databasing it Access style

I've been on one lately. I've spent the last week creating an inventory database in Access while at the same time teaching myself Access. I can only honestly say it has to be a supernatural knowledge download from God. I tried to do this once before but I was completely lost. I couldn't get anything to work the way I wanted it to. But since I convinced my boss that the spreadsheets were eventually going to kill us and that a database was the only way to manage our ever expanding inventory, things have been kicking! Now don't get me wrong, I've seen some pretty amazing databases in Access and some would say I'm a sissy for using Access in the first place, but what I've done with what I know deserves a virtual pat on the back. Heck, I'd upload screen shots if it wasn't such a boring thing to be bragging about. It's still not finish and has a long way to go but I feel confident in saying that I believe this will be adopted at the new inventory management system for my region of the state. w00t!

Dreaming

I finished another book. Dreaming with God by Bill Johnson. I feel a hunger and a thirst in my soul for God that I don't recall ever having before. God is definitely shaping and molding me into something. I know there's a wall I need to get through. I can't scale it. I need to walk through the door. God want to co-labor with me and I want to with him. I want to dream with God. Jesus said we are friends of God and because of this he shares with us and we can share with him. He doesn't want robotic followers. He want us to share our dreams and desire with him!  

hello

Slept in this morning. The dinger on the oven randomly went off. I'm still laying in bed. I need to get some coffee going. Even if it is noon, that doesn't mean that you skip coffee. This is going to be a short week. I took Thursday off and the following Monday. We're going to get out of town and have some fun. Hopefully this will kick start my desire work hard. I'm burned out as of right now. Everything I'm asked to do makes me shutter. It's not that I hate what I do but I sometimes hate what I do.

Lately I've had the urge to produce something. So much of what I do is service and keeping things running. Of course a lot odlf jobs are like this but I feel like I have nothing to show at the end of the day/week/month. I want to be creative and produce something. Make something happen. I'm not sure what but I'm know that's what I want to do. I even see the construction crews when I'm driving to work and I think that those guys are really making something. Not that I want to work construction but I know that I want to be apart of something the produces. I want to use my imagination for something more than virus removal and how fast I can setup a computer.

Just some thoughts. Not quite sure what it is yet but I'm leaning towards something.

The night's almost over. Another Monday. Tear. I got to get out of the office today. That was a plus. I like that it rained. I like the changing of the seasons. I don't like being stuck in a season forever. I love when winter first pops its head in but but give me a month and I'm ready for spring. Changing seasons is one of the most amazing things on earth.

Andrea and I are going to Redding in a two more weeks. I'm excited. I'm just not showing it with my punctuation. We're going to visit friends but most of all we're going to spend time with God. I feel like our personal season is in middle of change. I feel like it's been this way for a couple of months and in two weeks it will reach its peak. God will speak to us there. He speaks to everyone everywhere(whether they are listening or not) but some times when you pick up and go your mind and heart are set on hearing. The more you expect from God the more he expects to give you. I'm serious about this. Andrea needs a miracle and we know God will heal the MS. I don't know what the future holds, but when I put my trust in God I know it's in good hands.

The seeds are planted in fertile ground, now all we need is the son.

Peace out internet world.
