Thanksgiving is so close, I can almost taste the turkey... Heading to Rochester in a couple minutes. Just thought I'd jump on here for a quick note. Thanksgiving is in two days and I've been doing some recognizing of the many blessings I have in my life. I am blessed beyond my possible imaginations. Thank you to all the people who've been there for me. I wish everyone a great Thanksgiving and a amazing weekend in general.

Tis Sunday night... So church was great today. I had fun at my church as usual. God, I think is working in our church. Despite the fact that we're all sinners and far from perfect. God is using us as a body to minister. It's really amazing what He can do with such an unruly bunch of miscreants...not to say I'm a bad person or anyone else at our church. But God is just amazing how He somehow does things and uses us to do those things...when most of the time we don't deserve to ever be in the conversation. Anyways, it's past my bedtime. Good night y'all.

It has been a really long time...again OK, so I feel like I'm starting anew. That's how long it seems. I want to type a lot. But I'm getting up at 4:30 or so to volunteer at the Rescue Mission downtown. That is WAY early and I have a very busy day ahead of me tomorrow. So that's all I'm going to say. I hope all is well with you and yours. Night!
p.s. You saw correctly. 23design will be up and running very soon. :-)

It has been a really long time... OK, so I guess it hasn't been as long as I thought. But it has been almost 4 months. Which in the internet world, is a lifetime. And I wonder why I didn't have people visiting my site. It hasn't changed. I know when I go to a site enough times that hasn't changed. I stop going back. I hope to get back to updating regularly. I'm back and God has been working! I have a ton to be thankful for as usual. Sure I could complain about a bunch of stuff, but where does that get me in the long run anyway.
I've moved in with my buddy Scott M. and we're enjoying each other's company when we happen to be around when the other is. Which hasn't seemed to be too often. But there's reasons for that. It's amazing how much time is needed to be there for people. But God has made Scott and I social and entertaining people, so we need to use that gift for Him. Even if it means less sleep. I'm starting 23design within the next week. I can't wait to move my portfolio over. I hope anyone that happens to take the time to read this, is doing great. And if you aren't, I'd love to pray for you. Just click the email link up above. That's all I have. God bless, Matt

Clap if you like to win basketball games... I think being as I'm getting older every day. Yeah like that's not obvious. If I can make the time for it and I can play at least 3 times a week, I can be a really good basketball player. Anything less than 3 times a week and I just can't do 40 minute games at full speed. Even tonight with 2 nights of ball since last game, I wasn't able to go full speed the whole time. I just can't put it on autopilot anymore. Man I hope I'm in as good shape as the guys we played tonight. The team's average age was probably 35ish, maybe older. Not that that's old, but to play 40 minutes of hard basketball in league competition against mostly younger competition means you're in at least pretty good shape. I still depend on being semi-young and playing sporadically. Your regiment I think would have to be consistent for a long time to be able to play at an older age. I'm glad we beat them, but props to them for just playing in this league. I had one of my better games of the year in which we won. I'm glad my game is coming back to me. It's a good feeling. Now I just have to get the body into better shape and get jumping again.
On a completely different note, life is good. Here in Syracuse we're going to get pummeled with snow tomorrow and basically everything is shutting down. I tell you one thing, that is a downfall with working at home. You're expected to still work, at least for the most part. I hope Rochester gets hit as well. If the office shuts down, maybe I don't have to work. Probably not. Darn technology. Like I have anything to complain about. I don't have to drive anywhere in the morning. Shame on me. Other than that, I have the house to myself this week. I am loving it. I think I want to get back to having my own apartment. Nothing is in stone, b/c it would be nice to move in with Scott. Stay safe out there folks! God bless, Matt

I keep doing this sporadically... So I'm rather tired and just worn out. Hard to explain. My job isn't overbearingly hard and I have no other good excuses. Just tired. Because of this, I can't say I have too much to say. The jobs are both going well. I'm rather happy with new job and I look forward to not having to work on weekends ...soon. I'm happy to say that I'm Lord-willing going to be moving back into my own apartment soon. This is a good feeling and I look forward to getting my life in order. I pray everyone has a great Sunday!

I just wanted to write a quick note... I had a great Christmas. I hope you did as well. My family was more than gracious! Thanks fam. I had a great couple days. I am blessed with some loving relatives and I look forward to being able to spend more time with all of you. So it's 11:30 and I've been up late the last couple nights, so I'm hitting the bed a little early, so I can get back into work mode tomorrow morning. I wish everyone an amazing new year and may God bless you throughout!

Full-time employment might well be on the horizon... I think God wants us to be consistent with our relationship with Him, first and foremost. This does not mean we are complacent! But not wishy-washy either. He calls us to utterly and without compromise serve Him through constant praise and worship by edifying other Christians, serving our local church and being a testimony to unbelievers around us. Not to stop at "just" being a testimony but to share what we believe, why we believe it, and how they also can have the salvation that Jesus offers so freely. I will not be quiet about my faith and stand up for what I believe in. Just stay quiet in the corner trying not to offend anyone. I will be everything I can be, for God's glory alone!
Other things are going well. It looks like I will be working for NeoSci starting the 18th of December. I couldn't be happier about it! I will be the Multimedia Developer for NeoSci which is actually a sub-division of a company called School Specialty. God is good! Thank you to everyone that was praying for my job search. It means a lot to me! That's all for now. God bless!
