go to ifilm.com to watch two wilco songs live. This is just so Sean can make fun of me. But seriously, you have to give props to the lead guitarist, Nels Cline.

We are off to Ohio for my Sister’s wedding. Suz and I are standing in the wedding and I’m playing a song. I’m so excited for her and Jav.

Scott posted this poem and it was so good, that I had to re-post it. Check his site out for a quick overview of who Oscar Romero is.
Prophets of a Future Not Our Own
It helps now and then to step back and take a long view.
The kingdom is not only beyond our efforts, it is even beyond our vision.
We accomplish in our lifetime only a small fraction of the magnificent enterprise that is God’s work.
Nothing we do is complete, which is another way of saying that the kingdom always lies beyond us.
No statement says all that could be said.
No prayer fully expresses our faith.
No confession brings perfection.
No pastoral visit brings wholeness.
No program accomplishes the Church’s mission.
No set of goals and objectives includes everything.
This is what we are about:
We plant the seeds that will one day grow.
We water seeds already planted, knowing that they hold future promise.
We lay foundations that will need further development.
We provide yeast that produces effects far beyond our capabilities.
We cannot do everything, and there is a sense of liberation in realizing that. This enables us to do something, and to do it well.
It may be incomplete but it is a beginning, a step along the way, an opportunity for the Lord’s grace to enter and do the rest.
We may never see the end results, but that is the difference between the master builder and the worker.
We are workers, not master builders; ministers, not messiahs.
We are prophets of a future not our own.

Ok, things have gone pretty well with the “Ish” cd. In two weeks we’ve sold 250+. People seem to be liking it, despite the fact that I hate the mix. So if any of you who don’t go to Riverview would like to buy a cd ($5 plus $1 shipping) email me at groovingdan la la la la la at yahoo.com but ignore all the “la la la’s” and you can purchese one via paypal. Paypal is super easy, free and secure to set up transactions with. Thanks!

So my site needed an update. I have never done any html or any kind of coding before, but just thought I’d play around with stuff on my site. Unfortunatly I forgot to save my Links and so have just been trying to find these off other people’s sites. So if I’ve had you linked before, or if you want linked, could you leave a comment with your url? Thanks.

Ok, sorrry to be such a downer on my blog lately. Needless to say this has been a weird week.
Open mic went pretty well on Tuesday, a lot of people came out and it was good to hear some people play their original stuff. When I got home that night, I started feeling sick. When I woke up I knew I was in for it. But Jaden and I drove to Akron to visit my fam. My dad was at the hospital but was doing decently well, eating, talking, which is good as of late. The first night I was there, Jaden didn’t sleep until 5am. The second night, he wouldn’t sleep without being on my chest. So I was exhausted on top of being sick. I felt that I didn’t really help my family out too much. Thursday my dad came home from the hospital. Things were ok. Friday Jaden and I were leaving, my mom tried to wake my dad up to say goodbye, but he wouldn’t wake up, we just thought it was the morphine. We found out later that he had pneumonia. Not good. But then today the doctors said that he was responding well to the antibiotics. So he might be home in a couple of days.
My sis also just called and told us that she and her man Javier have decided to get married this Saturday so my dad can marry him, which is very cool. Jav is a great guy and has been such a help with the family the past couple months. I can tell he loves Rachel so much.
All this to say that things have been up and down. There have been tears and laughter, care and anger, hope and fear. I also am trying to do as much of my job as possible. The church has been awesome about giving me time and space, but at the same time, I want to do my job, earn my keep. I feel a bit behind on some things and am excited to get back into music and together and relationships that I have put off lately. For now, it’s touch and go.
