GOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the whirlwind of my life is finally settling down a little. there are some pretty crazy things happening, but i finally feel in control again.

gabriel has been sleeping pretty well. he doesn't sleep through the night or anything, but he is getting much better. son and i have been sleeping more, and after some nice naps in the daytime, we are doing well.

i have been watching tons of world cup games. i had forgotten how great of a game soccer is. galaxy, here i come!!

i have been hitting the gym every day. i feel much better than i did a few weeks back. i don't think i processed the stress of work, commutes, and the impending death of my non-dad life very well. i gained a lot of weight and was tired all of the time. but i am back on the wagon and hopefully will continue after i go back to work monday.

bobby and sandy duran had their baby on monday via c-section because of some complications. we are going to go see them later. please pray for them and the baby, they are not totally out of the woods yet. pray for the baby to be healthy despite his premature birth, and for sandy's speedy recovery.

my blog hiatus (if you can call it that) will end soon too. i have pretty much slowed everything down the last 2 weeks. but i am ready to tackle life again.

thanks everybody for your prayers and support.
