In a whirlwind morning, that started with an hour less sleep, thanks daylight savings, we made it to church a good 25-minutes late. Beth took the boys to Children's Church and I headed up and listened to the message.
Pastor Pete, who is a Rock Star, said something along the following "We have daily faith, but have no idea how strong it is until it is tested with something serious"

Suck
There was a lot more to the message and that wasn't even the main point but still.

For me, the timing, the idea, the coincidence deserves thought, something that I have not adequately given, so I'll talk more on this at a later time.

Since today included a birthday party for a friend, the "Would Have" day may be typical Sunday in terms of menu but the calorie count is fairly accurate.
The interesting thing to me is to realize how much I eat that isn't my "meal". As in a handful here or there, the boys leftover, that stinking candy jar. I don't know, this is not a recommended dietary program, but it can't be all that bad for me either.
Started the day at 204 lbs, will finish around 1900 calories.
Made it though my first weekend!
