yeah, i know. it has been a while. last week was crazy. i stayed up with the warrior child until 6 am almost every morning last week. i was able to crank through an entire season of 24 in 3 and a half days. . .but it definitely didn't help my health any.
landon is doing much better. thanks to the many of you who have been praying for him and the family. he has been off of the pain medication since friday and is sleeping through the night again.
my sleep study came back positive for apnea (no surprise to myself or the drs.) so i get to go in for another study and try out a cpap mask. for those unfamiliar with sleep apnea, it basically refers to interference with breathing while sleeping. there are multiple reasons for this and multiple solutions, so we are working through them one at a time until we get it all figured out. landon's surgery was due in part to his own struggle with this. i am planning on getting a picture at the sleep center this time. kinda freaky having that many wires connected at the same time. . .and doesn't make sleep very easy.
school starts up in a couple of weeks. pre-service is next week. seminary is starting soon as well (2 weeks from tomorrow). normal life as i have known it recently will soon be a vanishing memory. i'm looking forward to teaching advanced computers this year. . .but not sure when i am going to find time to finalize the curriculum.
so i guess floyd landis had his title taken away. i'm not a huge cycling fan so i haven't really paid attention. mitch albom suggested letting drug companies sponsor cyclists so that instead of having so much scandal and testing, we could see which drug company can produce a winning cyclist. he suggested this might also be good in weight-lifting competitions since it is also surrounded by scandal. i don't know how serious he actually was about this. . .but it made me laugh.
yes, i know. i need more sleep.
more later
peace and java
