I just returned home from this years’ men’s retreat put on by my church. Okay, it’s not strictly my church or it wouldn’t be much of a retreat. Can one person really enjoy teaching himself new things from the Bible? Stonebriar Community Church is the organization I chose to be included in their membership. Therefore,… Continue reading The 2016 Stonebriar Men’s Retreat is in the Books as Another Winner

There is at least one advantage to living a non-routine life
God calls some folks to live ordinary lives. He ordains them to be accountants because they like working with numbers and helping people keep their taxes straight. He makes some to enjoy playing with Dremmel tools in victims’ mouths so they’re dentists their entire working lives. Farmers love working the soil and watching plants and… Continue reading There is at least one advantage to living a non-routine life
Can an Old Country Bumpkin Really Succeed Today?
The more I attempt to try new things the more I’m convinced I just need to find a team of folks who know what they’re doing. Case in point: I recorded my first Facebook Live event last week. I decided to try to get more attention to my crowdfunding campaign by doing this new way… Continue reading Can an Old Country Bumpkin Really Succeed Today?
Military Bootcamps Have Age Restrictions for a Reason
I never enlisted into military service when I was younger. Now, I’m pretty sure I’m “over qualified” to do so. I say that because they have age restrictions in place to protect the enlistee and the government agency in charge. Very few 55 year olds can withstand the physical rigors of eight weeks of bootcamp… Continue reading Military Bootcamps Have Age Restrictions for a Reason
Would Somebody Please Tell Me What Day it is Today?
Is it just me or has anyone else has lost track of what day it is? Part of my problem has to be the crazy work schedule I have to maintain just to maintain my budget. I just completed another midnight run to Memphis, Tennessee and back this weekend. I got two good hours of… Continue reading Would Somebody Please Tell Me What Day it is Today?
What is up with these kids’ parents today?
It could have been me this Sunday. I was the guy who accepted a drive to Memphis, Tennessee that left at midnight Friday. My budget was yelling at me again after I sat around Tuesday through Friday with no work. I’m not complaining, just showing you what the life of a temporary truck driver is… Continue reading What is up with these kids’ parents today?
Okay, I Admit it. I’m OCD.
July plus Texas equals HOT! It’s a simple equation every Texan lives with. My Michigan bones still have enough permafrost in them that I appreciate the heat when I first go into it. Hydration is key to survival. In an attempt to stay out of the heat I went for a run about ten in… Continue reading Okay, I Admit it. I’m OCD.
It Ain’t Easy Being the Pre-THE Wade Webster These Days
I recently got a notice someone tagged me in a photo on Facebook. When I checked it out there was some dude in the picture that didn’t look anything like me. Apparently his name is also Wade Webster. I left a comment that he wasn’t THE Wade Webster, me. He’s that Wade Webster, him. I… Continue reading It Ain’t Easy Being the Pre-THE Wade Webster These Days
This is where I’ll likely be in 25 years
I’ve seen a lot of stuff recently about setting goals. Much of it revolves around seeing where you’ll be in twenty five years. The logic stems from the idea that if you can think something then you can achieve it. Ask Mitt Romney how well that works, or Michael Dukakis, or anyone else who ran… Continue reading This is where I’ll likely be in 25 years
What Must They Have Thought
The Pharisees didn’t get Jesus at all. That didn’t stop Jesus from ruffling their feathers any chance He got. The thirteenth chapter of Matthew’s gospel begins a litany of stories Jesus told to anybody who listened to Him. The prophets said He would do that so some eyes wouldn’t see what He was talking about,… Continue reading What Must They Have Thought
