My blog has been tagged, which means I have to come up with eight things I haven't told you yet. Here goes.


1. I have an Associates Degree in Engineering Science and a Bachelor's Degree in Economics. I don't know if you could say I am using them right now, but I have to say those eight years of my life went by in a flash, and I think I had fun. The Engineering thing was a dream for me by everyone I knew, and the Economics thing is the result of a bad marketing professor at CU. I think God just had me come out here to Colorado, so I would finally find him.

2. I would love to be rocking and up and coming chef about a year after I complete my culinary arts program at Culinary School of the Rockies. After that with in five years a corporate chef or corporate sous chef and developing restaurant menus.

3. I would love to preach the message at a Sunday worship service. I don't think I have anything profound to say, or do I have any biblical wisdom, but it would be a highlight in my walk with God to be able to spend a week or so just tearing through the bible and other resources to gain a glimpse of God.

4. I love to eat, and I will not allow myself to eat bad food, life is just too short to subject your taste buds to bad food, and to waste a meal on it as well.

5. Amy and I are facing a rough time in her life. Grandma Marge is battling cancer presently, and the doctors have said she is terminal. Grandma has been a second mother to Amy, her brother Thane, and her cousin Cody. Be praying for us as we face this challenge. I know that God will be glorified through this.

6. Amy and I have been married over a year now, and I am grateful for her love and support she has given me these past few months since I lost my job. We truly are complimentary to each other. I have to remember God put her in my life, because he knew I needed some one to take care of and get the focus off of just me.

7. I was a sports nut, but now, I have been getting into cooking shows. Oh wait you've read that about me before. I love M*A*S*H, and we just completed the entire series the other night and Amy wants to start it all over. Okay, I'm game.

8. As I start looking at the end of this stretch of endless days of working (twenty five straight) I see as a starting point in my training to be a chef. I am aware there will be days I have to go in and bail out the staff, because some one didn't show up, or there is an event that requires one more body we don't have, or there will be that day when I have to stay from open to close, because you just don't let your team hang like that.

So there you have it, I have eight things I thought I'd share with about what I was thinking. You will need to thank Priscilla Rathbone for tagging me. I feel enlightened about her as well as I have gained a bit of perspective about what the next six days are about.
