Not Much To Say...

It's been a while since I have put up a new post here. I just have not had much to say since the excitement of the beer festival.

I have been doing lots of song writing. I had seven or eight new songs that I played for Heather the other night. After playing them all as a group I was really underwhelmed by them; there may be one or two good ones out of the lot.

I have also been reading quite a bit. Since I have had my arm injury, I have not been able to bike to work, so I have had extra time to read on the train, and I have been making time at lunch to read as well. I think the reading is what has been triggering the song writing.

Tomorrow we leave for Paris to celebrate Heather's 30th birthday. I am really looking forward to the trip, mostly because we are taking the train and we are not flying. As you have probably heard flights out of London are a bit insane right now.

Soon I will be starting to help with music at church. I am also really looking forward to this because I have been feeling a bit like I have been "burying my talents in the ground" since moving to the UK.

Matthew 25:25 "And I was afraid, and went away and hid your talent in the ground. See, you have what is yours.' 26 But his master answered and said to him, "You wicked, lazy slave, you knew that I reap where I did not sow and gather where I scattered no seed. 27 "Then you ought to have put my money in the bank, and on my arrival I would have received my money back with interest. 28 "Therefore take away the talent from him, and give it to the one who has the ten talents.' 29 For to everyone who has, more shall be given, and he will have an abundance; but from the one who does not have, even what he does have shall be taken away. 30 Throw out the worthless slave into the outer darkness; in that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. (NASB)

Yikes.
