Listening and loving “Lifesong” by Casting Crowns. Thanks sisters for putting it on my ipod. Just before I left to Finland I gave Raakel my ipod and she loaded it up for moi. I know what you are thinking, how can you be married to Jonathan … dj. mr. music. Jonathan? I guess opposites balance each other? I know I discover songs way after other people do but can’t help but notice how the song kinda sums up my thoughts for the last couple weeks “such small sacrifice… may the words I say and the things I do and my lifesong bring a smile to you… and my lifesong sing to you”.

The first freeze of November, with some promised snow. I really don’t mind snow at all, it just feels too early that’s all. And now the long wait for the spring has begun. My bike is hibernating a bit earlier than I expected to pack her up for the cold months. I was riding Thursday night home from downtown and suddenly my wheel swerved and I slide off the side of my bike. It was probably alot funnier than I’m actually describing it as usually any drama is accompanied by some alarming shouts and squawks on my part, which kind of scares the most reserved of the Finns.
