This Little Piggy...

...Went to the podiatrist. My left foot's second toenail was removed today after having an ingrown toenail for 6+ weeks. Removed!! I'm gonna miss you, l'il guy. <*sniff*>

KC Family Weekend Plans

Alright, I have more information concerning the winter KC get-together. The KC plans are mostly set up. Dec. 29-31. We are still tentative on a hall for Friday night Bible study, but there will most likely be one. Church, potluck, dance and sports will all be at the same place, the Lee's Summit Recreation Center, same as the hall for the dance last year. The dance is an international theme, but if you already have a costume, then it should be okay (we'll call you "American"). Kazahkstanian outfits (i.e. Borat) will be considered questionable in taste. There will be sports on Sunday from 10-2, and of course, Monday is the holiday, so I'm sure people will be hanging out then, too. Contact us or the Milliches if you have any further questions!

Random Thoughts

I haven't done a stream of consciousness blog entry yet, so here goes:

  • It has already been three weeks since the Feast, yet I feel like I'm still learning daily...
  • My Chiefs are finally starting to pull it together. Will they show up this week? I got to go to last week's game against the Seahawks, and all I can say is at least we're entertaining.
  • It's crazy the things you notice when you're not involved in something. It's even more nuts how blind we are when we're knee-deep in a situation. However, it's the fast track to wisdom and knowledge if we can learn and grow from both.
  • I think music is one of the coolest gifts from God. I can jam to just about anything. And I really love it when a striking chord change sends goose bumps up my spine.
  • Does anybody else notice the same kinds of pointless minutiae that I do?
  • When I was young, I just tried to pass the time until the next time I could have fun. Now I find that contentment is a great gift... Quiet moments by yourself, noticing the beauty of a tree, the night sky, the way the shadows play on the ground. Being thankful for all that I have. Being willing to give it all away in a heartbeat (okay, that part will probably be harder said than done, but still...).
  • I drew Homer Simpson will his head back drooling on my markerboard at work this week. It still cracks me up.
  • When will this election junk end already?!?

Well, there you go. 10 minutes in the mind of Mike Keesee. Have a great Sabbath!
