Spirituality. Politics. Music. Life.
For once, I got to go to the songwriter group at Tom and Cary’s house. They meet each week, either there or in Oak Cliff at Bruce and Lisa’s house. But I almost *never* get to go. Last Fall, I repeatedly wanted to, but had conflicts almost every Monday…band rehearsal…meetings at church. I was literally […]
Read MoreWow, what a productive day. Great morning at church with a BIG crowd. Finished writing a song I’d been working on for a few weeks. Then, played at Schrieber’s chili cook off at night. Played a set of my own music, which was quite nice. Well received too. All in all, it’s rare to have […]
Read More“There’s work to do, that’s plain to see,Laundry piled as high as me,But the Beatles said just “Let it Be”And that sounds like good advice.”— David Lamotte We had an especially lazy Saturday. Not a thing on the schedule, and a whole day to lounge around the house. Which is something everybody needs, now and […]
Read MoreNorman Suggs is a friend I met via the internet some years back. He’s only over in Stephenville, but the way the world works, it’s doubtful we’d ever have met without our mutual online geekiness. He’s had cancer this past year, and has been undergoing treatment. Today on Facebook, he posted the blog below, which […]
Read MoreToday, I had lunch with an old friend named Gene at the Garden Cafe. The Garden Cafe is a great little restaurant, literally around the corner from the log house in East Dallas….I mean a block away. It’s been there for years, we lived in the neighborhood for years, taking our daughter to play in […]
Read MoreThis morning, I had a 9 am meeting in Frisco. As an aside, this violates the terms of one of my own core life values: “Rarely does anything good happen before 10 am.” “Rarely” allows me to include the occasional outlier, and still get at the meaning. Lot’s of stuff *happens* before 10 am. Just […]
Read MoreWe had a fantastic Leadership Council meeting at church tonight. That’s not to say that all the news was easy or good. We had some disappointing financial news near the year-end. Namely, that we didn’t have the big December “push” that often comes late-year to balance out our budget. So, we started this year in […]
Read MoreI ought to call it “Northaven’s Staff.” Whatever you call them, I have to say I’m mighty proud to work with these folks. This afternoon was a busy afternoon for all of who were here in the office. Mary Clair, Chris, Mindy and me were all in and out of each other’s offices, talking about […]
Read MoreThis afternoon, Maria had her last “Cotillion” at Prestonwood. A part of that was a chance for me to dance with her a couple of times. There were a lot of kids and parents there that we knew from different parts of life….Maria’s school…church…sports, etc…. It’s amazing to see how all these boys and girls […]
Read MoreHad a GREAT time last night at the Circle Concert Series in Lucas. It was great to be with all the incredible musicians there, and to get the chance to play some of my own songs. I’m grateful to Paul and to Weird for getting me out there, and hope to come back again. This […]
