Memorial Day and stuff...

Hello. It's been a bit of time since I've posted here...Br. Francis has been quite busy. So I'll share some of it.

Memorial Day has been good this year. Had a nice, long Morning Prayer time this morning. Really have been making an extra effort lately to do more Scripture reading, so did all the readings for this morning. Then, spent part of the afternoon with my fiance Shirley and my future mother-in-law, and cooked burgers and ranch style beans for us.....mmm-mmmm. Pulling an extra radio shift from 3-7pm today. Been pulling a 6-hour shift on Sat. nights for 4 years now, playing Christian music and programs. This Fall it will be 24 years in radio for me (: o ), in which a lot of it I've been privileged for it to have been in Christian radio. So far, I've resisted the temptation to post stories here. Maybe I can continue to resist......

Shirley and I are glad we have some time to plan the wedding, but we're slowly getting things ready. I think (?) we have chosen the colors, the music is lined up, the church is lined up, and we have the minister (Abbot/Bishop Jim). Still deciding on a photographer, caterer, and trying to get the remaining members of Led Zeppelin to play the reception (ok, just kidding on that part, although that would be very cool...!). It would be very difficult for me to fill Bonham's shoes behind the kit! (he's my favorite drummer) Incidentally, had my "How the West Was One" dvd out and watching it the last couple of days....really been getting into the first disc.

We return to okc next month and looking forward to it! Honestly, I really am burned out on Houston Texas--the construction and traffic here is horrendous. Shirley and I are looking forward to our life together and the move to Oklahoma.

Promise to post more! Feel free to email--we'd enjoy hearing from you.


Blessings,
