Track and Spring Break and what not

So we just finished Spring Break... and like my tax refund I gave the whole thing to my wife to do with as she pleased... THis was not so much to placate her as it was to resolve an age old argument. It seems that I am a control freak (not new news). But apparently I have always decided where and what we are spending our money on, whether or not I have discussed it with her. So this year we are going to do it her way. Oddly enough it is kind of liberating.

So Spring Break was interesting... Even though I am a control freak in many ways I actually love to be spontanteous, as long as I am not it charge of it. I know that creates an interesting conundrum (spelling?).

SO let me pontificate about myself and my odd personality type. The other day we had a man stand up at church to make an announcement, as part of his announcement he made the comment that He loves change as long as he is in charge of it, he said this as a joke, but I ahve know this man for years and he was not joking... he makes the average control freak look normal. BUt as I listend to what he said I thought you know I am just the opposite.... I love change as long as I am not in charge of it.

If I am in charge, which I do not like to be "In Charge" we will do it the same way we have always done it. I will make my list and we will knock it out slowly but very well. If someone else is "In Charge" I sit in the back and take control. But the truth is I don't like to make descisions that impact other people. I want someone else to make the descisions and then let me do it. I want to be in control of the execution of the plan, I hate being in charge of the plan.

SO this is no where near what I was going to blog about when I started. I would go back and change the title, but that just wouldn't be like me.

Plus I have not fully explored this topic and will have to come back to it. But right now I am at work and am not doing what I am supposed to be doing. So I will end here and return later to discuss why the world is round, and why God should be at the center of it... I guess in Truth the workd is round and God is at the Center of it... Just becuase we don't believe does not menat the the truth is not true.
