, crazy I know- but if you really stop to think about this line of thinking- well, it makes my brain hurt. How can someone who always has been, be old OR young? And at the same time, how can they NOT be either of those things? How can infinity exist, anyway??? Aaaaaahhhhh! Too much, too much... rocking back and forth now....

 

Basically, I'd just like a little consistency in the weather. That's all. Oh wait, I live in the Midwest. I am asking the impossible.

(except- nothing is impossible with God, because he is all-powerful... and if He's all-powerful that means there is no limit to what he is capable of. So if He's all-powerful and still making the Midwest the weather schizophrenic of America, then how can I argue? Except Lot argued. And God changed His mind. But did He really change His mind or since He already knows everything, did He already know that Lot was going to argue and so said what He said in order to make Lot argue? Maybe the point was that Lot needed to argue, not that God changed His mind... Aaaahhhh! My brain my brain!)

 

I'm glad God gave us brains that we don't understand (let alone use) but about 10% of, aren't you? Imagine if we had access to all of it, what a horrendous thing that would be- the questions coursing through my brain now are little, but if I could use ALL my brain, my ponderings would increase exponentially, and THEN what horrid pain I would bring upon myself as my brain overloaded and fried! I'd be stuck in a corner rocking back and forth forever... (forever? Didn't we just talk about that?.... really thought we'd just discussed that.)

I am a bad, bad blogger

But that is mostly because I want to be a better blogger. You see, I have logged onto my blog 3-4 times since my last post, but have spent the time trying to "figure out" things before actually posting. And then, I run out of time, and I never actually write anything.

 

I am mostly trying to "figure out" html stuff. I have never had the chance to learn ANYTHING about html, but I am intrigued by the possibilities that exist for someone who actually understands html. So, I have successfully figured out how to add links to other websites on my sidebar - see them? (now, I haven't yet worked out how to change the font, size, or color of the links list, but hey- baby steps!)

 

Recently, my "figuring out" efforts have involved trying to understand how to link my posts to another blog or comment... I'm close to that, I just have to add some text to the html template and start experimenting. But "figuring out" takes time, and a not-dead brain. Alas, right now in my life, those two requirements don't often happen concurrently. L

 

So, I will endeavor to try to write something as soon as I log in - BEFORE I start looking "behind the curtain". 

 

And, just so you all know, this is the second time I've written this post- the first time I actually logged on and when I tried posting it, nothing doing. Who knows why? But I lost the post. So now, I am using the "email a post to your blog" option, which gives me less control but at least seems to always work! I was tempted just to go on to something else (I hate trying to re-write things I've written), but decided I needed to practice some discipline and DO SOMETHING if I want it done! So- I am going to post a blog today if it takes me a hundred re-writes!!! *grin*

 

Merry Christmas (a little late) and Happy New Year!
