happy tuesday, august 11, 2026

Hey everyone. Things are going good. I got a haircut this morning and went to the chiropractor. I'm at prayer right now. We are not praying yet. After this I'll go home and get a hair tie because I forgot one. I will eat at home if I don't want to go where the ladies are eating, but I do want to stop by Pizza Hut and use my rewards thing for the cinnamon rolls. I have another reward through T Mobile that I might use too. 

It's August. I guess the next time I see my mom will be Thanksgiving, but part of me wishes it was earlier. I just don't know what to do. I want to visit more often, but I'll want to bring the cats. That's always hard, but I just can't live this far and have my mom perish without spending some time with her. She never gets to go the coffee shop anymore. My Dad wouldn't understand that. Going to a coffee shop wouldn't make sense unless it's a stop before something else going on. So, I want to go there and take her to a coffee shop and she's gotta just come with no excuses. 

So then I'll go to work. After work, tonight, I have a Windsong Pictures board meeting. I have been working on the movie. I finished the rocket ship video and slideshow, I'll have Phil record his part soon. I think once I have the elements then I'll be able to start editing. Once I can get started, the process shouldn't be too bad. 

So yeah, that's that. See you later.

happy tuesday august 4th 2026


I will start putting the movie together this weekend. There is one more scene that we're going to film. It will be the rocket blast off. I think once I get everything together, the process will speed up. I need to record the narrative intro. 
So basically I'm going to take my time because for one, I want it to look good and for two, I do have other responsibilities. So, I will be working on it as much as possible. 


This Friday I will be talking about Psalm 4. David had trials that he had to rely on God to get him through. God is the safe haven we can run to when we're in distress.  Wouldn't you like to have this kind of faith? 

Pleasing God is way more rewarding than pleasing people. And because we please God, we can feel at peace knowing we are trying to be a humble servant of God.

Happy birthday Mom

Friends, today is my mom's birthday. She will be turning 81. 

My plans for today:

Today I'll be going to Target to pick up my order, put gas in my car and then going to work. I need to get gas before the gas tax gets reinstated. It will go into effect August 7th, 2026.

happy saturday

Friends, today was a little successful, but I'm looking forward to spending time relaxing tomorrow. I did record 3 songs at The Venue, but I don't think I'm happy with them so we will need to redo. 

I recorded all the songs I'm going be putting on this album-now I just need to work on mastering them . 

Then I need to record and master songs for a friend. I will need to wait until I edit the movie before I work on my next album. 

I'm really honestly looking forward to the day when my days are not so crammed and I can focus on my projects. 

I really miss the days when I only had a job. So, eventually, something has to be eliminated from my life. 

I have really been enjoying the extra visitors and comments on my YouTube channel.

what a day!

Friends, ok the live streams had some good aspects, but the format I had planned just did not work out so I have a strategy for the next live that I think will work out better. Today there has been so much waiting and frustration. Waiting to start the live, waiting for Phil to come home and I come home to find he mowed down my garden!

I will be making my sweet tea this morning.

happy thursday

Friends, this morning we filmed the lighthouse and picked up the movie footage so I can start editing the movie. I need to record a narration for the very beginning and another scene. I'm waiting for something to arrive from Amazon so we can film that scene. 

We're going to use the drone this evening for the beginning. 

I'm going to record my album this weekend. Sweet Tea and Psalms Friday morning.

happy wednesday

Hello friends, 

I don't have much to say today. I'm going to be working soon and that will be about it today. This Friday I'll be doing episode 3 of Sweet Tea and Psalms and we will be talking about Psalm 3. I will be singing Victory in Jesus since that was a request Edna made. I'll have to find other hymns to sing since we will need to learn April's request before singing that one. I'm not very familiar with it. 


They are interviewing Fauci and his role he played in the Covid-19 epidemic. His agency funded it. It did not get released from the lab. He did not disclose his role when his book was released. He did not tell the world his whole story.

happy tuesday

Friends, today was a successful morning. I was able to get a workout in and then coffee from Marathon. Then it was time to go to prayer. I'll go to work in a little bit. 

I will need to do a test run of Sweet Tea and Psalms soon to see how the audio changes fare. I might need to upgrade my webcam to keep with YouTube's settings.

happy monday

I had such a wonderful weekend. Not only did we get a ton of filming done, but I got to spend some much needed extra time with Phil with no serious agenda. We got to just enjoy ourselves. 

We missed the theatre premiere of Masters of the Universe so we scheduled Sunday afternoon as a date, 2 pm, and watched it on Amazon Prime. We had popcorn, drinks and candy. It was good. There is going to be a Masters of the Universe 2 and I'm looking forward to seeing She-Ra when it comes out. 

Because we were able to film Saturday and Sunday, my music video for Psalm 71 is nearly complete. 

We filmed The Great Galaxy Bake Off Bandits Friday afternoon. We have to film one more scene, but hopefully I can be given the footage soon and then I can start editing that movie. 

I'm looking forward to scheduling a recording session so I can finish my album. It will be in August so I'm thinking about reserving the first Saturday.

a good day and evening of filming



We successfully launched episode 2 of this series. It was a good session complete with singing Blessed Assurance. 


Next Friday, July 31st will be episode 3. It will feature Psalm 3 and a request of singing Victory in Jesus



We were successful and had a great turnout for this cute story. I think once everyone sees it together, they will understand more of how the process works. I'm actually really hoping I get to edit because there's a lot of features that I do that Michael doesn't and it really makes a difference on how the movie looks in the end.

today is filming day!

Hello friends, today is not only filming day with Windsong Pictures, but I'll be doing Sweet Tea and Psalms episode 2. 
Today I'll be talking about the Psalm and a little bit about how people seem to have an invisible list of criteria that you have to meet before they will answer your text. There is a 15 year old in the church that is very, very busy, yet still has the time to maintain our over 100 message streak. She tells me about her life and responds to what's going on in my life. She's better than most adults. Even when I had 3 foster kids, I still took the time to answer people. Imagine if God treated people this way. Imagine if God said, ahhh, I'm too busy to answer that prayer. I just really think that people need to shown that they matter. They need to know that someone is willing to listen. We need to show people the love of Christ-even people we don't know like cashiers and other workers. They are working so that they can make a living, but they are also needed to help us too. It would be very difficult to check out of a store if there are no cashiers. It would be very difficult to go to a restaurant if there were no workers. 

It will be very difficult to inspire others to be a Christian if they are not treated well. Let's be radical. Let's be kind! Let's show love to all!

happy thursday

I'm washing my workout clothes and then I'll be heading to the gym. They should be dry enough pretty soon. I'll do a workout and then head to work. I've been writing a new song. It's all about praising God when things are bad or good and giving your burdens to God. It can be very hard to do that-we have a tendency to want to "fix" everything ourselves and while that's not totally wrong-since we are humans we do need to do some of the legwork, but we can pray to God to help us along the way. It brings a sense of peace because we know that God is powerful. I think sometimes people think there are certain things you just don't bother God with or God is just this higher power that we believe in for salvation, but everything else is up to us, but this isn't just true. Yes, God is a higher power than we need to trust in, but we need to trust in him for everything, not just for Biblical needs.

happy wednesday

Friends, yesterday I was finally able to return to the gym, get a good workout, then go in the sauna for a few minutes. I have an update on my worship album coming out. It should be able to be recorded in August. 

Listen Here for an audio update. We had a really cool thunderstorm that I was able to record. 

 Also, I've been wanting to start getting to work earlier than normal. Since my sleep keeps getting interrupted, this has been rather difficult, but still, any time earlier is better. 

I did not join the ladies for lunch this time. I went to McDonald's. You can view the toy here:

updates are coming to the gym

Friends, I arrived to work today to see the counter that used to belong to the Light House Coffee Bar has been removed. 

That means the changes the owner has mentioned in the past are on their way to fruition.

happy sunday afternoon

I think I have found out what happened to James and Melissa. It's a very sad situation that I hope gets resolved quickly. I'm still coughing, but I'm looking forward to doing as much as I can at work and working out tomorrow. 

I have my intro video ready for this Friday. The dragonflies will be nice addition and I'll play my guitar while it's running. I should be healed by then so I will sing Blessed Assurance and Phil will play. 

Leading worship today was quite the struggle with my voice, but I made it. Luckily we have a forgiving congregation. 

Denise and Grace, and Adam, but mostly the girls, talked about their experience on the mission trip. It was very moving.
