Sadness...and Happiness.

I broke our camera. :( This is a sad event. It is not the saddest event it could have been though. Despite the screen being incredibly screwed up and unable to show you pictures or where you're aiming, after a brief experiment I found that I can still take pictures that function...I just can't see them until I load them on a computer. So it's kind of like the old days of film pictures-when you never knew if you took a good pic until you got it printed.

Anyway, I shut it in the door of Pilot as it was falling out...a double badness. We'll see what the Bozich Budget says about a new one...But until we get a new one, I'd say the pictures are likely to be more rare (or just off the web) on my blog. Sorry for the disappointment.

In the HAPPINESS arena, last night Tommie played a "Down With the Deficit" concert at our church. Like many churches nowadays, we are a bit behind on our budget. Tommie and our worship leader, Drew Collins, decided to do something to try and help by playing a benefit show. They charged $5 at the door and took a love offering in an effort to raise money that went straight to the church. It was a great success! We raised quite a bit of money and had such a great time! Both of the guys played original music that was phenomenal. The soundguy for the night also recorded everything, so you might be able to hear this fun show in the near future! yay for John.

Drew's wife, Sarah, sold some cards that are adapted from her paintings and donated 50% of her profit to the budget and Tommie gave $2 of every KELLEEN cd sold to the budget also. Some of our Starbuck's friends also sold $1 lattes at our little coffee bar...though I'm not positive that was going to the budget. Anyway, it was fun to see people use their "talents" for the church and to believe that God just might be providing for us with "talents" that can also provide monetarily. It was great.

So, sadness to happiness, a good weekend overall.
