Bend down, O Lord, and hear my prayer;
answer me, for I need your help.
Protect me, for I am devoted to you.
Save me, for I serve you and trust you.
You are my God.
Be merciful to me, O Lord,
for I am calling on you constantly.
Give me happiness, O Lord,
for I give myself to you.
O Lord, you are so good, so ready to forgive,
so full of unfailing love for all who ask for your help.
Listen closely to my prayer, O Lord;
hear my urgent cry.
I will call to you whenever I’m in trouble,
and you will answer me. - Psalm 86:1-7 Favorite Blogs: |

Driving to Alturas Lake today to drop off Katelyn at Luther Heights Church Camp. A beautiful drive. We have camped in the past during this week but life (e.g. work) got in the way.

| Got up to run this morning but my earache that started yesterday was worse. Took some meds which helped a bit with the ache, but now am really spacey. Maybe this will help with my work attitude. Likely a day off as I have a lunch appointment with a former coworker and a church outing at the ballgame tonight.

| 5:15am...5 miles with Moxie. Then went down to the race which I have helped with and ran around about 3 miles as I was helping keep the runners on the course for the various events...no matter how much you put out arrows and signs people still miss turns (or even straight aways). 3 miles later in the day.

3 miles in the evening after watching the debates, wanted time to think. (Guide Blue)
For the past 2.7 years, I have been performing in two job roles at my work. My "old" job was finally posted today. Bitter sweet as I like the program and people, but will be nice to focus on one job and learn more about other programs and activities. Maybe I can finally get my mind settled and focused again as the two different and distinct jobs has been getting harder to balance effectively. Hopefully now I can focus on being a more engaged and effective supervisor too (at least to my own expectations, boss indicates he has been happy with what I have been doing but need to do more in the long run).
