Sat July 24th 2010

Greetings all,

Well made it through another week (Thank you Lord). Today is Saturday the 24th and it’s a really big day here in Utah. For those of you who don't know, the 24th here is called “Pioneer Days”. It all has to do with the pioneers who settled Utah, yes, they were Mormons. Pioneer Days is huge here, even bigger than like the 4th of July. If the 24th lands during the work week you get the day off... pretty crazy. Utahans are big into their history here and do all they can to make sure it’s not forgotten.

This week at work was ok. Started off really busy then died off. I think mainly due to the holiday. I have not been online much as a late. By the time I get home I’m pretty beat. Last week Facebook hit the 500 million user mark… how crazy is that? I’m glad Facebook is around though. It’s allowed me to get in contact with some long last family members and friends. Plus stay current with the latest news and developments. I’ve met some really wonderful people on there. I’ve become really good friends with a pastor from Uganda Africa. I’ve added some information about his ministry on my website (www.anchorholds.net) so if you get a chance check that out. He is a really awesome guy who loves serving the Lord. His contact information is there as well. They can always use an extra dollar or two. It really doesn’t take much, the exchange rate there to the dollar is 2,000. So a little goes a long way.

I received some disturbing news this last week. In fact it was from FB that I found out. A dear sweet young mother that we have known since she was about 10 posted that she was going through some tests for cancer. Soon as I get more information I’ll be posting that so we can get as many people as possible praying for her. We take life so for granted, and that is the wrong way to live for sure. Be sure and tell the ones you love how much they mean to you… the chance may never come again. I’ve lost a son, both parents and grandparents, and I can tell you the biggest regrets in my life are not telling them how much I loved them.

That’s all this time around. I try to keep these short, I know people’s attention spans have gotten shorter and shorter.

May God bless and keep you always,
Tim
