Priorities.

By Adam on 1/21/2010 8:19 AM

Generally speaking I am good at going with the flow. I do sometimes get bummed when something I really wanted to do has to take a back burner. On the bright side, it is for something else I really want to do.

Life, the Universe and Everything.

A brief walk through The Holiday Season.

By Adam on 12/17/2009 2:07 PM

I was toastmaster at our meeting today. Names have been removed because it seemed right. The promised entry (to facebook friends anyhow) looking at the "Helicoptor Parent" stuff will be written soon. I just have to finish an upgrade on the Kids Ministry program for multi-campus usage first.

Goodbye Grandpa

By Adam on 11/8/2009 10:48 AM

My grandfather passed on this week. I had been asked to do the eulogy for the service yesterday. It was not easy to deliver, but I hear the family appreciated it and felt it really spoke well to their memories of him. I'll post it here in case anyone that was there, or anyone else really, wants to have it for a keepsake.

Status check.

Gideon has passed the 6 month mark. In all honesty I am glad he has. The first 4 months he was pretty much an eating/diaper messing/crying/sleeping machine. While this may seem cute during the sleeping, and even possibly eating stages it really got boring fairly quickly.(Unless you are a Grandparent or most mothers.) As he started to interact with his environment things started to change. Here are some random ramblings about him.

Toastmasters, a multi-course meal. 7/30/2009

By Adam on 8/6/2009 2:43 PM

A while back I mentioned I may use this as an outlet for the various writings I did to speak in Toastmaster. I have not yet done that, even though I was Toastmaster at two meetings to this point. Correcting that I post for you today the script I created and used for last weeks meeting of Toastmasters here at DRC.

Change is in the air.

By Adam on 6/16/2009 2:04 PM

Ah, springtime! It seems changes made in the spring always have a better chance of working than those made at New Years. In that mindset this week I embarked on what I believe will be the hardest thing I have ever done. In all fairness I have done a little bit of prepping over the last few weeks. I do maintain that it is impossible to prepare for it though. No, this is not a post which was written for release three months ago. It is current, and could be controversial depending on your views.

Monthly Posting, take 2.

It should be noted that I cannot write something the same way twice. I would have made a horrendous monk in ancient times as I cannot even copy something verbatim without some seriously intense work/concentration. With that in mind maybe I shouldn't even be calling this part two...

Another month or two, time to post again ;)

By Adam on 4/13/2009 1:08 PM

I know it has been awhile since I have managed a post. Rest assured I have done a lot of work on getting the kids ministry program documented (2/3 done) so I can post it to this site. I have also worked on getting a picture gallery back up.

Most importantly I have been adjusting to the newest family member being around.

We are proud to welcome Gideon James Myhr to our family. He has been with us for months, but was finally born Friday March 20th @ 8:36AM. He weighed 8 lbs 5 oz and was 21 inches long.

Final (current final?) release of the Kids Ministry Secure CheckIN program.

By Adam on 3/18/2009 11:15 AM

Version 1.3 of the Kids Ministry Secure CheckIN program is done. Minor changes to this version were mostly for enabling a Kids Ministry Coordinator more autonomy in maintaining the system.
